  • Patent number: 10802801
    Abstract: Computer processes are provided which can be executed without business or commercial context, independent of the kind of data or other content associated with the computer processes. In one embodiment, a computer process can be broken down into functional units, and the metadata associated with the functional units can be extracted. Each functional unit can then be represented by an interface and also coded with computer-readable instructions to use one or more configuration sets which have been defined by the metadata. The computer process can then be implemented by programming the functional units to execute based on a configuration set determined by predefined operating parameters.
