The Eugene Water & Electric Board, founded in 1911, is Oregon's largest customer-owned utility, serving over 86,000 customers in Eugene by providing electricity, water, and steam. The document details the integration of GIS systems and applications for outage management, offering access to maps and data through web-based solutions, including the ArcFM Silverlight viewer. It also emphasizes the need for seamless communication between various applications and data formats like XML and JSON.

- 10. “The ArcFM Viewer application must have the ability to receive requests …” Silverlight LocalMessageSender and LocalMessageReceiver The channel is started by the LocalMessageReceiver and one or more LocalMessageSenders can communicate with it. The receiver can also respond to the original message which promotes a two-way conversation, if needed. The message that is sent can be simple text or complex structures that can be serialized, such as XML or JSON data.

Editor's Notes
- #3: One of the challenges in working with a Silverlight application is dealing with external events other than the typical asynchronous communication used to retrieve data. We usually think of a Silverlight application as a "pull only" client and face the dilemma of trying to "push" data to it to get it do something without direct user intervention.

- #10: There are a couple of strategies that could be used to accomplish this (e.g. a polling thread), but to provide a more "real-time" experience to the user, we chose to use local messaging via the LocalMessageSender and LocalMessageReceiver classes first introduced in Silverlight 3. Local messaging allows the ability for multiple Silverlight applications (plug-ins) running on a single computer to set up and use a communication channel.
