摘要:
A platform (e.g. game console) and application (e.g. game title) independent ecosystem for the creation, consumption and trade of user generated digital content permits any application operating on any platform to participate in a market driven economy for user generated digital objects (UGDOs). The trading system is independent of (i.e. external to) all participating applications. A metadata attribution method for UGDOs in combination with heterogeneous application support through well-defined interfaces facilitates unlimited participation. Attributed metadata may be understood and consumed across platforms and applications. Flexible UGDO rights enforcement techniques in combination with a flexible fair exchange service for those rights support all manner of UGDOs and commercial transactions therefore. Participating application may provide rights enforcement in some instances. The nature of enforcement may rest on the nature of UGDO content, rights in UGDOs or author preferences. The trading system assures that all transactions in the UGDO economy are secure, fault tolerant and atomic, providing integrity and confidence in the UGDO economy.

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for coordinating application sate and communication mediums state. Embodiments of present invention provide a mechanism for a communication medium to provide a view of message content for a message (a peek) to an application along with the communication medium preventing further access to the message (a lock) until the application signals back how to handle the message. Thus, the communication medium indicates that the message is locked for the duration of processing at the application. Indicating that the message is locked significantly reduces the chance of the message being provided to another application (or another consumer of the same application) during the time the application is processing the view of message content.

Data interchanges are processed so that problematic individual elements within the data interchanges do not cause the processing of the data interchanges to be suspended unless there is a catastrophic error. The data interchanges are split up by flat file and/or XML disassemblers of a message engine into independent messages even if some elements are incorrect or cause processing failures. Those messages in the interchange that may be processed are processed, while those that would cause processing errors are suspended in a suspend queue for recovery processing. Even when a message is placed in the suspend queue, processing continues with the next independent message in the data interchange. Messages that are placed in the suspend queue for lack of routing information may be resumed by providing the routing information and again attempting to route the previously suspended message. The method of the invention is scalable since it works regardless of the size of the interchange or its individual message elements.
摘要:
A method of generating code that permits client access to a business process orchestration running on a server as a web service using the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). Business process orchestrations in XLANG are converted to a web service implementation description from which the Web services code is generated. During runtime, when a SOAP request message comes into the server, it is passed to the target web method. The message is then passed to a Web services adapter that submits the request for further processing by the backend system. The response is forwarded to the Web services adapter, which returns the response as a SOAP response message to the client.

Systems and methods for reducing the latency incurred during the publication of a message in a message publication system are provided. In a message publication system wherein the publishing component and the receiving component are located within the same processing space, several of the latency components that are usually unavoidably incurred may be eliminated. In such a system, the messaging queue is not used as a medium between the two components but is instead used as a secondary back-up storage. This results in the elimination of one latency component as the message is directly published from the publishing component to the receiving component. Further time reductions or optimizations occur when the durability, or reliability, of the message publication is not a concern and the messaging queue can be completely disregarded. Yet another optimization occurs when the identity of the subscriber is known in advance by the publisher.

摘要:
A business process adapter converts a SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) message into a business process message. A body path and a node encoding type are defined for the business process adapter. And, when the SOAP message is received, the business process adaptor extracts the node of the SOAP message at the location defined by the body path and encodes the node according to the defined node encoding type. Additionally, the business process adapter converts a business process message into a SOAP message using a defined content encoding type and a defined format of the SOAP message. When the business process message is received from the business process management server, the business process adapter encodes the body of the business process message according to the defined content encoding type and generates the SOAP message from the encoded body according to the defined format.
摘要:
The present invention provides a novel technique for Web-based asynchronous processing of synchronous requests. The systems and methods of the present invention utilize a synchronous interface in order to couple with systems that synchronously communicate (e.g., to submit queries and receive results). The interface enables reception of synchronous requests, which are queued and parsed amongst subscribed processing servers within a server farm. Respective servers can serially and/or concurrently process the request and/or portions thereof via a dynamic balancing approach. Such approach distributes the request to servers based on server load, wherein respective portions can be re-allocated as server load changes. Results can be correlated with the request, aggregated, and returned such that it appears to the requester that the request was synchronously serviced. The foregoing mitigates the need for clients to perform client-side aggregation of asynchronous results.
摘要:
A transport-neutral in-order delivery in a distributed environment is provided. Typically, in-order delivery guarantees that sequential orders received by a transport engine are sent out in the same order they are received. Such delivery may be forwarded either to another transport engine or to some application. In case there is a failure of delivery of messages in a stream, the messages are either resubmitted, suspended, or moved to backup. A user or administrator can configure the desired action. Additionally, any stream can be manually aborted or a specified port can be unenlisted. Deliverable streams of messages are locked on to a back-end transport engines or applications and dequeued sequentially unless one of the above mentioned failure scenarios occurs.
摘要:
A system and method of processing a message in an asynchronous architecture is provided. In the method, a determination is made that a response to a message sent by an instance of software code is to be received, where the response indicates whether the message succeeded or failed. Another determination is made as to whether the response has been received. If the response has not been received, the instance of the software code is stored in memory, thereby suspending the instance. The response is received, the instance resumed and the response is processed.
