Abstract: An embodiment includes generating first and second preliminary schedules for respective first and second workers assigned respective first and second tasks, detects a block of time that is part of both the first and second preliminary schedules, and generates respective first and second location predictions for the first and second workers during the block of time. The embodiment calculates a distance between the first and second workers based on the first and second location predictions, and revises, responsive to determining that the distance is less than a threshold value, the second preliminary schedule to replace the first block of time with a second block of time that is not part of the first preliminary schedule. The embodiment generates an access control list that includes the first preliminary schedule as a first access schedule for the first worker for use in responding to access queries.

Abstract: A system and method for simulation of interactions between computing system solution components using actual data collected from operations of previously designed and deployed computing solutions and arrangements, utilizing a message-based integration of components of the system under design wherein response messages are determined at least in part by analysis of the actual customer data in response to messages emitted from system components during operation simulation.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically aggregating and bundling electronic document files related to a newly designed or revised computing system solution having a plurality of configured instantiations of component behavioral models, each of instantiation having been previously configured via behavioral parameters interface parameters, including a documentation retriever which verifies configuration completion of the instances, determines if one or more electronic documents are available for each instance, and retrieves the electronic documents; a documentation bundler which aggregates the retrieved documents into an electronically deliverable document bundle; and a documentation transmitter which transmits the document bundle to a customer. Document bundles can include common single-file aggregations, such as archive, cabinet, or ZIP files, or may include an index page having links to organized documents stored on a server.

Abstract: A system and method for debugging system solutions under design which cooperates with a solution design platform in which relationships between two or more system-level computing components are defined, in which each system-level computing component is associated with a behavioral model, and in which each relationship between system-level computing components is defined as a message-based communications interface. During simulation of the solution, messages are created by analysis of each behavioral model, and are transported or exchanged between system components. The debugging facility monitors interfaces between the system-level components, captures messages at the monitored interfaces, and adds tracking information to the captured messages. Following simulation, the stored messages and tracking information can be reformatted and displayed for review by the user to assist in determination of the problems in system-level operation.

Abstract: A system for configuring interfaces between system solution components and component behaviors cooperative with a system solution design tool in which each connection or interface between system components defined by the user results in the display of a first prompt to select a basic, automatic, or advanced mode of defining the interface parameters and component configuration options. If the user has a low level of expertise in the components being used, the user may select the automatic or basic option, following which the system design tool employs a nearly fully pre-configured deployment descriptor, prompting the user for a minimum of parameter choices. If the user has a high level of expertise with the components being used, the system design tool then prompts the user for a greater set of options and choices, following which a configurable deployment descriptor is configured according to the expert user's choices.

Abstract: A computing solution is defined by displaying to a user in a graphical user interface a palette of icons representing available computing system components for potential use in a computing solution, each of which has an associated partially-defined behavioral model. The partially-defined behavioral models contain configurable behavioral and interface parameters. When the user selects one or more of the computing system components on the palette, an instance of each selected component is created, placed, arranged and displayed in a design area. The user can then define connections between each instance of component in the design area, which triggers predetermined logical processes to prompt the user for inputs to complete the partially-defined models for each instance of component. Finally, system solution behavioral model is created or saved comprising a collection of configured component instance behavioral models.

Abstract: A license package generator for use with a solution builder tool, which determines if one or more licenses are available for each behavioral model instance in a computing solution, obtains a license code for each configured behavioral model instance for which a license is available, and generates a license package including the obtained license codes. If a component does not require a license, or if a license is required but unavailable, a note is made in the license package to that affect. The system preferably interfaces to and cooperates with a license management system, and a contract compliance management system.

Abstract: A system for generating deployment descriptor files for automation of installation and integration of computing system solution components such as databases, application programs, communications protocols, and the like, to form an enterprise computing solution. Configurable behavioral models are associated with a system solution design, each of which is associated with a class or type of each of system solution component. Instantiations of the behavioral models are each configured to contain behavioral parameters and interface parameters according to a set of user inputs, thereby defining connection logic pairs or groups of said model instances. Behavioral parameters and interface parameters are extracted by the invention from each configured behavioral model instance to generate a deployment descriptor file compatible with a targeted computing system environment.
