Abstract: A principal model is configured within a memory to facilitate automatic generation of at least one resource for use by a computer-executable application. At least one model item required for a task that is absent from the principal model is identified. The absent model item is instantiated in a decoration model that operates with the principal model to augment operational functionality of the principal model.

Abstract: A principal model is configured to facilitate automatic generation of at least one resource for use by a computer-executable application. The principal model includes a group of classes, references, attributes, and associations between any of the classes. At least one model item required for a task that is absent from the principal model is identified. The absent model item is instantiated in a decoration model that operates with the principal model to augment operational functionality of the principal model. The decoration model includes a class, a reference, and an attribute for any corresponding one of the group of classes, references, and attributes of the principal model.

Abstract: Augmenting a model in a model-driven application development architecture, including defining a task to be performed on at least one model item of a principal model, where the principal model is configured to facilitate the automatic generation of at least one resource for use by a computer-executable application, identifying at least one model item required for use the task that is absent from the principal model, defining the absent model item in a decoration model, mapping the decoration model to the principal model, and storing both of the models on a computer-readable medium.

Abstract: An enterprise application system including a run-time transformation server, and a message broker for routing and transforming data in the form of messages between a source application and a target application, including a plug-in for preparing requests to the run-time transformation server and for processing responses from the run-time transformation server. A method is also described and claimed.

Abstract: An enterprise information unification system including an information modeler for modeling business entities and their properties as an information model, the information model being comprised of business constructs, a data rationalizer for generating mappings from physical data assets to the information model, the physical data assets being comprised of data asset constructs, and a data thesaurus for automating tasks of data management based on the mappings. A method is also described and claimed.
