Abstract
A technique manages access to a limited number of computerized sessions. The technique involves receiving, from a waiting user, a session request for a computerized session, and queuing the session request in a wait queue in response to all of the limited number of computerized sessions being currently assigned to other users. The technique further involves, while the session request is queued in the wait queue, providing permission to the waiting user to un-assign a computerized session which is currently assigned to another user. With such a technique, the user has the option of simply waiting until a computerized session has been relinquished (i.e., if the user is willing to be patient) or un-assigning a computerized session currently assigned to another user (e.g., in order to speed up access to a computerized session).
