  • Using status models with state guards in a computer system
    Patent number: 8522261
    Abstract: A design-time status schema model describes the progress of a data object through a computing process. The status schema model includes status variables, processing actions and constraints for performing actions. The status schema model also may describe permitted changes to a status variable in response to performing an action. At runtime, the status schema model is used to control processing performed by, or on, an instance of a data object corresponding to the status schema model.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 28, 2006
    Date of Patent: August 27, 2013
    Assignee: SAP AG

  • System and method for object state management
    Publication number: 20080005747
    Abstract: A system and method for object state management. According to an embodiment of the invention, a status management runtime environment receives a request by an application object node to determine whether an action is allowed to be performed, makes a determination, pursuant to the request, as to whether the action is allowed to be performed based at least in part on status information associated with the application object node in a status repository, and sends the determination to the application object node in response to the request.
