1. A processing method for data combined to form a plurality of data records, using a plurality of applications, comprising:
- executing the applications quasi-simultaneously via a single computer;
processing data, assigned to a first data record, via the applications at one time; and
determining a changeover from the first data record to a second data record has occurred when data of the second data record is loaded into one of the applications, wherein the changeover is determined by a central management component and indicates a second data record is loaded into one of the applications;
storing a list of the applications; and
causing the other applications to terminate the processing of the data of the first data record in response to the determined changeover, andwherein at least descriptions of the functionalities executed by the applications are also stored in the list,wherein, when there is the changeover from the first data record to the second data record, an activation command is transferred to selected applications of the applications, on the basis of which activation command the data of the second data record is to be processed and the nonselected applications do not begin to process data of the second data record.

Abstract
A computer executes quasi-simultaneously a plurality of applications which process data combined to form data records. Only data of a single data record is processed at one time. If an application loads data of another data record, this is transferred to a central management component which forms a list of the applications in which descriptions of the functionalities which are executed by the applications are also stored. The management component causes the other applications to terminate the processing of the data of the first data record.

21. A computer program product including executable instructions, which when executed by a computer cause the computer to perform a method comprising:
-
executing the applications quasi-simultaneously via a single computer; processing data, assigned to a first data record, via the applications at one time; and determining a changeover from the first data record to a second data record has occurred when data of the second data record is loaded into one of the applications, wherein the changeover is determined by a central management component and indicates a second data record is loaded into one of the applications; storing a list of the applications; and causing the other applications to terminate the processing of the data of the first data record in response to the determined changeover, and wherein at least descriptions of the functionalities executed by the applications are also stored in the list, wherein, when there is the changeover from the first data record to the second data record, an activation command is transferred to selected applications of the applications, on the basis of which activation command the data of the second data record is to be processed and the nonselected applications do not begin to process data of the second data record.

22. A computer program product storing executable instructions, which when executed by a computer executing a plurality of applications, cause the computer to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving an indication that an application previously processing a first data record has loaded a second data record for processing; determining a changeover has occurred in response to the loading of the second data record by the application, the changeover indicating the second data record is loaded into the application; forming, at a central management component, a list of the applications processing the first data record; and causing the applications included in the list to terminate the processing of data of the first data record in response to the determined changeover wherein, when there is the changeover, an activation command is transferred to applications in the list of applications and other applications of the plurality of applications do not begin to process data of the second data record. - View Dependent Claims (23)

24. A computer comprising:
-
a central management component configured to determine a changeover from a first data record to a second data record has occurred when data of the second data record is loaded in one of a plurality of applications previously processing data of the first data record, and to cause other applications of the plurality of applications to terminate processing of data of the first data record, wherein the changeover indicates the second data record is loaded in one of the plurality of applications, and when there is the changeover from the first data record to the second data record, an activation command is transferred to selected applications of the plurality of applications based on data of the second data record to be processed, and the nonselected applications do not begin to process data of the second data record. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27)
