Abstract
User interfaces for Multiple external processes are hosted in a single user interface (UI) threaded host application. A broker process (or broker window) is created in the hosting application for each external process user interface window. A monitor monitors the state of the hosting application and, if it becomes nonresponsive, identifies each of the external processes that are nonresponsive, and issues a notification to terminate the identified external processes.
