[jira] Commented: (UIMA-1245) Processing order of parent CAS different on UIMA and UIMA AS

Jerry Cwiklik commented on UIMA-1245:
-------------------------------------

It seems that the general agreement is that the CM should hold the input CAS until ALL of its children are processed. Only than, the input CAS would be returned to the client. This would be a default. To override this, the user would add a new attribute in the dd for the Cas Multiplier . Eddie votes for processParentEarly="true".  If this is provided , the parent CAS would be returned from the CM as soon as all children are generated. This would enable processing of input CAS and its children at the same time. The input CAS would still be held in the final state until all its children are processed. Assuming everyone agrees, I need Marshall to modify dd2spring to support the new CM parameter.

> Arron Kaplan raised the question of when parent CASes are processed relative to their children. See http://markmail.org/message/5cop7iv2nshouhgs  As of now, the processing order for a multi-threaded UIMA AS aggregate is different than that for a single-threaded UIMA aggregate.
> A discussion with Burn, Adam, Jerry, Marshall and myself concluded that the default processing order for UIMA AS should be changed to be the same as in UIMA, in order to have the same application behavior for both. This will be done by suspending flow of a parent CAS after it is returned from a CasMultiplier delegate until all its children CASes have finished processing.
> However, there also needs to be a UIMA AS deployment option for CasMultiplier delegates that allows the parent CAS to resume processing immediately after being returned from the CM. This option is needed to enable parallel processing.
