Abstract: In a transaction processing system that includes a plurality of client processes coupled to a server process, the server process supports execution of transactions generated by the client processes. The server process includes, for each client process being served, one or more transaction message control mechanisms. Each transaction message control mechanism includes a named processing object that includes a name identifying the object. The named processing object also includes an input process that receives all transaction request messages naming the object and identifying the originating client process. The input process dispatches a transaction process for each transaction request message received from the respective client process. Each transaction process oversees transaction execution and receives transaction output. A transaction process provides a transaction output message for the originating client process.

Abstract: A transaction processing system, adapted for use in a computer system having a host computer running applications and user terminals connected to the host computer, determines the transaction attributes for each transaction received by the host computer and dynamically associates a transaction protocol to be used in processing that particular transaction. The transaction protocol specifies such attributes as synchronization paradigm and flow control. The synchronization paradigm and flow control are used only for as long as the transaction remains in the system and are used only for that transaction.
