Method and apparatus for using process exceptions to provide instant notifications for distributed processes

摘要: The present invention is drawn to a method and apparatus for using process exceptions provide instant notifications distributed processes. Process exception detection means are set-up at critical points in process. can be implemented separate hardware, such as PDA, or software code added existing systems, machine controllers. monitors stimulus from information sources detect that then communicated messaging controllers the instantly send notification contextual needed respond an appropriate recipient. Escalating communication schemes used both further fault tolerance.
