  • Patent number: 9626235
    Abstract: A method of managing an asynchronous messaging queue with a client computer in an asynchronous messaging system, where the client computer is programmed to store an manage the asynchronous messaging queue, includes receiving a reactive message in the asynchronous messaging queue, the reactive message including an identification of a previously initiated message and an action to be performed on the previously initiated message; and upon determining that the previously initiated message has already been received in the asynchronous messaging queue, performing the action on the previously initiated message with the client computer.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: April 18, 2017
    Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION

  • Patent number: 8276160
    Abstract: Managing an asynchronous messaging queue with a client computer in an asynchronous messaging system, where the client computer is programmed to store an manage the asynchronous messaging queue, includes receiving a reactive message in the asynchronous messaging queue, the reactive message including an identification of a referenced message and an action to be performed on the referenced message; and performing the action on the previously initiated message with the client computer if the referenced message is present in the asynchronous messaging queue.

  • Publication number: 20100122123
    Abstract: A method for guaranteeing consistency of functional parts across a software installation in a computer that is platform and language independent. Specifically, each software installation will contain a part, for example a DLL that exports a function or variable, which is available to other parts in the installation. All other parts in the installation, for example, executable files and other DLLs, will reference the exported resource. The name of the exported resource should evoke a particular software level and be specific to the software installation it belongs to. All other software installations on the same computer will follow this practice. Thus, all parts in a software installation will effectively reference a software level (via an exported resource). When the multiple parts of software are loaded into computer memory prior to execution of the software, the operating system will attempt to resolve references to the exported resource.
