Abstract
Handling events. A method may be practiced, for example, in a networked computer system including an event handling computer connected to one or more event generating computers. The method includes an act of generating an event at an event generating computer. The event is rendered into a rendered event in an application independent format by combining static context information with dynamic event information. The rendered event is transmitted to the event handling computer.

9. In a networked computer environment including an event handling computer connected to one or more event generating computers, a method of handling events, the method comprising the following acts:
-
subscribing to a publication/subscription service at an event generating computer, wherein subscribing to a publication/subscription service comprises;
specifying a format for events as either being rendered or raw events, wherein rendered events comprise data readable in an application independent format and raw events comprise data in a format readable by an application associated with the event; and
receiving an event from the event generating computer in the format specified in the act of subscribing to a publication/subscription service. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
