Patent

CA 2501466

In accordance with various aspects, the present invention relates to accessing and publishing documents between two computer systems or nodes that are connected together in a network environment. The system and method for name resolution stores an identity information document containing a user-friendly handle signifying identity, such as an email address, and a machine location, such as an IP address, for the publishing computer system where the documents are stored. Next, the system and method intercepts an initial request for access to documents when the initial request includes a user-friendly handle and replaces the user-friendly handle with the machine location, so that network users may easily access these documents through knowledge only of the user-friendly handle.

Selon divers aspects, l'invention concerne l'accès à des documents et la publication de documents entre deux systèmes informatiques ou noeuds reliés entre eux dans un environnement de réseau. Le système et le procédé de résolution de nom de l'invention permettent de stocker un document d'informations d'identité contenant un descripteur convivial signifiant une identité, par exemple une adresse de courrier électronique, et un emplacement machine, par exemple une adresse IP, correspondant au système informatique de publication dans lequel les documents sont stockés. Ensuite, le système et le procédé précités interceptent une demande initiale d'accès aux documents lorsque la demande initiale comprend un descripteur convivial et remplacent le descripteur convivial par l'emplacement machine, de manière que les utilisateurs du réseau peuvent facilement accéder à des documents en ne connaissant que le descripteur convivial.
