  • Patent number: 8909585
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for rule-based binding. In one aspect, a method includes receiving first input to a graphical user interface (GUI) associating a property of a data model presented in the GUI with a data view component of a document presented in the GUI, wherein a change to a value of the data view component is reflected in a value of the property in the data model when the document is used in a workflow, and wherein the workflow is a logical sequence of documents, including the document, that is processed according to the logical sequence such that values for one or more data view components associated with the documents are received.

  • Patent number: 8856741
    Abstract: One embodiment involves a system comprising a network, a server, and a requesting device. The server and requesting device are connected with the network. The server comprises a processor configured to receive a request from the requesting device and determine information about the requesting device based at least in part on the request. The processor is further configured to determine an abstract representation of an application and at least one mapping from a plurality of mappings based at least in part on the information about the device. The abstract representation comprises a plurality of components. Each mapping comprises an attribute for at least one of the plurality of components. The processor is further configured to generate a version of the application on-the-fly based at least in part on the abstract representation and the at least one mapping and send the version of the application to the requesting device.
