20100057707 | QUERY-ORIENTED MESSAGE CHARACTERIZATION - Processing messages. Messages are processed based on a characteristic derived from information in messages, metadata about messages, or other information external to messages. Values for one or more pieces of information are received. At least one of the values for one or more pieces of information is associated with a first message. Queries are received. The queries specify one or more of the pieces of information. At least a portion of the plurality of values for the one or more pieces of information is processed in conjunction with the one or more queries to create one or more normalized characteristics for the first message. The one or more normalized characteristics for the first message are in a same format irrespective of the format of the pieces of information. The first message, and/or other messages, is processed based on at least one of the one or more normalized characteristics. | 03-04-2010 |
20100057933 | PROBABILISTIC MESH ROUTING - Routing messages using unreliable routing data. A method includes receiving a message from a computer readable communication medium. Characteristic properties of the message are calculated so as to determine state requirements for a service instance at a service for processing of the message. An attempt is made to acquire an appropriate service instance that satisfies the state requirements for processing the message. A determination is made that attempting to acquire an appropriate service instance that satisfies the state requirements for processing the message is not successful at acquiring an appropriate service instance. As a result, the message is redirected using an unreliable local cache of routing information and without coordination between processing nodes. | 03-04-2010 |
20110032847 | MULTIPLEXED COMMUNICATION FOR DUPLEX APPLICATIONS - The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for multiplexed communication for duplex applications. Embodiments of the invention facilitate a multiplexed variant of long polling over a request/reply communication medium that (potentially significantly) reduces the resources utilized when exchanging messages. The lightweight address generation mechanism facilitates polling and routing for a pool of many clients and many services while minimizing allocated resources to each established session. Further, the benefits of a lower latency bidirectional communication medium between clients and services can be utilized. | 02-10-2011 |
20110153713 | OUT OF ORDER DURABLE MESSAGE PROCESSING - The dispatching of messages from an incoming message pool to service instance(s). Message are received non-destructively and exclusively from the incoming message pool. If a particular service instance receives a message out of order, the processing of the message is deferred without releasing the exclusivity in the incoming message queue. Thus, the target service instance may continue to process one or more other messages until the target service instance is ready to process one or more deferred messages. In this way, messages may be pulled from the incoming message queue for dispatch to service instance(s), while maintaining correct order of processing, even if messages do not arrive into the incoming message queue in the correct order. | 06-23-2011 |
20110264738 | HIERARCHICALLY DISASSEMBLING MESSAGES - The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for hierarchically disassembling messages. The functionality of disassemblers and framers is decoupled such that framers for different types of messages can be utilized at the same level in a hierarchy without having to also change disassemblers. Virtually any level of disassembly is possible to address any corresponding level of message nesting. Disassembly can be performed on a per message or per session basis. | 10-27-2011 |

20130263087 | THREAD-AGILE EXECUTION OF DYNAMIC PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE PROGRAMS - Methods, systems, and products are provided for thread-agile dynamic programming language (‘DPL’) program execution. Thread-agile DPL program execution may be carried out by receiving, in a message queue, a message for an instance of a DPL program and determining whether the host application has a stored state object for the instance of the DPL program identified by the message. If the host application has a stored state object for the DPL program, thread-agile DPL program execution may also carried out by retrieving the state object; preparing a thread available from a thread pool for execution of the instance of the DPL program in dependence upon the state object and an execution context for the instance of the DPL program; providing, to an execution engine for executing the DPL program, the state object and the prepared thread; and passing the message to the execution engine. | 10-03-2013 |

Thread-agile DPL program execution may be carried out by receiving, in a message queue, a message for an instance of a DPL program and determining whether the host application has a stored state object for the instance of the DPL program identified by the message.
