Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
245 words
A method of providing a distributed application services integration system comprising: providing a central domain server, wherein a configuration file resides on the central domain server, and the configuration file contains a list of cookie fields that may be read, or written to, and identifies whether a particular application has read access or write access, to a field of a cookie file; providing a first application which transmits first application user event data to a first application interface library; wherein the first application interface library determines whether the first application user event data is a first type of event data which requires a change to a field in a cookie file to provide real time communication to other applications of the system, and the first application interface library determines whether the user event data is a second type of user event data which does not require real time communication to other applications of the system; using a cookie access library to update a change in a field in the cookie file where the first application user event data is determined to be a first type of user event data; where a first application user event data is determined to be a second type of user event data transmitting the user event data as a queue message through a queue of a message queuing middleware; and controlling the first applications access to cookie fields of the cookie file based on the list in the configuration file.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
245 words
A method of providing a distributed application services integration system comprising: providing a central domain server, wherein a configuration file resides on the central domain server, and the configuration file contains a list of cookie fields that may be read, or written to, and identifies whether a particular application has read access or write access, to a field of a cookie file; providing a first application which transmits first application user event data to a first application interface library; wherein the first application interface library determines whether the first application user event data is a first type of event data which requires a change to a field in a cookie file to provide real time communication to other applications of the system, and the first application interface library determines whether the user event data is a second type of user event data which does not require real time communication to other applications of the system; using a cookie access library to update a change in a field in the cookie file where the first application user event data is determined to be a first type of user event data; where a first application user event data is determined to be a second type of user event data transmitting the user event data as a queue message through a queue of a message queuing middleware; and controlling the first applications access to cookie fields of the cookie file based on the list in the configuration file.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
193 words
The method of claim 1 further including: providing a second application which transmits a second application user event data to a second application interface library; wherein the second application interface library determines whether the second application user event data is a first type of event data which requires a change to a field in the cookie file to provide real time communication to other applications of the system, and the second application interface library determines whether the second application user event data is a second type of user event data which does not require real time communication to other applications of the system; using a cookie access library to update a change a field in the cookie file where the second application user event data is determined to be the first type of user event data; where a second application user event data is determined to be the second type of user event data transmitting the second application user event data as a message through the queue of the message queuing middleware; and controlling the second applications access to cookie fields of the cookie file based on the list in the configuration file.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
50 words
The method of claim 1 further including: encrypting first application user event data where the first application user event data is determined to be the second type of event data, prior to transmitting the first application user event data as a message through the queue of the message queuing middleware.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
The method of claim 1 further including: pushing information from the configuration file through the message delivering middleware to the first application interface library.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
28 words
The method of claim 4 , wherein the information from the configuration file controls the operation of the first application interface library when a user event takes place.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
30 words
The method of claim 2 further including: pushing information from the configuration file through the message delivering middleware to the first application interface library and the second application interface library.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method of claim 6 , wherein the information pushed from the configuration file controls the operation of the first application interface library when a user event takes place, and controls the operation of the second application interface library.
