Patent number: 8612931Abstract: An interactive design of process model for packaged application software installation and configuration generates a process model from a natural language description of software installation or configuration related operation. A data structure representing one or more work products related to the process model is identified, and one or more elements of the data structure are identified that are related to one or more sub-processes of the process model. Input information associated with said one or more sub-processes is captured and stored. The input information is linked with the one or more elements of the data structure related to said one or more sub-processes. The one or more sub-processes in the process model may be also demonstrated through a simulation.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2010Date of Patent: December 17, 2013Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Manisha D. Bhandar, Richard T. Goodwin, Anca A. Ivan, Juhnyoung Lee, Pietro Mazzoleni, Rakesh Mohan, Aubrey J. Rembert, Biplav Srivastava

Patent number: 8607191Abstract: A method for business process to customized program code mapping in a pre-packaged computing solution can include establishing a connection from a business process to code mapping module executing in memory by a processor of a computer to a source pre-packaged computing solution, extracting both a business process hierarchy (BPH) and customized program code from the source pre-packaged computing solution, storing the BPH and the extracted customized program code in storage coupled to the computer, selecting a business process in the BPH and mapping the selected business process to corresponding portions of the customized program code, and generating and displaying in the computer a dependency graph indicating dependency relationships of the mapped portions of the customized program code for the selected business process of the BPH of the source pre-packaged computing solution.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2010Date of Patent: December 10, 2013Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Julian T. Dolby, Richard T. Goodwin, Anca A. Ivan, Igor A. Naumov, Manas R. Kumar Singh

Patent number: 8589877Abstract: One or more document templates defining deployment procedures associated with deploying a packaged software application are obtained. One or more objects are created representing the one or more document templates and one or more elements of the one or more documents, and one or more links between the one or more objects are created. The one or more links represent one or more relationships between the created one or more objects. The one or more objects and the one or more links may be stored and/or output in a selected format.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2009Date of Patent: November 19, 2013Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Manisha D. Bhandar, Kathleen Byrnes, Dennis A. Conrad, Maharshi H. Desai, Pankaj Dhoolia, Sweefen Goh, Richard T. Goodwin, Anca A.

Publication number: 20120084224Abstract: Reports to manage service projects may be generated by an automatically generated project report generator software tool. The project report generator software tool is automatically created from an object-based model of work products in a project, wherein the object-based model is executable by a machine and comprises a plurality of work product object and a recording of at least some relationships between the object, wherein each work product object represents a document that contains information about the service project. One or more reports can be generated by the project report generator software tool during the lifetime of the service project, wherein the report is generated using the object-based model and at least some of the information in documents represented in the object-based model.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2010Publication date: April 5, 2012Applicant: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Manisha D. Bhandar, Prahlad Chowdhury, Maharshi H. Desai, Pankaj Dhoolia, Richard T. Goodwin, Anca A. Ivan, Juhnyoung Lee, Pietro Mazzoleni, Rakesh Mohan, Debdoot Mukherjee, Sujoy Roy, Ajay Satsangi, Vibha S.
