  • Publication number: 20070118538
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to deploying XForms in an enterprise environment and provide a method, system and computer program product for forms integration of an external data model not implemented through a DOM accessible API. In one embodiment of the invention, a method for forms integration of an external data model not implemented through a DOM accessible API can include generating a data graph for an external data model for a forms based application and transforming the data graph into a DOM representation of the data graph. Value changes for fields of a form in the forms based application can be applied to nodes of the DOM representation and mutations in the nodes of the DOM representation can be synchronized to corresponding nodes in the data graph.

  • Publication number: 20070092527
    Abstract: This invention relates to the newly identified utility of certain G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), in particular to OGR1, GPR4 and TDAG8 (TDAG8 is also named GPR65) polypeptides, and polynucleotides encoding such GPCR polypeptides, to their use in diagnosis and to methods of identifying compounds that are agonists or antagonists to said GPCRs, and to the production of such polypeptides and polynucleotides.

  • Publication number: 20070033595
    Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for interleaving XForms with JSF request processing can be provided. The system can include an XForms definition generated for a form configured for rendering in a Web application. Specifically, the XForms definition can specify a data model for data to be processed within the form. The system further can include a JSF code generation module programmed to process the forms model to produce a form bean, a faces configuration, and a JSF page for each navigable view defined in the XForms definition.

  • Patent number: 7103844
    Abstract: A portlet data synchronization system, method and apparatus. The system can include a portal server configured to distribute portal content to requesting clients over a computer communications network. The system further can include one or more portlets hosted within the portal content through the portal server. Finally, the system can include a synchronization aggregator configured to aggregate synchronization markup for individual ones of the portlets in a single synchronization envelope. The synchronization aggregator further can be have a configuration for distributing responses to the synchronization markup to respective ones of the portlets.

  • Publication number: 20060047777
    Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for enhancing the run-time display of a portlet using dynamically applied portlet skins. In this regard, a portlet display enhancement system can include a portlet aggregator configured to aggregate portlet views into a portal page, and alternate skin insertion logic programmed to wrap at least one portlet view with an alternate skin in lieu of a static skin. A portlet filter can be communicatively coupled to the portlet aggregator and configured to manage the alternate skin insertion logic. Alternatively, a servlet can be communicatively coupled to the portlet aggregator and configured to manage the alternate skin insertion logic. The alternate skin can include a debug skin. Moreover, the alternate skin can include an auxiliary control programmed to activate an auxiliary view. In this regard, the auxiliary view can include additional debug information.

  • Publication number: 20050198201
    Abstract: Content aggregation is used to build administration consoles. Preferred embodiments enable providing a solution-based approach to information technology (“IT”) administration, whereby content can be flexibly arranged to provide a content view that is adapted for the IT solution deployed in a particular IT environment. In preferred embodiments, portal technology is used for the aggregation framework, and portlets are used for creating content. Alternatively, other approaches such as struts and tiles may be used. Preferred embodiments deploy an administration console as a Web-accessible application, and this console consolidates the administration interfaces for an arbitrary set of management operations, including administration of an arbitrary collection of hardware and/or software resources. Roles/permissions may be used when rendering content for the console, thereby customizing a view to individual end users (or user groups).

  • Publication number: 20050071853
    Abstract: A user interface template that implements a task pattern for a model class and a model adapter that provides an interface for the application that conforms to the model class are identified. A user interface for the application is created from the identified user interface template and the identified model adapter. The user interface template may include a generic view and a generic controller. The model adapter may provide a business object interface, and may be configured to communicate with the application via a J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA) connector. The user interface template may define an abstract portlet, and creating a user interface includes creating a portlet instance that communicates with the application via the model adapter. The portlet instance may be configured using an application portlet builder portlet. The portlet builder may also identify the user interface template and the model adapter.
