Publication number: 20060053368Abstract: Providing a framework for developing, deploying and managing sophisticated mobile solutions, with a simple Web-like programming model that integrates with existing enterprise components. Mobile applications may consist of a data model definition, user interface templates, a client side controller, which includes scripts that define actions, and, on the server side, a collection of conduits, which describe how to mediate between the data model and the enterprise. In one embodiment, the occasionally-connected application server assumes that data used by mobile applications is persistently stored and managed by external systems. The occasionally-connected data model can be a metadata description of the mobile application's anticipated usage of this data, and be optimized to enable the efficient traversal and synchronization of this data between occasionally connected devices and external systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 4, 2005Publication date: March 9, 2006Applicant: BEA Systems, Inc.Inventors: Adam Bosworth, Richard Burdon, Alexander Khesin, Alexander Lloyd, Farokh Eskafi, Ken Ong, Terry Lucas, Alexander Bosworth

Publication number: 20050278710Abstract: A system is provided for manipulating data representation language based-objects in a native programming language environment. In one embodiment, the system is used to map data objects of the data representation language to corresponding objects within the native programming language and vice versa. In one embodiment, the system is equipped to receive a mapping definition mapping selected elements of a data representation language, such as an XML data structure, to selected objects of a programming language, such as ECMAScript. The system is further equipped to determine whether the mapping definition comprises one or more definitional statements expressed with data representation language oriented language elements of a programming language.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 31, 2005Publication date: December 15, 2005Inventors: Terry Lucas, Adam Bosworth, John Schneider, Kenneth Vasilik

Patent number: 6859810Abstract: A mapping engine is provided to populate data elements of a first data structure of a first data representation with values of corresponding data elements of a second data structure of a second data representation, in accordance with at least a mapping specification. The two data structures may have different data shapes. The mapping specification may have a number of data element and data attribute mapping directives, including repeating data items. A population operation in a reversed direction may also be performed using the same mapping specification. The mapping specification may also specify an external mapping specification for a subset of the mapping operations. The external mapping specification may comprise unidirectional function pairs. In one embodiment, the mapping engine performs order dependent mapping facilitating the use of separate mapping rules for different instances of the same data element based upon the relative position of the data element instances within an input data structure.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2002Date of Patent: February 22, 2005Assignee: BEA Systems, Inc.Inventors: Cezar Christian Andrei, Adam Bosworth, David Bau, III

Publication number: 20040040011Abstract: A data processing representation is expressed in the form of code sections, which may be nested, using multiple programming languages. The representation is read by an execution engine. The execution engine identifies the language of each code section, and a corresponding language specific processing unit is invoked to process the code section. The processing unit reads that section, identifying sub-sections specified in it's associated language and other sub-sections specified in unknown languages. It executes the sub-sections specified in its associated language with the intended semantics and in the appropriate order. When a sub-section specified in an unknown language is encountered, it delegates processing of that sub-section back to the execution engine, which repeats this process for the unknown sub-section. The execution result is returned back to the requesting language specific processing unit, which continues processing from where it left off.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 19, 2002Publication date: February 26, 2004Inventors: Adam Bosworth, David Bau, Kenneth Eric Vasilik

Publication number: 20040031043Abstract: A data representation is read and parsed. A declaration referencing an executable namespace is recognized. An expression is recognized. A name (declared within the executable namespace) within the expression having zero or more additional data representations is also recognized. In response, functions corresponding to the name and additional data representations are recursively resolved, and caused to be invoked and executed, with the execution results of the inner functions successively provided for use in the execution of the outer functions. For each function, the function or a creator to create the function is instantiated. The instantiating is effectuated by following a path enumerated in the declaration for locating functions of the namespace. If a creator of the function is located and instantiated, the function is created using the function creator, and then the created function is instantiated. Upon instantiation, the referenced function is invoked and executed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2003Publication date: February 12, 2004Inventors: Adam Bosworth, David Bau, Kenneth Eric Vasilik

Publication number: 20020133808Abstract: A data processing program is specified using a specification having a number of cell specifications specifying a number of data processing cells, with each data processing cell having a formula specifying an action or a computation. A cell may have one or more attributes referencing other cells. A cell formula may reference a value of another cell or be executed conditionally. In one embodiment, one of the cell is reserved as an output cell specifying the output, and a mnemonic is reserved for providing input to the specified data processing. An execution analyzer is provided to analyze the data processing specification, and identify the execution order of the cells. Further, an execution engine is provided to effectuate the specified data processing by executing the specified actions/computations of the cells in accordance with the determined execution order.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2000Publication date: September 19, 2002Inventors: Adam Bosworth, David Bau, Kenneth Eric Vasilik

Patent number: 6016488Abstract: These and other objects, which will be apparent as the invention is more fully described, are provided by a method and system for constructing queries which make changes to an entire set of data stored in a database. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a user selects one or more tables from which to construct a query. Next, the system stores a list box for each selected table. Each list box is displayed on a user interface including a query window which includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The user selects one or more columns from the list boxes and drags the selected columns into a QBE grid located in the lower portion of the query window. The QBE grid provides a graphical representation of the query requested by the user. When the user invokes the query, the system determines the query type and performs appropriate action on the selected column from the selected tables.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 1998Date of Patent: January 18, 2000Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Adam Bosworth, Ross A. Hunter, David J. Habib

Patent number: 5713020Abstract: A method and system for displaying results of multiple level aggregation queries and providing hierarchical table sets in response to multiple level aggregation queries. In a preferred embodiment, a database engine program receives multiple-level aggregation queries from a database front-end program. A multiple level aggregation query defines two or more data aggregation levels. In response to a multiple-level aggregation query, the engine creates a hierarchical table set, which contains a separate table for each level of aggregation specified by the multiple-level aggregation query. Each table in the hierarchical table set contains the aggregation information for one level of the multiple-level aggregation query. In a preferred embodiment, the front-end uses the tables in the hierarchical table set to generate a hierarchical window display that the user can view.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 1993Date of Patent: January 27, 1998Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Allen Reiter, Stephen Charles Hecht, Matthew Bellew, Stephen Albert Brandli, Adam Bosworth
