Selective view synchronization for composite services delivery

A composite service enabling data processing system comprising:

• a plurality of channel servlets executing in an application server in a data processing system for storing and executing program code including at least one processor coupled to memory elements through a system bus, the servlets enabled to establish multiple different communication channels of access to a single common session for a composite service, wherein the multiple different communication channels of access comprise at least one voice communication channel and one visual communication channel;
• a location registry comprising a table of entries associating the different ones of the communication channels of access to the single common session for the composite service;
• a model servlet executing in the application server and configured for coupling to a model for the single common session, for modifying state data in the model for the single common session, and to synchronize a particular view for each of the different communication channels of access to the composite service responsive to changes detected in the model;
• and,
• selective view synchronization logic coupled to the channel servlets, the selective view synchronization logic comprising program code enabled to selectively synchronize the particular views for each particular different communication channel of access to the common session based upon user preferences to determine characterization of content being provided to the particular view for one of the multiple communication channels of access requested for synchronization.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer usable medium having computer usable program code for selectively synchronizing content across different views of a composite service, the computer program product including:

• computer usable program code for establishing for a common session, multiple channels of access to a composite service, wherein the multiple channels of access comprise at least one voice channel and one visual channel;
• computer usable program code for providing content to a particular view for one of the multiple channels of access for synchronization across others of the channels of access to the common session;
• computer usable program code for consulting a set of user preferences to determine for each multiple channel of access to the common session whether the content provided to the particular view for one of the multiple channels of access is of a characteristic permitted for synchronization for each channel of access to the common session;
• and
• computer usable program code for synchronizing the content only to the channels of access to the common session that are permitted by the set of user preferences.
