Abstract: Methods and systems herein employ graphical elements as a coding basis within a development platform to develop Web applications that access and aggregate real-time data of connected devices. The development platform includes testing and development functions to simplify the development of mashup web applications. In one aspect, the platform causes updates of the client-side applications, and the real-time data to be received at each test device with a save action of the development workspace. In another aspect, the platform inserts code to enable caching operations at the client-side applications, based on associative linking of the graphical objects during development. In another aspect, the platform employs multiple-level hierarchical real-time data to enable the client-side applications to maintain client-side cursors of the last presentation state of the data upon an update of the applications.

Abstract: A system and method for developing real-time web-service objects. The method includes providing a client-side application running on a connected device. The client-side application executes Webpage definition files having a composite Web-service objects, including a first and second composite Web-service objects where each of the object has been associatively linked to a data service from a data source. The method includes receiving, during runtime of the client-side application, a first updated data content from the data source. The method includes caching the first updated data content in memory and, upon receiving a second updated data content, retrieving the first updated data content from memory and updating the composite Web-service objects of the Webpage definition files using the first and second update data contents.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for managing data using semantic tags. The method may include providing a data model corresponding to a first set of tangible objects where the data model includes a first template class having both properties describing the set of tangible object and a set of semantic tags corresponding to the properties. The method may include receiving a class definition for a second template class for a second set of tangible objects where the second template class inherits, by the class definition, the properties and the sematic tags for the second set of tangible objects.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for testing computing devices in a heterogeneous environment. The method includes providing a development workspace for a set of Webpage definition files. The method includes storing, responsive to a save command being received by an input at the development workspace, a set of modified Webpage definition files where the set of modified Webpage definition files includes at least one modification in relation to the Webpage definition files associated with a previous save command. The method includes causing, by a processor responding to the save command, a message to be transmitted to one or more computing devices. The message causes each of the computing device to receive the set of modified Webpage definition files where the receipt of the set of modified Webpage definition files occurs without any input by a user at the client-side application.
