| 20090024979 | Method and system for configuring a user interface - A method and system are provided for configuring a user interface to a user role. A user model defines one or more user roles and one or more tasks, each user role being linked to: one or more user tasks via one or more user goals, and a set of skills a user performing the role must have, wherein each task is also linked to one or more skills. A software product defines one or more software functions, and means are provided for linking each user task to a sequence of software function calls. The system includes an organization modeling tool including means for customizing the user model dynamically to alter the user role to task mapping to meet the current needs of an organization including validating the goals and sets of skills of the user model. The system also includes a display structure model including means for configuring a user interface to a user role, the display structure model being a runtime component for dynamically building control menus for groups of tasks depending on the user role of the logged on user. | 01-22-2009 |
| 20090125905 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR MODIFYING A MESSAGE - There is disclosed a method, apparatus and computer program for modifying a message. A message is received from a first entity. The message contains a first level of detail appropriate to the first entity and the message is for communication to a second entity. It is determined whether the message contains a scope sensitive field. Once it has been determined that the message does contain a scope sensitive field, information is accessed indicating how to transform the scope sensitive field to a second level of detail appropriate to the second entity. The scope sensitive field is then transformed to produce the second level of detail. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090319923 | METHOD FOR GENERATING ROLE-BASED USER INTERFACES UTILIZING UML MODELS - This disclosure proposes a set of rules for modeling that enable the generation of complete UI implementations at varying levels of abstraction. It also describes an engine that can interpret these rules and generate said UI. It differs from the prior art as it is not dependent on the raw data structure from the database but rather allows the concepts and objects a user interacts with to be modeled and mapped. It provides an additional level of sophistication allowing role-based customization and layout styles. | 12-24-2009 |

| 20080229336 | Method, Apparatus and Software for Measuring the Performance of a Runtime Platform in Response to a Process Call from a Software Application - A method, apparatus or software is disclosed for monitoring the performance that an application program receives from a runtime platform. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20080270212 | METHOD, APPARATUS OR SOFTWARE FOR MANAGING A DATA PROCESSING PROCESS - A method, apparatus and software is disclosed for managing a data processing process in the form of a workflow, where activities in the workflow can use services or sub-processes to complete their task. A policy is associated with such activities to indicate how the data processing process should manage the situation where an activity's performance is not acceptable. This includes a policy for replacing or substituting the service or sub-process. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20080281970 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR INTEGRATING HETEROGENEOUS SYSTEMS - Disclosed are a method, computer program product and apparatus for integrating resource and coordinator components in a heterogeneous computer system. The technique disclosed involves the introduction of a negotiation phase into the resource enlistment or registration process wherein the resource component and coordinator component request and respond with indicators showing the quality of service that each supports, thus jointly establishing at runtime a quality of service to be supported for the resource and coordinator pairing. The qualities of service may include commit phase support and recovery support. | 11-13-2008 |
