    Abstract: A method and system of handling events based on a system workload comprises defining a time constraint attribute in an event rule, the event rule being applied to one or more events, determining if a system is under a predefined level of stress and if it is when processing a received event (301) using the time constraint in the event rule to determine when an event should be carried out. The system may use a flag to indicate a stress condition (302). The time constraint may be set to immediate (303) or to a time period. The event rule may calculate a maximum time delay (305) and store the event with a timer task (306). When the stress flag is removed (307) stored events may be processed in order of their timed delay (309). Event rules may be established through a business user interface.

    Abstract: A data processing system comprises a service bus connected between a client and a server, the service bus comprising one or more applications arranged to mediate message flow between the client and the server. A method of operating the data processing system comprises the steps of receiving a message from the client at the service bus, and mediating the message at an application of the service bus, the mediation comprising adding a header to the message, the header defining a source and a condition under which a target can respond directly to the source, the source comprising either the client or an application of the service bus and the target comprising either an application of the service bus or the server. The method can optionally further comprise receiving the mediated message at the target, detecting that the condition within the header of the mediated message is satisfied, and transmitting a response directly to the source as defined in the header of the mediated message.
