Abstract

A method and system for ensuring a preferred sequence for accessing a plurality of objects. The system includes a doubly linked list which contains a reference to each agent of a child object which is to be accessed before the object of the agent having the doubly linked list can be accessed. Each agent also includes a singly linked list which refers to each agent of a parent object. The singly linked list is used to clean up structures indicating dependencies after the dependencies no longer exist, and to inform a waiting agent that a child object has been accessed.
