Abstract
A communication system and method for supporting the communication of inter-dependent data messages includes determining if a later data message represents an inter-dependent message affiliated with an earlier data message. The communication system and method determines whether a condition associated with the earlier inter-dependent data message is fulfilled. If the condition is fulfilled, communication system executes a command associated with the fulfilled condition and the later inter-dependent data message.
Claims19
A method of managing communications of a data message, the method comprising the steps of:
- assigning a dependency characteristic to a corresponding message type for at least one earlier transmitted data message of a group;
- determining if a communication disruption has occurred for the at least one earlier transmitted data message in the group;
- and
- executing a handling command for the group if the disruption occurred, the handling command consistent with the dependency characteristic assigned to the at least one earlier transmitted data message;
- and
- transmitting a later data message of the group based on the handling command associated with the corresponding message type.
A system of managing communications of a data message, the system comprising the steps of:
- a message-dependency manager for assigning a dependency characteristic to a corresponding message type for the at least one earlier transmitted data message of a group;
- a disruption detector for determining if a communication disruption has occurred for the at least one earlier transmitted data message in the group;
- a transaction manager for executing a handling command for the group if the disruption occurred, the handling command consistent with the dependency characteristic assigned to the at least one earlier transmitted data message;
- and
- wherein the transaction manager is operable to transmit the later data message of the group based on the handling command associated with the corresponding message type in a message-dependency database.
A system of managing communications of a data message, the system comprising the steps of;
- a message-dependency manager for assigning a dependency characteristic to a corresponding message type for the at least one earlier transmitted data message of a group;
- a disruption detector for determining if a communication disruption has occurred for the at least one earlier transmitted data message in the group;
- a transaction manager for executing a handling command for the group if the disruption occurred, the handling command consistent with the dependency characteristic assigned to the at least one earlier transmitted data message;
- and
- wherein the transaction manager is operable to transmit a later data message of the group and to delete the at least one earlier data message in the group based on the handling command associated with a corresponding message type of a message-dependency database.

- and
- wherein the transaction manager is operable to transmit the at least one earlier data message prior to a later data message of the group in sequential order based on the handling command associated with a corresponding message type in message-dependency database.
A method for supporting the communication of inter-dependent data messages via a communications network, the method comprising the steps of:
- determining if at least two data messages are inter-dependent;
- organizing the at least two data messages into a group if they are determined to be interdependent;
- and
- deleting at least one earlier message in the group if a sequence of the data messages in the group does not support contextual understanding of a latest data message in the group.
A method for supporting the communication of inter-dependent data messages via a communications network, the method comprising the steps of:
- determining if at least two data messages are inter-dependent;
- organizing the at least two data messages into a group if they are determined to be inter-dependent;
- and
- sending the group of data messages to a destination communication system in a sequence from an earliest data message to a latest data message in the group wherein the sending step is executed if a sequence of the data messages provide a context for comprehension of the latest data message.
