  • Patent number: 8234649
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for enabling communication between a composite system providing additional functionality not contained in existing legacy systems and other existing systems using different commands, variables, protocols, methods, or instructions, when data may be located on more than one system. In an embodiment, multiple software layers are used to independently manage different aspects of an application. A business logic layer may be used in an embodiment to facilitate reading/writing operations on data that may be stored locally and/or on external systems using different commands, variables, protocols, methods, or instructions. A backend abstraction layer may be used in an embodiment in conjunction with the business logic layer to facilitate communication with the external systems. A user interface layer may be used in an embodiment to manage a user interface, a portal layer to manage a user context, and a process logic layer to manage a workflow.

  • Publication number: 20110125667
    Abstract: A modified design utility for business process provides patterns. Patterns are a more efficient manner in which a technical or non-technical user of the design utility can define a business process to create a business application. Patterns are groupings of business elements that are commonly utilized in many business processes. Selection of a pattern in the design utility can generate suggestions for additional patterns or business elements to complete the overall business process based on known commonalities where the suggestions are constrained based on the types of undefined business element associations for the pattern.
