摘要:
A method, system, and computer-readable code for a technique with which documents encoded according to the Extensible Markup Language (XML) notation or a derivative thereof can be more efficiently processed by selectively streaming document fragments. This selective streaming technique comprises identifying the static and the changeable portions or fragments of a document. The static fragments are written to a serialized binary format (i.e. a serialized binary stream), such as a disk file, thereby avoiding the re-parsing of this information when reconstituting a Document Object Model (DOM) tree for the document. Volatile fragments, on the other hand, remain in the XML or derivative notation when written to an output file.

A system and method is provided to selectively exclude elements from a user interface window depending upon the type of device upon which the interface is being displayed. A designer (or a user) decides which elements in a window should be excluded when operating a certain type of device. It is likely that some user interface elements will not be deemed critical enough to provide when the user is using a constrained device, such as mobile telephones and personal digital assistants (PDAs). An element can be an image, an audio file, a table, a column in a table, a page in a property notebook, a wizard (or page in a wizard), or a group of related items. The judgment to exclude an element is based upon the value of the piece of data (element) in comparison to the visual bandwidth (display space) and/or network bandwidth needed to provide the element.

Content from multiple remote/legacy consoles is aggregated within a central console to provide a single point-of-access for managing remote resources. Preferred embodiments deploy the central console as a network-accessible application, and this console application communicates with remotely-located console applications (and/or other locally-executing functions) that carry out tasks selected from the central console by an administrator and then return content generated by those tasks for rendering in the central console. The run-time environment used at the central console is not required to match the run-time environment of the remote/legacy consoles.

Content aggregation is used to build administration consoles. Preferred embodiments enable providing a solution-based approach to information technology (“IT”) administration, whereby content can be flexibly arranged to provide a content view that is adapted for the IT solution deployed in a particular IT environment. In preferred embodiments, portal technology is used for the aggregation framework, and portlets are used for creating content. Alternatively, other approaches such as struts and tiles may be used. Preferred embodiments deploy an administration console as a Web-accessible application, and this console consolidates the administration interfaces for an arbitrary set of management operations, including administration of an arbitrary collection of hardware and/or software resources. Roles/permissions may be used when rendering content for the console, thereby customizing a view to individual end users (or user groups).
摘要:
A system and method is provided to display a common display page on a variety of display devices using the item's tab order property to determine the display order. Controls that are displayed on a display device typically have a tab order. When a window that has controls is displayed, the cursor is typically placed at the control with the lowest (i.e., first) tab order. When the user presses the tab key, the cursor moves to the control corresponding to the next lowest tab order. This allows the designer to design a single window (or panel) that is displayed differently on constrained devices. However, even though the window is displayed differently, using tab order mapping maintains a consistent visible proximity between controls despite the type of display device being used by the user.

A system and method is provided to map alternative short captions that are displayed in a constrained display environment instead of displaying standard captions. When designing a display panel, the designer identifies shorter captions to use in a constrained environment. Shorter captions are helpful in preventing text from wrapping or having to horizontally scroll to in order to read a longer caption. Varying levels of short captions are provided so that a standard size display displays the full caption, a somewhat smaller size display displays smaller captions, while an even smaller display displays even smaller captions. National language support is also provide to translate both full captions as well as the short version(s) of the captions.
摘要:
A method, system and apparatus for enabling complex table navigation in a highly constrained device. The method can include reducing a complex table defined in markup to a row range view, a set of row views and a set of record views. Individual ones of the record views can be navigably linked to selected ones of the row views, and individual ones of the row views can be further navigably linked to selected row ranges disposed in the row range view. Finally, the row range view can be presented responsive to a request to render the complex table in the highly constrained device.
