Method for maintaining revisions for multiple documents using dependency graph
A patent application (Publication Number: US20240028823A1) describes a method for maintaining revisions for multiple documents using computing devices. The method involves storing pending revision requests in a shared workspace queue, generating a pending request graph based on a dependency graph representing content interdependencies, and executing revisions in a specific order determined by the graph. The ordering is different from the queue's order, ensuring efficient processing of revisions.
Furthermore, the method includes identifying ready requests based on incomplete parent nodes in the graph, processing revisions for these requests, and potentially handling multiple revisions simultaneously. The computing device also updates the dependency graph based on processed requests, ensuring accurate tracking of document revisions. Additionally, the method involves flagging pending requests as processed only after the corresponding revisions have been completed, maintaining a durable log of revision requests for effective document management. Overall, the method streamlines the revision process for multiple documents, improving efficiency and accuracy in managing document revisions.
