Abstract: A business object model, which reflects data that is used during a given business transaction, is utilized to generate interfaces. This business object model facilitates commercial transactions by providing consistent interfaces that are suitable for use across industries, across businesses, and across different departments within a business during a business transaction. In some operations, software creates, updates, or otherwise processes information related to an export declaration and/or an export declaration request business object.

Abstract: A comprehensive security architecture for a virtual organization (VO) is disclosed. The comprehensive security architecture uses the same security mechanism or substantially similar security mechanisms to control access to VO infrastructure services as it uses to control access to resource services. Infrastructure services are services used to change the state of the VO and to change membership in the VO. Resource services (e.g. processing a purchase order) are services used in furtherance of achieving the objectives of the VO (e.g. build an aircraft). A security mechanism prevents a service call from accessing the service called until the security mechanism has decided to authorize or deny the service call. A security mechanism may decide to authorize or deny the service call based on details of the service call, a set of role-based access policies, and attributes from the caller's credentials including the caller's role in the VO.

Abstract: A system and method for adding and/or removing a software product to a distribution server is provided. Upon identification that a software product desired is not indexed in the installation server database of the distribution server, then adding the software product to the distribution server. The distribution server maintains multiple products, every product components of the multiple products is indexed by the installation server database of the distribution server. Removal of a software product requires removal of the software product from the index maintained by the installation server database of the distribution server.

Abstract: A computer system, in which cancellation status models are used. The computer system receives a request to cancel a parent data object node instance and accesses a first cancellation building block that models a first cancellation subprocess for the first type of data object node and that is integrated in a first status schema defined for the first type of data object node. The computer system executes cancellation of the parent data object node instance by accessing data that indicates whether or not a child data object node instance is able to be cancelled and conditioning cancellation of the parent data object node instance on the accessed data indicating that the child data object node instance is able to be cancelled.

A request for a presentation application is received from the user device. The presentation application is to display the data via execution of the selected applications. In response to the request, the presentation application is generated based on the configuration data, and includes the selected applications. The presentation application is then transmitted to the user device for execution.

Abstract: A core system including different program components performing distinct tasks in a workflow sequence that are initiated through status field updates of objects in database may be modified to define a new status triggering additional processes in an action management system. Once the additional processes are completed, the status field may be changed to an original status provided by the core system to trigger a second program component in the workflow sequence. The action management system may contain user customized processes that may be modified and changed independent of the functionality provided by the core system.

Abstract: A monitoring system includes a control circuit configured to determine scrap values, yield values, and remainder values for at least a first operation and a second operation. The control circuit is configured to transmit one or more display signals. The one or more display signals include instructions to display a first operation status bar and a second operation status bar. The first operation status bar includes a first operation yield value, a first operation scrap value, and a first operation remainder value. The second operation status bar includes a second operation yield value, a second operation scrap value, and a second operation remainder value.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for tracking files attached to electronic messages. One process includes operations for receiving a message, the message including information to be displayed by a message reading application, the message including a first indication that a file was attached to the earlier message, wherein the first indication is marked to not be displayed with the information by the message reading application; determining that the file is not attached to the message; sending a request for the file to a user identifier, the user identifier being included in the message and associated with the file or the earlier message or both; and receiving the file.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a method of computer program compilation is presented. In this method, a compiler for a first programming language is provided. In one example, the first programming language allows a data assignment to depend on a result of a previous data assignment. Source code including a first portion written in the first programming language and a second portion written in a second programming language is accessed, with the second portion representing a data transformation from a first data structure accessible in the first portion to a second data structure accessible in the first portion. In one example, the second programming language prevents a data assignment that depends on a result of a previous data assignment. The source code is compiled using the compiler to generate executable code to be executed by an engine for the first programming language, which includes an interpretation engine to interpret the second portion.

Abstract: A procedural pattern in a received query execution plan can be matched to a stored pattern for which an equivalent declarative operator has been pre-defined. The query execution plan can describe a query for accessing data. A hybrid execution plan can be generated by replacing the procedural pattern with the equivalent declarative operator. A hybrid execution plan processing cost can be assigned to execution of the hybrid execution plan and a query execution plan processing cost can be assigned to execution of the query execution plan. The assigning can include evaluating a cost model for the hybrid execution plan and the query execution plan. The query can be executed using the hybrid execution plan if the hybrid execution plan processing cost is less than the query execution plan processing cost or the query execution plan if the hybrid execution plan processing cost is greater than the query execution plan processing cost. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are disclosed.
