  • Synchronization of recipe structures and bill of materials including the adjustment to manufacturing requirements
    Patent number: 9305270
    Abstract: A system and method of synchronizing recipes and bills of materials (BOM). An approved recipe is parameterized in a planning interface.

  • Dynamic access of data
    Patent number: 9256655
    Abstract: A heterogeneous information technology system in which compatible and incompatible client systems are able to dynamically access master data stored in a master database maintained by a master data server. An integration server communicates with the client systems and the master data server, and in response to a request for data from a client system, maps the master data in the master database to mapped data based on a set of mapping rules associated with the client system, and sends the mapped data to the client system.

  • DMZ framework
    Patent number: 8825854
    Abstract: A method and system for providing a secure method and process for accessing resources that are made available by a server. A demilitarized zone (DMZ) framework provides a frontend system that is protected by a firewall and separated from a backend system by a second firewall. The frontend system provides the user interface functionality common to the backend but contains no access directly to the resources that the user interface operates upon. Placing the user interface on a separate machine from the resource data provides an additional layer of security. In addition, separate communication protocols are used between the user and the frontend and between the frontend and the backend system. Thus, a malicious programmer or program will not know the location of the resource or the method for communicating with the backend server to access the resource.

  • Batch management systems and methods
    Patent number: 8533149
    Abstract: Example systems and methods of managing product genealogy data across distributed systems are described. In one implementation, a method identifies a material associated with a product that is part of a product batch. Usage information associated with the material is accessed, and a handling unit associated with the product batch is identified. Delivery information associated with the product batch is also accessed. A genealogy is generated for the product batch based on the material, the usage information, the handling unit, and the delivery information.

    Patent number: 7308435
    Abstract: A computer system is provided for modeling the structure of an enterprise comprising a first class of objects. An object of the class may represent an organizational unit of the enterprise. The class may comprise a method for assigning and/or deassigning to an object of the class at least one attribute from at least five types of attributes comprising: a first type describing a work to be performed by the unit; a second type describing a legal entity, which the unit represents; a third type describing a disciplinary or line management properties of the unit; a fourth type describing a financial responsibility of the unit; and a fifth type describing a location, which the unit represents. The system may further include means for assigning and/or deassigning to an object of said class at least one property depending on the assigned attribute.
