Abstract: A method for controlling access to a network includes, with a client device, sending a request over a network to a server to determine a public logical address for the client device, determining, using the public logical address, whether the client device is connected to the network through one of a number of approved network service providers, and disconnecting from the network if the client device is not connected to the network through one of the approved network service providers.

Abstract: A method for client side caching includes, with a client system, running a proxy caching application designed for execution on a proxy server, with a content presentation application running on the client system, accessing content from a server communicatively coupled to the client system, and with the proxy caching application, transparently caching the content into a cache system of the client system.

Abstract: A system and method for creating applications, such as web applications, is disclosed. The system may comprise a controller generator that is adapted to provide an application with a controller that receives a request for data from a user and responds to the request by sending information to the user. The system may also include an error handler generator that is adapted to provide an error handler that performs error handling functionality during operation of the application if an error occurs during the processing of the request for data based on error data that is stored in an error catalog.

Abstract: A system and method that uses a process management console to maintain multiple processes that perform software services from within a presentation layer and a database layer. The method includes defining an active process list for a plurality of processes that provide services in the presentation and database layers. Another step is monitoring the plurality of processes that are active in the presentation and database layers by using a process monitor. The next step is determining when one of the processes has abnormally terminated, using the process monitor to periodically compare the active process list to the list of processes currently executing. When a process fails, the system reactivates the process under the automatic control of the process monitor, and the reactivation is performed automatically. The system can also generate an error message that is logged or sent as an email to support personnel when a process has failed.
