Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for improving failure recovery in a distributed system during execution of a processing chain. In the context of a method, an example embodiment includes implementing, by the distributed system, a task coordination state machine corresponding to the processing chain. This example embodiment of the method further includes discovering, using the task coordination state machine, an error occurring during execution of the processing chain. Finally, the example embodiment of the method further includes reporting the error by a failure report generator service and recovering, by a failure recovery service, from the error. Corresponding apparatuses and computer program products are also provided.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for improving throughput in a distributed transaction processing system. In the context of a method, an example embodiment includes receiving information regarding a change in state of a particular transaction recorded by the distributed transaction processing system. This example embodiment of the method further includes updating, by state machine query circuitry of a networked device within the distributed transaction processing system and based on the received information, a state of a primary state machine associated with the particular transaction. Finally, the example embodiment of the method further includes updating, by state machine query circuitry of a networked device within the distributed transaction processing system and based on the received information, a state of a primary state machine associated with the particular transaction.

Abstract: A method, computing device and computer program product are provided in order to implement a test plan in an efficient manner. In the context of a method, a plurality of test messages from each of a plurality of different source systems are stored. The plurality of test messages may include test messages to be captured in an electronic health record. The method constructs a test plan. The test plan identifies an end point. The test plan also includes one or more test messages that have been previously stored and respective anticipated outcomes at the end point following transmission of the test messages. The method also includes transmitting the test messages of the test plan and receiving feedback regarding the outcome following transmission of the test messages of the test plan to the end point. The method also includes determining whether the test plan was successfully executed based upon the feedback.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for facilitating medical case charting. A method may include causing presentation of one or more default value options for a case being charted. The default value options may have been captured from data charted in one or more previously charted cases. The method may further include determining a selection of one or more presented default value options. The method may additionally include copying the selected default value options to the case being charted. Corresponding apparatuses and computer program products are also provided.
