Abstract: Mechanisms are disclosed for modelling and quantitatively characterizing emissions inflows and outflows. Scoping inputs are received including a physical process defined scope of emission-producing physical inputs. Modeling inputs are received, including footprints associated with physical manufacturing inputs. The model energy flows may be provided via a graphical modeling user interface and support allocation rule definitions for distributing emissions footprint definitions. An estimated emission flow is calculated based on combined energy flows. The material flows may be derived from aggregated transaction data associated with emission-producing physical inputs. The calculated emission flow may be based on a calculated emission footprint at stages along a production process. Analytics user interfaces associated with the calculated emissions flows may provide insight into the highest emission producing emission drivers along the production chain in connection with a technical report.

Abstract: A method for internationalization of a computer application being designed and developed as cloud application in a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) environment includes disposing a translatable texts table in a data layer of the computer application as a common source of translatable texts for all layers of the computer application. The method further includes disposing a text string translation service in a logic layer of the computer application. to expose the translatable texts table disposed in the data layer to a presentation layer of the computer application.

Abstract: Techniques are described for providing a non-blocking application object framework allowing parallelization of operation and function calls throughout an application executing within the framework. In one example, a dependency model associated with an application in a non-blocking application object framework is identified, where the application is associated with a plurality of operations and the dependency model defines at least one dependency between at least two of the operations. At runtime of the non-blocking application object framework, the identified dependency model is interpreted. An optimized execution plan of the application is automatically generated in the non-blocking application object framework based on the interpreted dependency model, wherein at least a first portion of the operations of the application are optimized in a sequential execution order based on dependencies defined in the dependency model.

Abstract: A system and method for using a clipboard that enables mass operations that identifies a plurality of objects, at least two of the plurality of objects originating from different applications, stores the plurality of objects within a single storage location, executes a function on each of the plurality of objects to produce a plurality of processed objects, the processed objects being accessible from the storage location and respective originating applications, and graphically renders the processed objects.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for implementing a cooperative model between an application and a database. In one aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method. The method may include receiving from an application a command to perform an operation at a database; accessing metadata representative of the application; configuring, based on at least the metadata, a result of the operation; and sending the configured result to shared memory accessible by the application. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.
