  • Preventing software component timer processing issues
    Patent number: 10379928
    Abstract: Method and system are provided for preventing local processing problems interfering with a time-sensitive validation process. The method monitors an elapsed time of an instance of a time-sensitive validation process of a software component including dispatching of the process instance and determines if the elapsed time is significantly greater than a preset processing time. If so, the method may dynamically alter error processing of the time-sensitive validation process of the software component.
