Abstract: A hierarchical modular software development tool provides a graphical user interface to allow development of hierarchical module software components. The software development tool allows graphical creation of a software component processing hierarchy and then generates a software component using this specified processing hierarchy. The packages developed using this tool are able to include event modules that allow sub-branches of the software component processing hierarchy to be executed without requiring processing of modules of the software component hierarchy that precede the event nodes. Further nodes that are able to be included in the processing hierarchy include action nodes, that contain operational software, and conditional nodes that allow condition testing and conditional execution of processing branches.

Abstract: A system, a computer readable medium and a method in a client-server environment, to manage a configuration of resources on client systems. This includes receiving one or more predetermined events along with one or more local run-time environmental conditions along with one or more user selectable settings. The events, the settings and the environmental conditions are previously set graphically using a graphical user interface with one or more user selectable selections therein on a server. These events, local run-time environmental conditions along with settings are delivered to a client system. A monitoring agent on the client system is used to detect when one or more predetermined events occur including if the client system is a portable computer as opposed to a desktop computer.

A monitoring agent on the client system is used to detect when one or more predetermined events occur. When an event occurs, a test is made to determine if one or more local run-time environmental conditions are met, and if the conditions are met then the agent automatically applies one or more selectable configuration settings on the client system.
