Abstract
In a data processing network with distributed applications a notification is sent from a sender to a receiver via a notification service with which the receiver is registered in order to receive notifications satisfying a predetermined test criterion. The predetermined test criterion includes comparison of at least two values concerning the sender object. Applications include telecommunication networks.
Claims10
A process for sending a notification in a data processing network with distributed applications from a sender to at least one receiver via a notification service with which said receiver or each receiver is registered in order to receive notifications satisfying a predetermined test criterion, wherein:
- said sender sends to said notification service a notification including a set of at least two values concerning said sender;
- for each registered receiver, said notification service checks if said set of values satisfies said predetermined test criterion associated with said receiver;
- said notification service sends said notification concerning said sender to said receiver if said predetermined test criterion is satisfied;
- and
- said predetermined test criterion includes comparison of said at least two values concerning said sender.
A data processing network with distributed applications including at least one sender, at least one receiver and a notification service with which said receiver or each receiver is registered in order to receive notifications satisfying a predetermined test criterion, wherein:
- said sender or each sender includes means for sending to said notification service a notification including a set of at least two values concerning said sender;
- said notification service includes means for verifying, for each registered receiver, if said set of values satisfies said predetermined test criterion associated with said receiver;
- said notification service includes means for sending said notification concerning said sender to said receiver if said predetermined test criterion is satisfied;
- and
- said predetermined test criterion includes comparison of at least two values concerning said sender.
A communication unit of a data processing network with distributed applications, which network includes at least one sender and at least one receiver, said communication unit including a notification service with which said receiver or each receiver is registered in order to receive notifications satisfying a predetermined test criterion, said sender or each sender including means for sending to said notification service a notification including a set of at least two values concerning said sender, said notification service including means for verifying, for each registered receiver, if said set of values satisfies said predetermined test criterion associated with said receiver and means for sending said notification concerning said sender to said receiver if said predetermined test criterion is satisfied, wherein said predetermined test criterion includes comparison of at least two values concerning said sender.
