| Invoking
(or calling) is a means for one piece of code to let another piece
of code to perform some operation. In a Service
Oriented Architecture, invocations are usually performed over
a network. In some cases, the two services
may exist on the same physical machine or VM and there is no need
to travel the network.

Invocation usually
involves a client calling some interfaces operation. This triggers
a client-side stub to serialize
the call and the parameters and move them across the network to
the provider where the operation
is carried out.
