In a distributed system comprising a document server and a plurality of clients which are connected to the document server via a network, each of the plurality of clients transmits, to the document server, an original transaction with information indicative of at least one client which uses a document. The document server receives the original transaction, processes the original transaction as a global document generation transaction to produce a document object, transmits, to the at least one client, the global transaction as a local transaction. The at least one client receives the local transaction and means for performing the local transaction to produce a virtual document object corresponding to the document object.

Document sharing management method for a distributed system

A method is presented of matching distributed transactions from a plurality of clients working cooperatively in a network-based information system, so that semantics conflicts submitted by user applications are resolved for each network application in the network server. Transactions manager,in the network server,executes parallel processing of transactions submitted by clients,. Semantics conflict detection section,in an network application,in the network server,inspects for conflicts. When an accessing conflict arises among a number of clients,, the semantics conflict detection section,forwards a processing routine having a resolving method consistent with the contents of the semantics conflict to the transactions manager,, which executes the processing routine to resolve the semantics conflict in transactions.

A procedure calling method is provided, in which an appropriate procedure car be mutually called safely between separately-prepared application programs. The method uses a procedure assignment table having paired information about procedure name and procedure address. First, whether the address of a procedure corresponding to a called procedure name is included in a first procedure assignment table or not is judged. When the address of the procedure corresponding to the given name is included in the first procedure assignment table, the address of the procedure is acquired to be executed. When the address of the procedure corresponding to the given name is not included in the first procedure assignment table, whether a retrieval function for retrieving a second procedure assignment table is provided or not is then judged. When the retrieval function is not provided, an error is outputted. When the retrieval function is provided, the retrieval function is then executed to obtain the second procedure assignment table. An additional retrieval function or functions may be further provided, in which an address assignment table including paired information about the name and address of each retrieval function is preferably provided.
