Abstract
The present invention provides a method for optimizing the processing of backend transactions. The method operates by identifying a transaction group comprising related transactions for processing from a program executing on a computer and determining a degree of necessity for each of the related transactions, where the degree of necessity represents a predetermined time period given for each of the plurality of related transactions to successfully complete execution. The method includes determining which of the plurality of related transactions depend upon the successful completion of a transaction, assigning a priority for each of the related transactions, and scheduling the execution of the related transactions based upon priority. The method further includes canceling the execution of any of the related transactions that depend upon a transaction that does not successful complete execution, and returning to the program any data resulting from the execution of the related transactions.
