TP Simone
Sédillot |
The ACTRanS Project (part of the European ACTS programme) is researching the use of TP to allocate resources on broadband networks. The INRIA is developing links between Object Oriented technology and systems that use the Open Group DTP model. A demonstrator has been built that combines CORBA OTS with TxRPC | ||
| 11:30 | Message Queuing and TP Ely Eshel Message Oriented |
It is often difficult for conventional TP systems to accommodate business processes that require long running or "asynchronous" transactions. One solution is to use message queuing systems to temporarily store messages and maintain their ordering. A separate benefit is that the same system can be used to apply protocol conversion. | ||
| 12:00 | Future Direction for the TP Group All |
We shall be proposing some ideas for specifications, test and brands. The Group will be invited to assist in the planning process. | ||
