Abstract: A system and method for software policy management are provided. A compiled policy-enabled software application includes a policy enforcement point to export an information element to a policy manager. The policy manager includes a policy interpreter having a policy decision point to perform policy decision making based on the received information element from the policy enforcement point. Through a plurality of policy decision points, the policy manager can execute a wide range of policies for different compiled software applications. Policies can be modified centrally in the policy interpreter and changes can affect either one or more of the policy-enabled software applications. A policy manager browser can create and manage the policy decision making performed by the policy interpreter.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for implementing a configurable browser-based form application. A configurable application toolset is provided, having a plurality of reusable browser-based form application components, or shells, that are configured in response to a received set of configuration parameters. Based on the configuration parameters, the toolset can be used to create any number of browser-based form applications. The application includes a browser-based form, a database, and rules governing the collection and storage of gathered and stored data. All of the configuration parameters are stored as data, so that no recompiling or modification of compiled software code in the shells is required when changes are needed, or an entirely new browser-based form application is desired. This reduces cost and time in software development.

Abstract: The invention provides, in part, the genomic sequence of a putative coronavirus, the SARS virus, and provides novel nucleic acid and amino acid sequences that may be used, for example, for the diagnosis, prophylaxis, or therapy of a variety of SARS virus related disorders.
