More Information
Summary:An apparatus utilizes distributed coordinating members to distribute member-specific state data to subscribing members in a distributed computing system. Member-specific state data is associated with different subjects, and coordinating members are configured to manage state data associated with particular subjects such that a reporting member that needs to report member-specific state data associated with a particular subject forwards that state data to a coordinating member associated with that subject. Once received, the coordinating member then distributes the member-specific state data to any members that have subscribed to receive state data associated with that subject.
