  • Patent number: 8407663
    Abstract: The architecture provides development tools for the occasional developer to build a substantial portion of an application interface for accessing and interacting with actual data. The lack in knowledge of the occasional developer to complete the project is then supplemented by a development service provider such that experienced developers complete the interface and integrate the interface into the application environment so the occasional developer can use the application to access data for which the interface was developed. The architecture provides tools that are understandable for building in a guided way the framework and the user experience for the application, and then passes on the more complex pieces to IT because coding may be needed or a model should be generated that is scalable for a large number of users, for example. IT then completes the development process and integrates the final solution into the application environment.

  • Publication number: 20070214127
    Abstract: Extraction of data employing a sequence of remote function calls in form of a synchronous multi-batch call chain is provided. Sequencing of calls is enabled by generating parameters associated with the extraction of a next batch of data. The parameterized, dynamic generation of queries allows for optimization of memory utilization by batching result sets and data conversion. Each subsequent call retrieves a packet of data, picking up where the previous call left off without an overlap. Parameters are updated after each call based on extracted data, available memory, and the like.
