Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for generating runtime components in various hardware and software computer systems. More specifically, certain embodiments of the present invention describe a design-time interface by which applications may be designed, generated, and deployed in accordance within the underlying source systems of a computer system. Components may be selected, customized, and linked together to form a functional end-to-end application based on a multitude of underlying technologies within a system. Upon completion of the application design, application metadata and/or runtime components may be generated and deployed within the computer system. During execution, such the runtime components deployed within the system may collaborate to receive and process event streams from various event sources, analyze incoming data, and generate logical transaction objects, alerts, and other responses using various source systems.

Abstract: Techniques for reusing logic implemented in an existing software application such that the logic can be exposed as a Web service or in any other service-oriented context. In one set of embodiments, a design-time technique is provided that comprises, inter alia, receiving program code for an existing software application, generating metadata based on the program code, and customizing the metadata to align with an intended Web service. Artifacts for the Web service are then generated based on the customized metadata. In another set of embodiments, a run-time technique is provided that comprises, inter alia, receiving a payload representing an invocation of a Web service operation of the generated Web service, processing the payload, and, based on the processing, causing the existing software application to execute an operation in response to the invocation of the Web service operation.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide techniques for generating ontologies. In one embodiment, techniques are provided for automatically generating an ontology based upon input information. The input information may, for example, be in the form of XSD, XML, WSDL, or WSRP, etc. The automatically generated ontology may be encoded in OWL or other RDF-compliant language. A set of inference rules may also be automatically generated using the input information. The automatically generated ontology and the set of inference rules may be stored in a database for further processing.

Abstract: Techniques for simplifying querying of ontologies. In one embodiment, one or more queries for querying an ontology are automatically generated in a language suitable for querying the ontology. A user may enter a query in a simple language such as a natural language query. In response, one or more queries capable of querying the ontology are automatically generated in a second language. The automatically generated queries may, for example, be in SPARQL or PL/SQL. The one or more automatically generated queries may then be used to query one or more ontologies.
