Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for displaying an automatically generated graphical display of a business process flow to facilitate user interaction with enterprise software applications. A compact symbolic annotation language is used in conjunction with a flow generator to automatically generate a computer renderable description of the business process flow. The method commences by defining symbols to form an alphabet to be used in the symbolic annotation language. The compact symbolic language is capable of representing rich semantics including process operations, fork operations, and join operations. Once an agent (e.g., a person, a computer agent) has captured a particular business process flow using symbols of the compact symbolic annotation language, then a computer process performs a mapping of the symbols to a markup language. The markup language can be rendered in a graphical display. The markup language can be HTML/CSS, SVG, UML, or another markup language.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and mechanism to implement a unified infrastructure for handling IoT components and devices. A platform is provided to integrate, access, and control any type of local device, and to use any type of back-end application to processed collected data from the local devices.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for mobile device interface generation. Embodiments commence upon receiving electronic communication comprising form metadata describing a user interface form. The form metadata comprises one or more field identifiers, which fields of the user interface form are bound to JSON messages (e.g., to receive field data). The form metadata further describes data types pertaining to the form fields, and the data types pertaining to the fields are used to select one or more user interface screen devices from a repository. One or more of the user interface screen devices are associated (e.g., bound) to occurrences of the same JSON message as were bound to fields of the user interface form. The selected one or more interface screen devices are output in a format of data that describes the selected interface screen devices in a manner for deployment on corresponding a mobile device or devices.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for building JSON message relationships for offline operation of an enterprise application is presented. The claimed embodiments address the problem of mobile application behavior during periods of limited access to backend application services and data. More specifically, some embodiments are directed to approaches for capturing request and response information communicated between a client device and application server when connected by a network, and storing respective relationships using the captured information. The stored requests and responses and respective relationships are used to emulate the backend services provided by the application server when the client device is disconnected from the network. In one or more embodiments, a crawler on the client device can generate simulated online requests to build a set of information for use by the emulator when the client device is disconnected from the application server.

Abstract: Systems to gamify a data processing application using auditing data. Processing commences upon accessing electronic records comprising a set of application auditing specifications that identify one or more transaction types to be executed by a data processing application. Certain transactions corresponding to the identified transaction types are observed by an auditing facility during operation of the data processing application. At least some of the identified transaction types and measured audit parameters corresponding to the transactions are recorded. A gamification module associates the measured audit parameters with game parameters. Motivational imagery such as a scoreboard is generated for display.

Abstract: Disclosed are improved methods, systems, and computer program products for implementing an action command engine to simplify an end user's experience in executing processes in applications by enabling an action command engine to guide a user through the process in a step by step fashion. Embodiments of the invention can be implemented in different modes of operations, such as manual mode, auto-entry mode, or batch fill mode. A universal next button may be deployed to guide end user's through any process or task in software applications.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for Java development environments. The method commences upon receiving a set of one or more rules to be applied to one or more JSON messages, then generating of one or more Java classes respective to received JSON messages. The received JSON messages can be retrieved from a repository for JSON message files, or the JSON messages can be received by sniffing a message transmitted over a network link. The rules can be applied according to one or more precedence regimes, and applying the precedence regimes over the two or more rules can be considered in a pre-processing step performed before receiving a JSON message or can be considered after receiving a JSON message.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a mechanism for monitoring data using a watchlist item and a watchlist item definition that includes a set of parameters for identifying a set of data items for user action and criteria for recommending or requiring user action for the set of data items to be identified.

Abstract: A rack and pinion steering system including a rack slidably supported within a housing that engages in a pinion gear. A yoke assembly, including a yoke member engaging the rack, operates to guide the rack and maintain engagement of the rack and pinion during operation of the steering system. A retainer member holds a yoke plug, used in the yoke assembly, in position and also seals the yoke assembly to provide a sealed interface that protects the internal components of the steering system from water and other contaminants.

Abstract: A vehicle includes first and second A-pillars with a cross-car beam connecting the first and second A-pillars. A steering column assembly is positioned within the vehicle and includes at least one pivot joint. A single attachment component directly connects the pivot joint to the cross-car beam.
