From Prompt-Response to Pulse-Driven Intentions: The Intention Pulse Transfer Protocol (IPTP) For Release and Absorption of Pulses

Building upon our previous work on Prompt-Response (PnR) Computing, this paper introduces a refined computational model that separates logical state from data payload through the concepts of Pulse and Response. We present the Intention Pulse Transfer Protocol (IPTP), an asynchronous communication protocol that enables distributed coordination of semantic states across cloud-native environments. This evolution addresses the conceptual coupling limitations of the original PnR model while maintaining its core benefits of semantic traceability and business logic alignment. The paper demonstrates how Pulses serve as declarative truth conditions, Responses carry structured payloads, and Intentions act as field-gated activation mechanisms. A practical NodeJS implementation illustrates the protocol’s application in user authentication scenarios, showing how IPTP can coexist with existing client-server architectures while providing enhanced semantic coordination capabilities.
