Abstract

Systems and methods are included for accessing resource objects in a multi-threaded environment. A request is received from a requester to perform an operation with respect to a resource object, where the requested resource object has multiple associations with other objects. A determination as to whether an authorization cache entry corresponding to the requested resource object contains sufficient permission data for granting or denying the request for access to the requested resource object is made. A grant or deny of access to the requested resource object is returned when the authorization cache entry corresponding to the requested resource object contains sufficient permission data.

First claim

It is claimed:

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
monitoring changes to an inheritance parent network in a multi-threaded computing environment, wherein the inheritance parent network includes multiple parent objects having direct parent associations with child objects, and wherein monitoring is performed on a computing device and includes:
detecting an inheritance parent object being newly added in the computing environment;
referencing an inheritance parent change q…
