  • Fitness based routing
    Patent number: 7961711
    Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for fitness based routing. Embodiments of the invention significantly improve the likelihood that routing nodes contained in routing table have adequate (or even relatively increased) ability to transfer and process messages in an overlay network. Thus, when the node is to make a routing decision for a message, the node has some assurances that any selected routing node is adequate (or is at least the best currently available). Further, a sending node can take preference to routing nodes with higher fitness values when sending a message. Preference to higher fitness metric values further insures that messages are adequately transferred and processed. Accordingly, embodiments of the invention can be used to route messages in a manner that optimizes bandwidth and provides efficient routing capability.

  • Generating a dynamic web service and dynamic service surrogate for legacy application components
    Patent number: 7593994
    Abstract: Example embodiments of the present invention provide a mechanism for allowing developers to define new interfaces and insert custom translational code that implements these new interfaces for legacy components that otherwise cannot communicate in a web service environment. These new interfaces are then exposed to the web service client in such a way that abstracts the web service client from the legacy components interfaces. The objects that implement the new interfaces are referred to herein as “service surrogates” and the new interfaces will be commonly referred to as a, “surrogate interfaces.” These surrogate interfaces may be initialized along with an instance of the service surrogate upon startup of an application that offers the services. In addition, a dynamic web service can simultaneously run along with the service surrogate for those services that may not need the features offered by the service surrogates.

  • Dynamic service generation for legacy components
    Patent number: 7590988
    Abstract: The present invention provides a mechanism that allows an administrative event to trigger or cause the generation of a dynamic web service during initialization of legacy application components. Similar to other types of static tooling approaches, the dynamic approach—as supported herein—uses available metadata describing an interface for communicating with legacy components. Rather than generating and manifesting the web service via tooling on a one time or occasional bases, however, example embodiments provide for the generation of the web service by the supporting infrastructure as a standard part of application initialization. Upon stopping the application, a termination sequence is provided that stops the corresponding dynamic web service and deletes the web service description used to generate the dynamic web service. Accordingly, every time the application is started the available metadata will need to be consulted and a consistent service will be built on-the-fly.

  • Interface infrastructure for creating and interacting with web services
    Patent number: 7512957
    Abstract: A web services namespace pertains to an infrastructure for enabling creation of a wide variety of applications. The infrastructure provides a foundation for building message-based applications of various scale and complexity. The infrastructure or framework provides APIs for basic messaging, secure messaging, reliable messaging and transacted messaging. In some embodiments, the associated APIs are factored into a hierarchy of namespaces in a manner that balances utility, usability, extensibility and versionability.
