Publication network control system using domain and client side communications resource locator lists for managing information communications between the domain server and publication servers
First Claim
1. A publication control system for networks inside the same client entity comprising:
- 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;
a client side communications server program stored in each publication computer, which, when loaded by the web server program responding to the appropriate resource locator therefor, is executed by each publication computer, and is further responsive to resource locators directed to the client side communications server program and which directs the database management program in organizing the dynamic group registry;
a domain computer having electronic storage media coupled thereto 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;
a domain communications server program which, when loaded by the web server program responding to the appropriate resource locator therefore, is executed by the domain computer, and is further responsive to resource locators directed to the domain communications server program and directs the database management program in organizing the dynamic client registry;
a domain communications resource locator list stored in the domain computer and each publication computer that causes predetermined functions to be selected for execution in the domain communications server in the domain computer;
a client side communications resource locator list stored in the domain computer and each publication computer that causes 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.

Abstract
A publication control system for networks inside a client having several publication computers networked together, each of the publication computers having disks for storing a dynamic group registry and resource locators containing function names, a web server which, when executed by the publication computer, causes the publication computer to respond to resource locators by calling the function indicated, a database management program for organizing the dynamic group registry; and a client side communications server, which responds to resource locators directed to it and directs the database management program in organizing the dynamic group registry; the system also has a domain computer having a disk for storing a dynamic client registry and resource locators containing function names; a web server which, when executed by the domain computer, causes the domain computer to respond to the resource locators by calling the function name indicated, a database management program for organizing the dynamic client registry; a domain communications server which, when loaded by the web server, is executed by the domain computer, to respond to resource locators directed to it and to direct the database management program in organizing the dynamic client registry; a domain communications resource locator list in all computers that causes functions to be executed in the domain communications server; a client side communications resource locator list in all computers that causes functions to be executed in each client side communications server so that communications between the domain computer and the publication computers cause the selected functions to control internal publications.
