Abstract:
A method for creating distributed objects to notify receipt of another distributed object over a client domain server network infrastructure having at least one client entity, comprising the steps of:establishing a plurality of publication computers in communications relationship with each other inside the client entity, each of said publication computers having electronic storage media for storing a dynamic group registry thereon and for storing resource locators containing function names thereon, each publication computer further comprising a web server program which, when executed by the publication computer, causes the publication computer to respond to resource locators by calling the function name indicated therein into the publication computer, each publication computer further comprising a database management program for organizing the dynamic group registry; loading a client side communications server program in each publication computer in response to the appropriate resource locator therefor for responding to resource locators directed to the client side communications server program and for directing the database management program in organizing the dynamic group registry; designating a domain computer having electronic storage media for storing a dynamic client registry thereon and for storing resource locators containing function names thereon, the domain computer further comprising a web server program which, when executed by the domain computer, causes the domain computer to respond to the resource locators by calling the function name indicated therein into the domain computer the domain computer further comprising a database management program for organizing the dynamic client registry; loading a domain communications server program in response to the appropriate resource locator therefore for execution by the domain computer for responding to resource locators directed to the domain communications server program and directing the database management program in organizing the dynamic client registry; storing a domain communications resource locator list in the domain computer and each publication computer for causing predetermined functions to be selected for execution in the domain communications server in the domain computer; storing a client side communications resource locator list in the domain computer and each publication computer for causing predetermined functions to be selected for execution in the client side communications server in each publication computer so that communications between the domain computer and each publication computer cause the selected predetermined functions to be executed dynamically in order to manage information communications between the domain computer and each publication computer; creating a primary distributed object for transmission by a client side communications server; creating a receipt request distributed object associated with the primary distributed object, the receipt request distributed object being transmitted by the client side communications server; transmitting a receipt when the primary distributed object has been received at a client side communications server.
