REAL-TIME DISTRIBUTED USER INTERFACE UPDATES

Abstract:

A distributed interface is provided with real-time updates. A first user accessing the interface through a first user window is dynamically updated within the first user window and in real time when a second user accessing the interface through a second user window changes a field/character within the second user window. In an embodiment, the updated notification is achieved without window refreshing and without a committed update for the field/character change being committed by the second user to a back end system associated with the distributed interface.
