20090158178 | GRAPHICALLY NAVIGATING TREE STRUCTURES - Illustrative embodiments provide a computer implemented method, an apparatus and a computer program product for graphically navigating tree structures. In one illustrative embodiment, the computer implemented method comprises creating an outliner view of a tree view comprising the entire tree structure and determining whether an object has been selected from the tree view to create a selected object. The computer implemented method further, responsive to a determination that the object was selected, displays the entire tree view and further displays the selected object only, in a legible form, in the outliner view. | 06-18-2009 |
20090164593 | DERIVING OVERLAY INFORMATION FROM A USER INPUT FOR A BASE MESSAGE SCHEMA ASSOCIATED WITH A NODE IN A MESSAGE FLOW - There is disclosed a method, apparatus and computer program for deriving overlay information from a user input for a base message schema associated with a node in a message flow. The base message schema is presented to the user and has at least one variable portion. A user selection of a variable portion of the base schema is received. The user is then provided with possible overlay schema information for the selected variable portion. A user selection of the schema to be overlaid on the selected variable portion is received. The selected overlay schema is associated with the base schema. | 06-25-2009 |
20090187539 | SOLUTION PROVIDING NAVIGATION-INDEPENDENT ACCESS TO ELEMENTS OF A SOFTWARE INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT (IDE) USING UNIFORM RESOURCE LOCATORS (URLS) - The present invention discloses a navigation-independent system for accessing the elements of a software integrated development environment (IDE) using uniform resource locators (URLs). Such a system can include a set of URL-accessible IDE elements, a set of URLs, and a URL operation tool. The set of URL-accessible IDE elements can represent a multitude of functional objects accessible by the software IDE. Each URL-retrievable IDE element can include a set of meta data that contains key words describing the URL-accessible IDE element. Each URL in the set of URLs can be configured to provide a navigation-independent mechanism for accessing a corresponding URL-accessible IDE element. The URL operation tool can be configured to associate URLs with URL-accessible IDE elements and execute URL operations on the URL-accessible IDE elements. | 07-23-2009 |
20100114619 | CUSTOMIZED TRANSFORMATION OF FREE-FORM BUSINESS CONCEPTS TO SEMANTICALLY RICH BUSINESS MODELS - A computer-implemented method for transforming a free-form process diagram into a semantically rich business model based on heuristics. The method includes generating and storing predefined mappings between informal elements to be used in a free-form process diagram and formal elements associated with a semantically rich business model, in a storage medium, receiving a free-form process diagram to be transformed, automatically detecting and mapping the informal elements of the free-form process diagram to the stored predefined-mappings, automatically detecting and mapping connectors positioned between the informal elements of the free-form process diagram, and obtaining user input from a user for generating user-defined mappings for mapping unrecognizable informal elements of the free-form process diagram to formal elements and transforming the unrecognized informal elements into formal elements based on the user-defined mappings. | 05-06-2010 |
20100325567 | Apparatus and Method For Graphically Visualizing and Configuring Patterns - A method for graphically visualizing and configuring patterns includes displaying a high-level diagram representing a pattern. The high-level diagram may include graphical elements. These graphical elements may include concept elements representing concepts within the pattern, and relationship elements showing the relationships between the concept elements. The method may further provide functionality to enable a user to select the concept elements. Upon selecting a concept element, the method may display one or more GUI input elements to enable the user to input configuration data associated with the concept element. The method may then generate one or more artifacts associated with the concept elements. These artifacts may be configured with the configuration data previously input. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also disclosed and claimed herein. | 12-23-2010 |
20110066566 | CONCEPTUAL REPRESENTATION OF BUSINESS PROCESSES FOR CROSS-DOMAIN MAPPING - A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product for cross-domain mapping between a business process modeler domain and an implementation domain are provided. The method includes accessing a business concept registry on a data storage device including business concepts with mapping for the business process modeler domain and the implementation domain. The method also includes creating a model with one or more of the business concepts interconnected to represent a business process in the business process modeler domain, and exporting the model from the business process modeler domain to the implementation domain according to the business concept mapping of the business concept registry. | 03-17-2011 |

20090171935 | METHOD FOR SOLVING APPLICATION FAILURES USING SOCIAL COLLABORATION - A computer-implemented method, system and computer usable program code for solving an application failure using social collaboration are provided. A search request to search a central repository of knowledge is received. The search request comprises a user identity and an application failure problem to be solved. The central repository of knowledge comprises data regarding attempts to solve an application failure problem compiled from registered users of the central repository of knowledge. A determination is made as to whether the application failure problem to be solved exists in the central repository. If the application failure problem to be solved exists within the central repository, search results for previous attempts at solving the application failure problem are collected. The search results are ranked based on a frequency of access and feedback from users and are grouped according to social groupings defined by the requester. The results are displayed to a requester. | 07-02-2009 |
20100036847 | EXTENDABLE AND PLUGGABLE METHOD FOR VALIDATING XML DATA - A method of validating XML data comprises (a) registering a plurality of validators that are each responsible for validating a certain XML set of rules, (b) creating common XML data structures to be shared between the validators, (c) invoking registered validators and granting access to common XML data structures, and (d) reporting validation results for each of the validators. Two or more validators having similar pattern validation structures may share the common XML data structure of a data builder. Furthermore, the validators may be invoked in the order in which they are registered in step (a) and granted access to the common XML data structures that are built in step (b). In addition, the step of reporting the validation results may include formatting the validation results as error messages generated by each validator and outputting the error messages via an outputter. | 02-11-2010 |
