Abstract:
1. A method for managing results in a locale independent manner in a multi-node networked data processing system, the method comprising: receiving, at a first node, a task to be performed sent from a client node connected with the first node, wherein the client node has a language of a first locale associated therewith and the task includes an identifier of the language of the first locale; responsive to receiving the task, parceling, by the first node, the task into a plurality of sub-tasks that each may be independently executed, wherein the plurality of sub-tasks include a first sub-task; conveying the first sub-task having the identifier of the first locale to a second node connected with the first node for processing of the first sub-task, wherein the second node has a language of a second locale associated therewith that is different than the language of the first locale; responsive to receiving by the first node a first message resulting from completion of the first sub-task, translating, by the first node, the first message into the language of the first locale; consolidating, by the first node, the first message translated into the language of the first locale and at least one message resulting from completion of a second sub-task processed by a third node into a results message; and sending the results message to the client node.
