Abstract: Aspects of the invention include computer-implemented methods, systems, and computer program products that assign a centralized event tag to each communication interface of a plurality of communication interfaces of a chip interconnected in a hierarchy through the communication interfaces to a plurality of chips in a multiprocessing system. A determination is performed of whether to accept or drop a message associated with an event received at one of the communication interfaces of the chip based on comparing a local centralized event tag with a received centralized event tag. The local centralized event tag is updated based on one or more advancing rules to maintain event synchronization between the chip and the plurality of chips.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a scalable onboarding system and methods for efficiently onboarding one or more new partner channels into credit product company's system. The onboarding system and methods may create, use, and test different types of logic: core logic and partner-specific logic. The core logic may be logic that performs common functions among the partner channels, and the partner-specific logic may be logic that performs partner-specific functions. The partner-specific logic may originate from modular and customizable logic, modified to include partner-specific branding elements, functions, and configurations. Each time a new partner channel is onboarded into the credit product company's system, in some embodiments, only the partner-specific logic may need to be created and tested. This allows new partner channels to be quickly added without requiring new logic be written for each new partner channel.
