  • Patent number: 11487416
    Abstract: A method and system are provided. The method includes providing an actionable business entity operating model. The method further includes extending the actionable business entity operating model to drive user interface behavior on a user interface device having at least a display device, by extending class and property meta classes of the actionable business entity operating model to include user interface behavior semantics. The extending step includes configuring the user interface behavior semantics to be responsive to an operation state of the actionable business entity operating model.

  • Patent number: 9639675
    Abstract: Removing high level logic structure from a source program. Two or more source program fields are characterized by their respective value characteristics. A first field is mapped, with respect to the source program, to a second field having similar value characteristics as the first field. A target program is then created by replacing, in the source program, the first field with the second field and replacing each first field value with a corresponding second field value thereby preserving the value characteristics of the source program.

  • Patent number: 9626492
    Abstract: Obfuscating denotational logic in a source program. A non-rule-based object oriented source program is received. The source program is transformed into a rule-based source program that includes an object model and a ruleset. Attribute domains of the rule-based source program are characterized by a structure of their values in which the structure of the values is nominal, ordered, interval, or ratio. A minimum cardinality is calculated for each domain attribute. First domain attributes are randomly mapped to second domain attributes, each second domain attribute having the same value structure and a same or higher cardinality as the corresponding first domain attribute. For each randomly mapped pair a domain range of the first domain attribute is mapped to a domain range of the second domain attribute. In the rule-based source program first domain input fields and values are replaced with the respective second domain input fields and values.

  • Publication number: 20150006154
    Abstract: Provided are techniques for the manipulation of semantic objects within a semantic store, including a semantic reasoning apparatus comprising a processor; a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium; a semantic store comprising a plurality of semantic objects; a semantic model; a rule, comprising a condition part and an action part; wherein the rule is based upon the semantic model and configured to execute the action part in response to a determination that the condition part is satisfied by one or more objects of the plurality of semantic objects and a semantic driver that employs the semantic model as input for driving behavior, comprising logic for determining that the condition part is satisfied by the one or more objects of the plurality of objects; and modifying a semantic object of the plurality of semantic objects in conformity to the action part in response to the determining that the condition part is satisfied.
