Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to secure document transfer. Secure document transfer may be automatically performed once an event date is obtained. Documents may be automatically generated based on the event date and subsequently stored in a document platform. An electronic message may next be automatically generated to include contact information determined according to the recipient information of a recipient associated with the event, an indication of the set of documents, and a set of event instructions determined based on the event type. The electronic message may then be automatically transmitted to the recipient.

Abstract: A plurality of batch lists are maintained by a channel in order to improve the efficiency of the channel in performing messaging between a sender and a receiver. For example, a Next Batch list is used to prefetch messages to be sent to the receiver from the sender; a Current Batch list includes the messages currently being transmitted to the receiver or waiting confirmation; and an Acknowledged Batch List includes the messages confirmed by the receiver. This allows the functions of prefetching messages, sending messages and deleting confirmed messages to be performed in parallel.

Abstract: A highly available, high-performance memory queue. Locking of the queue is minimized in order to provide a highly available queue and to improve performance of the queue. Multiple updates of the queue can occur under a single lock. Further, messages of the queue are persistent. A time-initiated checkpointing process, as well as the storing of message information on a recovery log, ensures the persistence of the queue messages.

Abstract: Memory resident queues are monitored at predefined time intervals. When the monitoring indicates that a particular queue is not being serviced at a desired level, then action is taken to sweep one or more messages from the queue. The sweeping of the messages frees up system resources associated with the messages, thus allowing other tasks to be serviced. If, after the sweeping, it is determined that the queue can handle additional messages, then one or more messages are placed back on the queue.

Abstract: When a processor becomes inactive, queues resident in the memory of that processor become inaccessible. Thus, in order to access those queues, an active processor takes over ownership of one or more of the inaccessible queues. Each queue may be rebuilt prior to its take over to ensure that it has up-to-date information.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for switching messages from a primary message channel to a secondary message channel in a message queuing system in which messages are placed in a first transmission queue of a local system for transmission to a remote system via a primary message channel. A local queue manager continuously checks to see whether a high water mark has been reached in the first transmission queue, indicating an apparent failure in the primary message channel. On determining such an apparent failure in the primary message channel, the queue manager determines whether the secondary message channel is associated with the first transmission queue. If so, the queue manager activates the secondary message channel to serve said first transmission queue. If, on the other hand, the secondary message channel is associated with another transmission queue, the queue manager transfers messages already in the first queue to the other queue and redirects any new messages intended for the first queue to the other queue.

Abstract: A common shared queue is provided, which includes a plurality of local queues. Each local queue is resident on a storage medium coupled to a processor. The local queues are monitored, and when it is determined that a particular local queue is being inadequately serviced, then one or more messages are moved from that local queue to one or more other local queues of the common shared queue.
