ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for queuing requests for access to a software through a communication network having a limited amount of licenses to the software. In one embodiment, the invention includes a server having the software receiving requests for access to the software from a plurality of remote users and allowing access to the software on the server to some of the plurality of remote users such that the number of remote users allowed access does not exceed the set number of available licenses. The remainder of the plurality of remote users can be placed in a queue. The method can further include sending alerts to remote users as licenses become available, and allowing access to the software on the server to the queued remote users.
