Abstract: A method is provided for generating reports for a computer monitored or aided environment that has a server-side module, a client-side module and a database, the server-side module, client-side module and database being interconnected, The method includes creating a report layout, the report layout containing a predefined number of dynamic fields at predetermined positions; associating, at the server-side, each dynamic field with a data source; collecting, at the server-side, information for each dynamic field according to the associated data source; storing the information in the database; and displaying the information for each dynamic field on a display according to the report layout. The report layout is shared universally for the generation of a displayed report and a printed report.

Abstract: A method of simplifying the programming of animation of vector graphics for the graphic user interface of, for example, a SCADA system. The programming method allows the programmer to input unique yet simple instruction codes instead of inputting multiple lines of logic script to animate vector graphic objects and texts. An animation engine is used to interpret the simple instruction codes and instruct the browser to perform the necessary animation on the selected vector graphic objects.
