Abstract: The invention provides, in some aspects, methods of optimizing an app for execution on a client device by identifying components of the app used in such execution by a user having a designated role who accesses the app for download via a designated portal. A component can be, for example, a source code file or portion thereof, including, for example, a portion defining a widget or other user interface element. For each component, the method (i) identifies source code files on which execution of that component depends, e.g., in connection with execution of the particular app by the particular user, and (ii) generates a dependency-ordered stack of the source code files for that component. In further accord with those aspects of the invention, the method combines the dependency-ordered stacks into a single such stack and transfers the source code in an order specified by that stack to the client device for loading and execution.

Abstract: A system for integrating multiple resources in a service provider environment is provided. The system includes at least one original adapter, at least one receiving adapter, and a workflow engine for receiving a service request from the at least one original adapter and for sending instructions to one or more of the at least one receiving adapter to execute the service request. The system also includes at least one business rule in communication with the workflow engine that sequentially provides the instructions sent by the workflow engine to execute the service request.

Abstract: A computer program product for implementing an adapter includes program code for translating a service request conforming to a resource data model to a service request conforming to system data model and program code for sending a service request to a workflow engine.

Abstract: A method for processing a long running transaction for a service request includes receiving a service request at a workflow engine in communication with an original adapter and at least one receiving adapter wherein the original adapter generates the service request and the receiving adapter corresponds to a resource implementing a long running transaction in accordance with an instruction provided to the workflow engine by a business rule. The instruction is transmitted to the receiving adapter and an exception is received from receiving adapter. The exception is propagated to the business rule and to the original adapter. A notification indicating that the long running transaction is done is received from the receiving adapter, and the notification is propagated to the original adapter when all instructions provided by the business rule have been executed.
