Abstract: A method and system for representing business processes such as in a workflow model. Each of a plurality of processes is defined as a 3-tuple including a noun, a verb and an attribute, and a selected process is displayed as a point in navigation space. In this manner, business processes are classified and organized in terms of a 3-dimensional process navigation space facilitating process identification, decomposition and definition by traversal of this space.

Abstract: Dynamic interfaces such as PPP interfaces are configured by (1) saving routing configuration information using symbolic names; (2) determining when a symbolically named interface becomes active; (3) resolving the symbolic name to an operational IP address for routing and RIP traffic; and thereafter (4) communicating dynamic protocol packets over the dynamic interface.

Abstract: A host computer is operated as a gateway interfacing a plurality of network interfaces in a communication system including local area networks and wide area networks. A redistribution parameter is maintained in a configuration file for each of a plurality of network interfaces, with the redistribution parameter defaulted to *full for local area network interfaces and to *limited for wide area network interfaces. Responsive to receiving a routing update (a route) from a wide area network interface, the route is advertised to interfaces having a redistribution parameter of *full and not to those interfaces having a redistribution parameter of *limited.

Abstract: Apparatus and computer implemented method for process modeling using both a web server and a workflow server in process definition. During buildtime, a process definition in the language of some workflow process modeler is fed to transform f(p), which provides a translate process definition into a hypertext markup language (HTML) representation of the workflow process. A user utilizing the facilities of an HTTP server may operate a web browser to request that HTTP server provide the HTML process definition to enable the user to create, or read and modify, the process definition as desired. The result is then fed through an inverse transform f'(p) to a workflow server in the language of that server, for invocation and execution during runtime of the programs defined during buildtime.

Abstract: Automated testing of software application interfaces, object methods and commands, including testing software using order-based genetic algorithms to search for and detect symptoms of software errors by generating test sequences which converge on points in invocation space more likely to cause error symptoms.
