Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for managing configuration data. These are particularly directed towards the management of configuration data in disconnected remote devices of a host system. For example, this may be an access control environment having one or more connected access control devices (i.e. devices in communication with a central server), and one or more disconnected access control devices (i.e. devices operating without communication with the central server), the latter being regarded as disconnected remote devices. In overview, the present systems and methods make use of a versioning protocol to allow the reliable distribution of configuration data at the disconnected remote devices, this protocol operating to best ensure the propagation of the most current configuration data.

Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for managing business objects. In overview, various embodiments provide software, hardware and methodologies underlying a data driven application including a data driven business layer, optionally in combination with a data driven user interface and presentation layer. In overview, an object-oriented computer program includes a presentation layer, a business layer, and a database. The business layer provides business objects, which effectively interpose the presentation layer with the database. Substantive business object data is defined within the database, and loaded to the business layer following the receipt of a page call-up request at the presentation layer.
