dotnet distributed apps:
I understand it sounds stupid, but I need to tag an app "distributed"
with minimum damage (and effort ;)).
I want to produce an app for my diploma project for the uni, it will be
a web app because I'm all into web apps. We have discussed everything
with the professor who will be supervsing the project. He's a sane guy
but he told me the board that will review the project mostly consists
of weird people who fall either for a lot of elaborate maths (which is
not possible by the nature of my app), or for specific buzzwords that
are around in semi academic circles in Russia. Buzzword of the day is
"distributed".
I have a big app that uses ASP.NET/C#, SQL server DB (lots of SPs) and
some client-side AJAX and is mostly about tracking stuff, reporting and
workflow. I need to tag it distributed and produce several pages of
hype purporting how distributed it is.

Can you give me and idea on how to make it distributed? :)
People in the board in question don't know anytihng about coding so I
can pull their leg to some degree, not much tho :)

It looks like your application is already "distributed" or "distributable".
- You have several distincts components that you list in your message
(client-side AJAX, asp.net code and stored procedures).
- These components are or could easily be physically located on different
computers connected by a network (for example in your case: client, web
server and database server).
These 2 points together make your application a distributed application.
