Abstract: A system and method that include receiving sensor data acquired during execution of a drilling operation workflow and generating state information of a wellsite system and receiving contextual information for a role associated with a workflow that includes one or more tasks of the workflow. The system and method also include generating a natural language report based at least in part on the state information and based at least in part on the contextual information to facilitate planning and execution of the one or more tasks of the workflow. The system and method further include transmitting the natural language report via a network interface based at least in part on an identifier associated with the role and presenting a graphical user interface that renders information as to the planning and execution of the one or more tasks of the workflow to achieve a desired state of the wellsite system.

Abstract: Techniques for propagating product information from a central database to one or more remote systems using disparate formats and protocols. In an embodiment, the central database is polled at predetermined intervals to determine whether a change has been made to information pertaining to a product. If a change is identified, a data management server extracts, formats, and transmits the changed data from the central database to an appropriate remote system. An application adapter communicatively coupled with the remote system receives the changed data from the data management server and formats the changed data according to the remote system platform.

Abstract: A method and device such as a database for storing and providing controlled access to objects and associated documents by multiple users according to predetermined privileges set by the owner, or host, of the stored information. Individual users, or guests, can be given access to the objects, its attributes and associated documents as determined by the host of the information. The host of the information can set up access privileges based on any type of relationship. This is particularly useful in complex business relationships between a host and a plurality of users, both of which may be sensitive about their trade secrets and other confidential information.

Abstract: A method and system for modeling and developing software applications. Modeling and developing a programmatic interface includes defining an application framework with property, behavior and event elements, creating enabling services and system entities each including at least one element, listing the enabling services and system entities themselves as elements, providing a user interface that enables a user to define business entities, include such entities among the elements, and define relationships among entities created by the user and the elements, and generating a software application that provides the programmatic interface.

Abstract: A data management system is provided that is designed to automatically propagate changes in information related to a product being designed or manufactured. The product information may be stored in a central location such as a central data base. According to the invention, product information may be transferred to remote locations to systems having disparate formats and protocols. The product information may be configured into a standard format within the central data base and transferred to remote and disparate user locations for use in user's engineering and manufacturing information systems. The invention may further include an administration module communicating with the central database and configured to validate product data stored in the data base. This would ensure that the centrally stored data is accessible by the system.

Abstract: A system for and method of searching for data in a multi-level hierarchical database coupled with a search engine is disclosed. The invention allows not only direct where-used searches in a multi-level hierarchical database for modified objects in a hierarchical database, but also indirect where-used searches for a target object or objects that are modified directly by a user or that are modified indirectly due to modifications of an object and objects with a higher hierarchy than the target object or objects.

Abstract: A data management system propagates changes in product information. The product information is stored in a central data base for transfer to remote systems having disparate formats and protocols. The system includes an administration module to validate product data stored in the data base. This ensures that the data is accessible by the system. The system also includes a product change module configured to determine whether a change has been made to data related to a product. When changes are discovered, a data management server is alerted to the change. In response to the alert, the data server extracts, formats and transmits the changes in product data from the central data base to an appropriate user system. An application adapter communicating with the user system then receives the changed data from the data server and formats the data according to the user system platform.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for facilitating improved communication between a browser and a cluster of multi threaded process instances to perform services, such as accessing a database. The process instances are configured to communicate with other process instances in the cluster, and to communicate with and retrieve state information of particular instances from a central location. A cluster monitoring instance is also provided to separately monitor the operating states of a process instance and to enable operations that pertain to the state of these instances. A process monitoring instance may be configured to determine whether a process instance has terminated a session detected by the session monitoring instance. A rerouting instance may also be provided that is configured to recover browser session information in the event of a premature end of a session.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a system and a method for where-used searches in a hierarchical database. Unlike database systems in prior art, the invention allows fast, efficient and convenient where-used search for data with multiple revisions in a multi-level hierarchical database.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for facilitating secure communication between a web browser and an application server. An application server is able to actively send out requests to webservers to connect approved browsers for service sessions between the browsers and application servers. This is in contrast to passive operations of conventional application servers that allow browsers to actively access application servers for screening, leaving the application servers and other associated entities vulnerable to possible computer hackers. This is accomplished via a plurality of intermediate webservers that screen and route browser requests destined for particular application servers. The webservers are configured to communicate amongst each other to share status information related to communication sessions between browsers and application servers.
