Abstract
System and method for managing and communicating state changes of a complex system. The system includes a plurality of configuration items, wherein each configuration item is a functional component of the system and has an associated state value that is one of a set of state values describing operational characteristics of the configuration item. A data structure that represents transitions between the state values is constructed in each of the configuration items. Each of the configuration items receives notification requests that include a first set of state values, a second set of state values, a requester identifier, and a message value. The requester identifier and message value of each notification request are associated with a transition of the configuration item for a transition from a state in the first set of state values to a state value in the second set of state values. In response to a transition of a configuration item between state values, a message value(s) and requester identifier(s) that are associated with the transition are selected, and the message value(s) is sent to the requester(s) referenced by the requester identifier(s).
