Nalledath Palat Vinodkrishnan has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7424702
    Abstract: A device for modeling an integrated enterprise includes a first tool for constructing a model of the integrated enterprise and a second tool for analyzing calls, contained in the constructed model, between applications of the integrated enterprise and a database shared thereby. The call analysis tool identifies data attribute imbalances in calls between the applications of the integrated enterprise and the shared database. Data attribute imbalances result if the calls attempt to consume data which was never produced or if the calls produce data which is never consumed. The call analysis tool also generates producer/consumer maps of the data attributes used in the model, producer exception reports which identify data attributes which are consumed but never produced and consumer exception reports which identify data attributes which are produced but never consumed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7159209
    Abstract: A device for modeling an integrated enterprise includes a first tool for constructing a model of the integrated enterprise and a second tool for analyzing inter-application call sets contained in the constructed model. The second tool analyzes a selected inter-application call set by constructing a data attribute matrix having a row for each data attribute contained in at least one of the inter-application calls and a column for each one of the inter-application calls. The data attribute matrix is then marked to indicate which ones of the data attributes are contained in which ones of the selected inter-application calls. The constructed data attribute matrix may then be analyzed to identify improper association of data attributes with calls.
