Abstract
Transport agnostic pull mode messaging service enables clients of diverse types to send and receive messages to one another while guaranteeing delivery of messages. Client specific adapters connect to a server and pull messages waiting for them in a queue. Clients may specify themselves as the recipients of the pulled messages, or specify another client as a recipient. This allows users of diverse types of clients to communicate and provides users with greater flexibility regarding how, when, and where they view their messages.
