| 20080312984 | Method for Assessing Risk in a Business - Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for determining risk associated with a business. The risk determination calculates risk with one or more policy controls associated with one or more business objects in a business object tree. Risk calculated for the policy controls is rolled-up to a business object using an algorithm that does not dilute the risk associated with the policy controls. Likewise, the risk for a business object is rolled-up to the parents of the business object. Risk is finally rolled-up to a highest order business object, which represents the risk associated with the business. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20080208645 | Method for Logic Tree Traversal - Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for traversing a business object tree and an associated policy object tree. The traversal determines determine all ancestral business objects to any one business object of interest. The traversal also determines all policy objects associated with the ancestral objects or the business object of interest. The traversal algorithm may traverse the policy object tree to determine all policy controls linked to the associated policy objects. By traversing the business object tree and the policy object tree, the traversal algorithm provides a group of one or more policy controls associated with any one business item of interest. | 08-28-2008 |
