Zusammenfassung:The processing of management messages controlling resources and links in a resource repository may occur without regard to chronological order of the message creation. Resources and links include at least one timestamp, and a delete pending indicator. Messages to add, modify, and delete resources and links include a message timestamp. The management messages are conditionally processed based on a comparison between the message timestamp and the resource/link timestamp(s) and delete pending indicator. In an exemplary embodiment, AddResource, ModifyResource, DeleteResource, AddLink and DeleteLink messages are defined and their conditional processing described.
