  • Event broker
    Publication number: 20060031572
    Abstract: The invention provides for in-process and inter-process event notification in a distributed computing environment. The event notification system and method utilizes a hierarchical namespace to determine events of interest to registered subscribers. If an event falls within the hierarchical namespace of a registered subscriber, the event is received in the subscriber's queue. The use of a hierarchical namespace enables a subscriber to process events intended for the subscriber even though additional events are presented to the subscriber.
