20100325173 | RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF INFORMATICS SYSTEMS FOR COLLABORATIVE DATA MANAGEMENT - Rapid development of a collaborative database uses a spreadsheet application to implement the database. Each parameter of the database variables is entered into a corresponding cell in the spreadsheet. A first spreadsheet code is entered that refers to selected cells related to a first variable and resolves into database code that instructs a database application to create the first variable in the collaborative database. A second spreadsheet code is also entered also referring to selected cells related to the first variable and resolves into application server (AS) code that instructs an application server to generate a graphical data entry form for that variable. In order to develop the same database and AS code for the remaining variables, the developer uses the autofill function of the spreadsheet to autofill the spreadsheet codes to cells related to the other variables and resolving into their own database and AS codes. | 12-23-2010 |
