Abstract: A method and system for handling requests from a user and rendering a resulting page in HTML useful in effectuating aspects of an order management system, which reduces the redundancy in the underlying code required to effectuate the HTML page. An embodiment of the present invention modularizes various parts of an HTML page, effectuating the re-use of certain portions of code, advantageously reducing redundancy. In one embodiment, the present invention associates each HTML page with a form mapped to a servlet in a system backend. The servlet performs appropriate action based on corresponding user action. Each user action calls a set of re-usable helper class methods. Upon completion of processing, the servlet calls a render method. The active render method internally calls re-usable render methods in helper classes. These populate NTV data used by a JSP to generate a new HTML page accordingly.

Abstract: A job optimizer dynamically changes the allocation of processing units on a multi-nodal computer system. A distributed application is organized as a set of connected processing units. The arrangement of the processing units is dynamically changed at run time to optimize system resources and interprocess communication. A collector collects application specific metrics determined by application plug-ins. A job optimizer analyzes the collected metrics and determines how to dynamically arrange the processing units within the jobs. The job optimizer may determine to combine multiple processing units into a job on a single node when there is an overutilization of an interprocess communication between processing units. Alternatively, the job optimizer may determine to split a job's processing units into multiple jobs on different nodes where one or more of the processing units are over utilizing the resources on the node.

Abstract: A data management system that protects data into a continuous object store includes a management interface having a time control.
