Abstract
Various implementations are disclosed for routing messages according to a routing order, where sequences (e.g., sub-sections or subsets) of the routing order are progressively and/or iteratively resolved during a run-time of the message routing operation(s). The resolution of a sequence may involve determining identity information of recipients that were previously only described within the sequence in relation to one another, in relation to the group, or in relation to a type of routing order. Further, the resolution(s) of the sequences may depend at least in part on responses received from recipients of the message during execution of earlier (resolved) sequences of the message routing operations. In this way, message routing may occur dynamically, so that, for example, new recipients may be added, or a (new) message order may otherwise be realized or implemented, during the run-time of the routing operation.
