Abstract: A method for multi-user CAx editing includes monitoring an operational state of a processor of a first CAx client, receiving, at a communication filter of the first CAx client, a first remote operation to be executed by the first CAx client in a CAx environment, populating the first remote operation to a queue formed in a memory structure in response to a determination that the operational state of the processor of the first CAx client is executing a local operation when the first remote operation is received, and executing the first remote operation in the CAx environment on the first CAx client in response to a determination that the operational state of the processor of the first CAx client is idle. A computer program product such as a computer readable medium and a computer system corresponding to the above method are also disclosed herein.

Abstract: A method for multi-user CAx editing includes receiving a hierarchical message in an asynchronous client-server application, the hierarchical message corresponding to an element of a CAx model in a CAx environment, identifying a reference portion of the hierarchical message upon which a remaining portion of the element depends, the reference portion being unique to the element, comparing the reference portion to a dictionary of the CAx environment, receiving the reference portion of the element as a return output in response to identifying a match for the reference portion in the dictionary, and creating the reference portion of the element within the CAx environment in response to identifying no match for the reference portion in the dictionary. A computer program product such as a computer readable medium and a computer system corresponding to the above method are also disclosed herein.
