Abstract: A component selector may select a first software component stored in a software component library in conjunction with a first annotation, the first annotation being linked to a second annotation of a second software component via a link. An evaluation engine may evaluate a property expressed by the first annotation relative to a requirement expressed by the second annotation, and thereby verify compliance of the first software component and the second software component for inclusion within a software application being developed. A component update monitor may re-verify the compliance, based on an update to at least one of the first software component and the second software component.

Abstract: A multi-domain decision manager facilitates software development of a software application across knowledge domains, based on relationships between a first knowledge domain and a second knowledge domain. The multi-domain decision manager includes an assessment engine configured to construct a first assessment as an instantiation of a first knowledge base model of the first knowledge domain, and a second assessment as an instantiation of a second knowledge base model of the second knowledge domain. A relationship engine may be configured to characterize relationships between the first assessment and the second assessment, wherein the relationships characterize a likelihood that inclusion of a first selectable assessment option of the first assessment is associated with inclusion of a second selectable assessment option of the second assessment.

Abstract: Techniques for integrating a security protocol in an application include receiving a web protocol request generated by the application at an interceptor, the interceptor configured to read and write the web protocol request; receiving a selection of a role comprising one or more validation aspects and a plurality of extended application components; based on reading the web protocol request, retrieving configuration data associated with the web protocol request; adding the plurality of extended application components using the configuration data; and executing the web protocol in the application using the selected role.

Abstract: Techniques for managing a display of a system architecture include displaying a first visual representation of the system architecture that includes respective virtual representations of at least two components of the system architecture at a first level of detail; displaying a first virtual representation of a semantically relevant connector that extends between the two components of the system architecture at the first level of detail; receiving a request from a user to display a second visual representation of the system architecture; and generating a second visual representation of the system architecture for display, that includes respective virtual representations of the at least two components of the system architecture at a second level of detail different than the first level of detail, and a second virtual representation of the semantically relevant connector that extends between the at least two components of the system architecture at the second level of detail.
