  • Method and system for determining software license compliance
    Patent number: 8725647
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method includes providing one or more selectable criteria that each characterize a respective software license restriction. One or more selections of the one or more selectable criteria are received. A license metric is generated. The license metric corresponds to one or more selections of the one or more selectable criteria. A total number of instances of one or more software products is determined using the generated license metric.
    Type: Grant

  • Method and system for determining software license compliance
    Patent number: 8606718
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method for determining license compliance includes receiving data regarding a plurality of licenses, including at least first and second licenses. The first license has a corresponding first license count that applies to a first software product. The second license has a corresponding second license count that applies to the first software product. An instance count of the first software product is determined. A determination is made regarding whether the instance count can be apportioned to the first and second licenses, such that neither the first or second license counts are exceeded.

  • Meta-architecture for multi-tiered enterprise software application and system
    Patent number: 8185915
    Abstract: A method for dynamic manipulation of a multi-tiered enterprise software application comprises providing a meta-architecture in a presentation tier of a multi-tiered enterprise software application. The meta-architecture comprises at least screen content associated with the software application. The meta-architecture is capable of tying at least two tiers of the multi-tiered enterprise software application together, and allowing the dynamic manipulation of the multi-tiered enterprise software application without at least one of reprogramming the multi-tiered enterprise software application and recompiling source code for the multi-tiered enterprise software application. The method concludes by storing the meta-architecture in a database repository.

  • Method and System for Determining Software License Compliance
    Publication number: 20090249493
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method includes receiving data regarding a plurality of licenses. Each license is associated with one or more respective software products. The data is partitioned such that first and second licenses of the plurality of licenses are grouped together. The first and second licenses are each associated with at least a first software product of the one or more respective software products. A first group identification is assigned to the first and second licenses.
