WEB SERVICE TRANSACTION MANAGEMENT

Frans A. Henskens

2007

Abstract

This paper describes extension of the functionality of conventional web browsers to produce a new enhanced web browser. Each instance of this enhanced browser is part of a federation of browser instances that use a directed graph-based technique to provide transaction and hence concurrency control over access to web services. These ‘super browsers’ communicate with web-based services across the Internet, application code that may be obtained from the Internet but then executes as a local program, and with other browser instances.
