| 20090327292 | ENSURING CONSISTENCY AMONG SHARED COPIES OF A DATA ELEMENT - Disclosed is a “light weight” protocol used to coordinate shared copies of a data element. A central repository holds a master copy of the data element. Applications “subscribe” to the data element (or to an aspect of it) by sending a message to the central repository. Whenever the data element (or aspect) is changed, applications that have subscribed to the data element (or aspect) are notified of the change. When an application wishes to change the value of a subscribed aspect, it sends an update request to the central repository. The central repository changes the master copy of the data aspect to the requested value and then informs all subscribed applications of the new data value. If two applications both wish to change the value of the same data aspect, they send their update requests, and the central repository processes them in the order in which they are received. | 12-31-2009 |
