Abstract: According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a method and technique for converged dialog in hybrid mobile applications is disclosed. The method includes: responsive to receiving a short message service (SMS) request from an SMS device, determining a data policy corresponding to the request; initiating an SMS communication dialog with the SMS device to collect data corresponding to the data policy; determining whether the data policy indicates a need for a dialog with a hybrid device; and responsive to determining that the data policy indicates a need for a dialog with a hybrid device, initiating a non-SMS communication dialog with a hybrid device corresponding to the collected data.

Abstract: According to one aspect of the present disclosure a system and technique for converged dialog in hybrid mobile applications is disclosed. The system includes: a processor and a hybrid communications manager executable by the processor. The hybrid communications manager is operable to: responsive to receiving a short message service (SMS) request from an SMS device, determine a data policy corresponding to the request; initiate an SMS communication dialog with the SMS device to collect data corresponding to the data policy; determine whether the data policy indicates a need for a dialog with a hybrid device; and responsive to determining that the data policy indicates a need for a dialog with a hybrid device, initiate a non-SMS communication dialog with a hybrid device corresponding to the collected data.

Abstract: A user interface service composer determines, based on a user interface request from a user interface consumer, one of a plurality of user interface service providers to be invoked; and consults a particular entry (corresponding to the service provider to be invoked) in a user interface data catalog having a plurality of entries for the plurality of user interface service providers. A request message, for rendering a user interface requested in the user interface request received from the user interface consumer, is routed from the user interface service composer to the given one of the plurality of user interface service providers that is to be invoked. The request message includes configuration parameters and interaction-related data, and is formatted in accordance with the particular entry in the user interface data catalog.

Abstract: A mechanism provides a model-driven solution template-based approach for managed business services. Key assets of the business services are templatized and made configurable. The mechanism implements a metamodel describing standard service offerings that can be configured to meet specific business and operational requirements at a level of business process and system components. A cost and pricing model of service offerings helps assess the service costs and resource requirements based on a client's selection of standard and customized processes and system components. A supporting system solution is developed based upon underlying solution templates and solution artifacts as well as client-specific requirements.
