Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, devices, apparatus, media, design structures, and other implementations, including a method that includes receiving, at a local device from a remote device, query data representative of a question relating to source content of a source document of a repository of a plurality of source documents, with the source content being associated with transformed content accessible from the local device. The method further includes generating, in response to determination, at the local device, of a match between the query data and at least one portion of the transformed content, output data comprising one or more of a pointer to access, in the source document accessible from the remote device, at least one portion of the source document corresponding to the at least one portion of the transformed content, or a copy of the at least one portion of the source document.

Abstract: A method of and system for providing one or more third-party program(s) the ability to access and cache the data of an existing software application that does not support standard database protocols. The invention employs a database shaping application for generating a rule set during a training sequence. The database shaping application monitors requests for data from third party programs and, according to the rule set, accesses the requested data from one or more existing host applications and translates the accessed data into a standard database protocol format, thereby emulating a database of the existing host application(s).

Abstract: A system for and method of providing a new client interface to an existing application. The various embodiments described employ a trainable user interface translator application to monitor, analyze, and reformat data packet streams. The translator application analyzes data packet streams during a training session using a first client device and a training terminal, and stores format information in format data packet maps for subsequent use following creation of a new client interface.

Abstract: A system for and method of automating the execution of a data stream transformation project. The various embodiments described employ a trainable user interface translator application to record and manipulate data streams between a prospect's terminal emulation software and one or more prospect applications to be transformed. A remote user in communication with the prospect may observe prospect terminal screen displays, and optionally insert data, such as synchronization data into the recorded data streams. The user inserts the recorded data streams information into a targeted procedures model, which may be reviewed for approval by the prospect.

Abstract: A system for and method of automatically migrating data among multiple legacy applications and accessible storage formats. The various embodiments described employ a trainable user interface translator application to monitor, reinterpret, and reformat data streams. The sequences of steps necessary to migrate data are recorded in a shaper rule set during a training session. Automatic migration of data is accomplished by operating the trainable user interface translator application in normal run mode in accordance with a shaper rule set previously created during the training session.

Abstract: A system for and method of providing interfaces between client devices and existing software applications. This may include interfacing existing software applications via wired and wireless intranets or the Internet to client devices that may include voice-enabled client devices. The interface could also be in two different languages. The embodiments described below share the ability to monitor, reinterpret, and reformat data streams by means of a computer operating trainable user interface translator applications.

Abstract: A method of and system for capturing and associating supplemental data with user input data. The invention employs a client device, a server computer and a network. The client device includes an identification and/or location data source, an interface program, and a first communication program, and a modified first communication program or modified interface program designed to access and to transmit requested supplemental data. The server computer includes a second communication program, a content server logically interfacing with a supplemental data server, and a modified server program designed to request and to extract the supplemental data accessed and transmitted from the client device. The network is communicatively connected to the client device and to the server computer, and transmits requests for supplemental data and transmitted supplemental data.

Abstract: A method of and system for automatically handling and correcting business logic errors. The invention employs a trainable user interface computer and application, preferably in a network configuration with an interface computer, a training terminal, a shaper rule set storage device, a format data storage device, a client device, and a host computer, application and storage device. The methodology involves operating existing software applications with a trainable user interface translator system trained to automatically correct business logic errors.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for converting a first user interface used for existing applications running on a host computer to a second user interface for use on a client computer. The apparatus intercepts prompts and request for input from the host, converts them to a form appropriate for use on the client computer, and passes the converted prompts and requests to the client. The apparatus can store information for use at a later prompt or request, branch on the stored value to vary path execution, and handle errors generated by incorrect input.
