Official abstract text for this publication.
When a software component is starting ( 305 ), such as but not limited to a task or a subtask, the component pushes ( 310 ) its identification (ID) onto a stack. The component then executes ( 315 ) its other instructions. If the component completes its instructions so that it can terminate normally ( 320 ), then it pops ( 325 ) the stack, which removes its ID from the stack. If the component fails, such as by not being able to complete its instructions, then it will not be able to pop the stack so its ID will remain in the stack. Another software process can then read the IDs in the stack to identify ( 330 ) which components have failed and can automatically take a specified action ( 335 ), such as by sending an email message to, sending a text message to, or calling by telephone, a person or persons responsible for that software component.
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method of operation of a computer, the method comprising: starting a task; pushing information regarding the task onto a stack; at least partially executing the task; if the task terminates normally, popping from the stack the information regarding the task; if the task does not terminate normally, then obtaining the information from the stack to identify the task, and performing a predetermined action related to the task, the predetermined a…
