Abstract: A system can use metadata and metadata mappings to track changes between business requirements, architectural design and implementation.

Abstract: A stream of data can be estimated by a model to produce an estimated equation. The estimated equation can be used to calibrate a response to a SQL type join query.

Abstract: The invention enables the use of TCP protocol for reliable transport of data over a wireless network, resolving the problems associated with frequent packet loss. Additional benefits include delivery of significant performance improvement, bandwidth saving and backward compatibility compared to the wire-line TCP protocol, and contribution to power savings in wireless handsets and devices. To make the retransmission process more granular, transport layer segments are subdivided into sub-segments. The invention utilizes a split TCP based approach and produces a series of smaller-sized segments that share the same transport layer header. A NACK-based message exchange, a new header format and a special windowing protocol are used to achieve reliability, flow-control, and efficient buffer handling.

Abstract: In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, there are provided mechanisms and methods for sharing data across services. These mechanisms and methods for applications to share information even when the applications use different data formats make it possible for business services to operate without any disruption even if the input data stream produced by it's peer business service has been changed.

Abstract: A business platform can provide access to applications and provide for the integration of resources with other applications, including internal and external applications, services and systems. A portal framework included within the platform can render portals including graphical user interfaces for displaying and receiving content that can be used by various applications. A portal framework can provide an interface to various resources such that information received and displayed by the portal framework can be exchanged with internal and external resources using standards-based transport protocols, messaging systems, and document types. An integration framework can be invoked to exchange this information among applications and services. An integration framework can provide access to resources by integrating the resources with an application server. The portal framework and integration framework can be implemented on an application server which can support enterprise applications.
