Abstract: Methods and supporting systems are disclosed herein that when applied to enterprise applications built on various enterprise application development platforms are translated from the high-level platform-specific language into applications programmed using low-code objects that are deployable as edge-ready, cloud-based applications.

Abstract: A method of automatically generating an app with an app generation system comprising: defining an app type; defining a business process using a logical process model; automatically generating an app for a plurality of device operating systems and browsers in response to activating an app generation software application; enhancing the visual aspects of screens of the generated app; building integration logic using a drag and drop interface; publishing and managing the generated app; and analyzing user behavior, wherein the generation of the app includes providing automatic reporting of user behavior in use of the generated app.

Abstract: An app development platform that provides a unique way for anyone, without any programming skills, to build and deploy apps in 5 easy steps. Typically the entire end-to-end 5 step process from app conceptualization to app deployment can be done in 5 days or less. The platform is a Model-Driven platform that guides anyone with no programming skills through 5 steps that include 1) define the process; 2) enhance the screens; 3) build integration logic; 4) publish and manage; and 5) analyze user behavior.

Abstract: A system for exchanging information content between a back-end system within a restricted access environment and an end-user includes a front-end system and a manager node outside of the restricted environment, and an access node within the restricted environment. The front-end system executes a mini-application to output query data. The manager node receives the query data and applies business logic and connection parameters to generate a request for the information content in a first format. The manager node communicates the request to the access node in the first format. The access node converts the request to a second format particular to the back-end system, and conveys the request to the back-end system. Responses containing the information content are received at the access node from the back-end system. The access node converts the responses to the first format and sends information content contained in the responses to the front-end system via the manager node.

Abstract: A delegated business process management system for the Internet of Things is provided. The system includes a plurality of platform levels, wherein a business process is created and managed in a first platform level. The first platform level can delegate the ability and authorization to perform a task of a created business process to a second platform level, wherein the ability and authorization to perform the task includes the ability and authorization to communicate with other systems to obtain needed data. Further, the ability and authorization to perform the task includes the ability and authorization to delegate sub-tasks to a third platform level, wherein the ability and authorization to perform the sub-task includes the ability and authorization to communicate with other systems to obtain needed data. The ability to delegate to additional platform levels may occur for any number of possible platform levels that are available.

Abstract: A system for exchanging information content between a back-end system within a restricted access environment and an end-user includes a front-end system and a manager node outside of the restricted environment, and an access node within the restricted environment. The front-end system executes a mini-application to output query data, wherein the mini-application is created using a mini-application designer, builder and plugin. The manager node receives the query data and applies business logic and connection parameters to generate a request for the information content in a first format. The manager node communicates the request to the access node in the first format. The access node converts the request to a second format particular to the back-end system, and conveys the request to the back-end system. Responses are received at the access node from the back-end system, converted to the first format and sent to the front-end system.
