Mid-tier-based conflict resolution method and system usable for message synchronization and replication
First Claim
1. A computer-based method for providing a conflict detection and resolution in a mid-tier server of a multi-tier client-server communication system performing message synchronization in a client/mid-tier environment and performing replication in a mid-tier/server environment, comprising the steps of:
- (a) defining a client/mid-tier conflict resolution look-up table listing all possible conflict states in the client/mid-tier environment and corresponding action rules;
(b) defining a mid-tier/server conflict resolution look-up table listing all possible conflict states in the mid-tier/server environment and corresponding action rules; and
(c) for any detected conflict state, finding and executing the corresponding action rule.

Abstract
A system, method and a computer usable medium tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the computer to perform a computer-based method for providing a conflict detection and resolution in a mid-tier server of a multi-tier client-server communication system which performs message synchronization in a client/mid-tier environment and replication in a mid-tier/server environment. The method defines a client/mid-tier conflict resolution look-up table listing all possible conflict states in the client/mid-tier environment and corresponding action rules, and a mid-tier/server conflict resolution look-up table listing all possible conflict states in the mid-tier/server environment and corresponding action rules. For any detected conflict state the method finds and executes the corresponding action rule.
