Abstract
A multi-processing software system (200) has multiple operating processes (221, 222, 223, 224, 225, 226, 227, 228) that communicate with each other using messages. Each process has a corresponding process class (410, 411, 412, 413). Each message is assigned a message type (450, 451, 452, 453), and messages types are mapped (400) to least one process class. A particular message is routed to processes having a process class corresponding to the one or more process classes mapped to the message type of the particular message.
