Abstract: Method and system for capturing device-independent user interface structure in a model based software system are disclosed. In one embodiment, at least one entry point is received from a user by a business system. Further, a user interface corresponding to the at least one entry point is provided. Furthermore, user interface meta-data associated with the user interface is captured. Also, at least one event associated with user interface elements is identified as a response to user actions based on the captured user interface meta-data. In addition, a pattern signature is identified in the model based software system for reuse in one or more model based software systems based on an expected behavior of the user interface when the identified at least one event occurs. Then, the identified at least one event is mapped to the identified pattern signature.

Abstract: User interfaces and software reuse in model based software systems is disclosed. In one embodiment, user interface data is captured from business documents. Further, user interface elements are mapped to the business documents. A data model is formed for the business documents. A set of business rules for each business component in the data model is provided. A sequence of business rules associated with each action in the data model is scanned. In addition, a first pattern signature associated with an action that uniquely identifies each of the sequence of business rules is formed. It is determined if the first pattern signature is present in other actions in the data model. If so, the first pattern signature is included in a set of pattern signatures of the data model, else step of determining for a second pattern signature that is a subset of the first pattern signature is repeated.

Abstract: In a model based software system, a set of business rules is scanned, and patterns are identified. The patterns are then compared, and similarities identified which indicate that software can be reused in the system. In one embodiment, identifiers of the rules are scanned. In another embodiment, usage patterns are used for designing a middle layer and generating code. In another embodiment of the invention, a data model is generated by capturing data from a user interface for a business document.
