At least one copy of the worker application should be running.
The method signature of the invoke method has a formal target parameter, which is a placeholder for the receiver object reference, the called method, and the list of parameters (if any) for the called method.
The following code fragment shows the use of the invoke method to make an asynchronous call to execute the getHistory method on an instance of the Customer class.
