Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing UI push channels are disclosed. The UI push channels can be used to broadcast event notifications to multiple UIs whenever the information in an underlying data source is changed. In response to the event notifications, the UIs may update or refresh the displayed information so as to include the most current information in the data source. UI push channels are defined by associations between an application messaging channel (AMC) and the UI connection used to communicate with the client computing device and the application server. In particular, the UI push channels can be established by an AMC definition that defines a target data source, subscriber entities, and publisher entities. The listing of the publishers and the subscribers in the AMC definition infer the associations between the corresponding AMC and the UI connections.

Abstract: A user interface (UI) area having multiple data sources is regenerated based upon changes made to UI elements associated with the UI area. To efficiently regenerate the changed UI elements, a processor of the computer determines UI controls and data objects associated with the UI area to generate a conditional list. The conditional list includes corresponding events representing an association of the UI controls and the data objects. Based upon a modification to a data object, an optimized data binding structure is generated to determine a corresponding UI control that is affected by the modification. An updated UI controls list is computed to include the affected one or more UI controls based upon the optimized data binding structure. Based upon a trigger to render the UI area, the affected UIs are regenerated on the UI area by updating the affected UI controls based upon the modification.

Abstract: Example systems and methods of managing content are described. In one implementation, a method accesses a first set of data, a second set of data, and menu data. The menu data is associated with multiple menu actions relevant to the first set of data and the second set of data. The method generates display data that allows a display device to present the first set of data, the second set of data, and the menu to a user such that the menu is positioned between the first set of data and the second set of data. The method receives a user selection of a menu action and, based on the user selection, generates a graphical object that allows the user to indicate whether to apply the selected menu action to the first set of data or the second set of data.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for detection of relationships between objects in a meta-model semantic network is described. Semantic objects and semantic relations of a meta-model of business objects are generated from a meta-model semantic network. The semantic relations are based on connections between the semantic objects. A neural network is formed based on usage of the semantic objects and the semantic relations. The neural network is integrated with the semantic objects and the semantic relations to generate a contextual network. A statistical analysis of the connections between the semantic objects in the contextual network is performed to identify stronger semantic relations. The identified stronger semantic relations are used to update the neural network. The updated neural network is integrated into the contextual network.

Various embodiments contemplate a system where a plurality of data clients are connected to one or more shared data stores. A secure data storage facility is provided on one or more of the shared data stores by using an encryption scheme. Encryption keys for decrypting the sensitive data are stored on the same data store as sensitive data which may be decrypted using the encryption keys in question. To provide another layer of protection, the data encryption keys are themselves encrypted using a key encryption key (KEK), which is generated by, and stored in a local persistent data store associated with the data clients.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to management of data accessed from a database. A usage tracking engine of an application layer overlying a database, may automatically track (e.g. with a time stamp) access to specific data objects by particular users. This automatic tracking may be based upon one or more of the following: frequency of access, recency of access, user geographic location, and user calendar events. Based upon this data, the tracking engine applies an algorithm to automatically identify those data objects meriting special handling for quick access (e.g. for placement in a “shelf” or other construct readily accessible to the user). A heuristic learning module may generate a data object ranking based upon the usage data, and communicate that ranking to the usage tracking engine to determine a data object's eligibility for placement on the “shelf”. Such ranking may consider personalized settings, and/or a user's past manual shelf placement of data object(s).

Abstract: Described herein is a technology for facilitating optimization of database queries is described herein. In some implementations, a first query is received.

Abstract: A method to store objects in a memory cache is disclosed. A request is received from an application to store an object in a memory cache associated with the application. The object is stored in a cache region of the memory cache based on an identification that the object has no potential for storage in a shared memory cache and a determination that the cache region is associated with a storage policy that specifies that objects to be stored in the cache region are to be stored in a local memory cache and that a garbage collector is not to remove objects stored in the cache region from the local memory cache.

Abstract: A computer-implemented smart recovery system for dynamic workflows addresses a change to a data object during execution of an instance of a workflow by selectively re-executing workflow tasks that are affected by the change, without cancelling the instance and restarting a new instance of the workflow. A determination of whether a task is to be re-executed during the smart recovery process may include examining a re-evaluation label assigned to the task.

Abstract: The subject matter described herein relates to software routines called application exits that are provided at well defined phases of a tenant copy process. The tenant copy process enables copying of separated tenant data associated with a source tenant at multi-computing tenant system to a new created tenant at a destination location either at multi-computing tenant computing system or second multi-computing tenant computing system. The application exits perform predefined functions at the well defined phases such that the predefined functions enable operations including detachment of tenant data from the source tenant that needs to be copied or moved such that the detached tenant data is separated tenant data. When the source tenant is just being moved, instead of being copied, from a source location to a destination location, the source tenant is deleted once all the data associated with the source tenant has been moved to the destination location.
