Dynamic communication between computer processes

摘要

A method of communication in a distributed computing environment includes storing information in a first memory segment on a first computer system in the distributed computing environment. A second memory segment of a second computer system is repeatedly updated. The second memory segment is repeatedly updated with information corresponding to the most recently read information stored in the first memory segment. The information stored in the second memory segment is repeatedly read by each of a plurality of work session computer processes. The information stored in the first memory segment is changed. A function is performed by each of the plurality of work session computer processes. The function performed by each of the plurality of work session computer processes is determined by a change of the information read from the second memory segment.
