ABSTRACT:
An information system that enables differing information processes of extended duration to share intermediate data prior to their completion without sacrificing data integrity controls. The information system includes a contract process that is a parent of the information processes. The contract process obtains a set of data updates from one of the child transactions of each of the processes prior to completion of the processes. The contract process generates a set of contract data based upon the data updates obtained from the processes and holds the contract data until successful completion of the processes.
