Abstract: A system and associated method for detecting a statistical variation of a process from a textual log of the process as performed by a process behavior analysis (PBA) system for monitoring the process operating in an Information Technology (IT) delivery system. The PBA system includes a PBA engine and a data storage storing exception rules used by the PBA engine. The PBA engine merges entities appearing in the textual log into one or more groups based on similarities of respective time series of the entities. Control charts are generated for merged entities and the PBA engine subsequently analyzes process behavior of the process by use of the control charts for exceptions defined in the stored exception rules. The PBA engine generates a PBA report for the process pursuant to the analysis result of the textual log with detailed information including to what type of exceptions had or had not occurred.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention broadly contemplate systems, methods, apparatuses and program products providing a faceted search tool enabling a user to enter a natural language query that contains representative terms the user wants to search for, and a convenient interface display in which the facets which contain the searched values are automatically resolved and presented.

Abstract: Techniques for generating one or more artifacts for service delivery are provided. The techniques include receiving one or more service design inputs, using the one or more service design inputs to generate an internal representation of the service design, using the internal representation of the service to generate one or more artifacts of the service, and incorporating the one or more artifacts into the service design and outputting the service.

Abstract: Techniques for searching for a user interface (UI) are provided. The techniques include receiving a desired user interface as a query, determining meta-data for the desired user interface, wherein determining the meta-data for the desired user interface comprises converting the desired user interface query to a meta-data query, and using the meta-data query to search for the desired user interface, wherein searching for the desired user interface comprises querying meta-data of one or more existing user interfaces and selecting one or more similar user interfaces.

Abstract: A user interface service composer determines, based on a user interface request from a user interface consumer, one of a plurality of user interface service providers to be invoked; and consults a particular entry (corresponding to the service provider to be invoked) in a user interface data catalog having a plurality of entries for the plurality of user interface service providers. A request message, for rendering a user interface requested in the user interface request received from the user interface consumer, is routed from the user interface service composer to the given one of the plurality of user interface service providers that is to be invoked. The request message includes configuration parameters and interaction-related data, and is formatted in accordance with the particular entry in the user interface data catalog.

Abstract: A plurality of data attributes are displayed to a user. The user makes a selection of at least two of the attributes. An initial one of the selected attributes is displayed, together with all possible values for the initial one of the selected attributes. The user selects at least one of the possible values for the initial one of the selected attributes.
