| 20080250434 | CICS BMS (BASIC MESSAGE SERVICE) METAMODEL - A system for processing a transaction on an end user application and an application server. The system initiates the transaction on the end user application in a first language (such as a markup language) with a first application program (such as a Web browser). The system transmits the transaction to the server and converts the transaction from the first language of the first end user application to a language running on the application server. The system processes the transaction on the application server, transmits the transaction from the application server back to the end user application, and converts the transaction from the language running on the application server to the language of the end user application. | 10-09-2008 |
| 20080263641 | APPARATUS FOR FACILITATING TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN THIN-CLIENTS AND MESSAGE FORMAT SERVICE (MFS)-BASED INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (IMS) APPLICATIONS - An apparatus is disclosed for facilitating conversational and non-conversational transactions between thin-clients and MFS-based IMS applications. The apparatus stores conversation attributes associated with a conversational transaction between a thin-client and an MFS-based IMS application, the conversation attributes comprising connection information and conversation-specific information. Next, one or more transaction messages from the thin-client are preprocessed based on a transaction message type. The stored conversation attributes are updated in response changes in the conversation attributes caused by the one or more transaction messages. Then, a conversation output message is formatted for the thin-client. The apparatus may include a security module that authenticates user, a connection module that establishes a connection with an MFS-based IMS application, a state module that preserves and maintains conversation attributes, and a control module to process a transaction message having one or more transaction message types. | 10-23-2008 |

The method may include a security module authenticating a user, a connection module establishing a connection with an MFS-based IMS application, a state module preserving and maintaining conversation attributes, and a control module processing a transaction message having one or more transaction message types. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20090119415 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REPRESENTING MFS CONTROL BLOCKS IN XML FOR MFS-BASED IMS APPLICATIONS - A system and method for representing MFS control blocks in XML for MFS-based IMS applications utilizes an MFS XML adapter and an MFS XML repository to translate between XML and MFS. The repository contains XML files for DOF/MOD and XML files for DIF/MID. When an XML request is received, the XML request is transformed to a byte stream by retrieving the relevant information from the MFS XML repository. The byte stream can then be placed in an IMS message queue to await processing by an MFS-based IMS application program. A byte stream response is generated by the MFS-based IMS application and is transformed into an XML response, again, by retrieving the relevant information from the MFS XML repository. | 05-07-2009 |
