Abstract
A method and system for operating a server with a plurality of clients is provided. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the server is designed to provide a service to an activated client. The service provided is comprised of both common steps and a behavior group. The behavior group includes alternative behaviors, each of which corresponds to a series of steps that are only a portion of the steps designed to be executed when the service is requested by a single group of clients. The common steps are steps designed to be executed for all of the clients. An indicium is associated with the activated client. The indicium indicates which of the alternative behaviors is to be provided to the activated client. When the activated client requests the service from the server, the indicium associated with the activated client is checked. The series of steps corresponding to the alternative behavior indicated by the checked indicium are then executed. The common steps are also executed.
