Abstract: A control computer implements a multi-stage process to automatically repair errors in a policy using selectable, pluggable repair modules. In the first stage, the control computer identifies the errors that caused the policies to fail the validation process, and associates the errors with corresponding repair modules. The repair modules comprise information that is needed to correct or repair the errors. In the second stage, the control computer generates commands for correcting the errors based on the information in the repair modules. In a third stage, the control computer applies the commands to the policies that failed the validation process to correct the errors.

Abstract: A wrapper builder application provides a variety of features for facilitating the creation of wrappers that are used to extract information from Web sites. In one aspect, the wrapper builder application provides a tool with which the process of creating a wrapper, which typically resembles coding, can be accomplished by a graphical design process involving drag and drop operations, clicking on objects, and filling in forms. A web viewer component provides a web browser frame, a source code frame, and a tree view frame, enabling the user to identify semistructured information of interest on Web sites. A wrapper editor component provides a graphical design environment in which a wrapper can be graphically constructed from operations and links. A wrapper model component provides a functioning internal representation of the graphically designed wrapper using Java objects and methods.
