摘要： A method and apparatus for representing host datastream screen image information using markup languages is provided. A distributed data processing system contains a network, at least one host computer, at least one client computer, and optionally at least one server. The host computer generates a host datastream containing host screen image information and forwards the host datastream to a client. If the client is not directly connected to the host, then the host datastream may be routed to the client. The host datastream is converted to a markup language tagged datastream at some point within the network according to a Document Type Definition (DTD) authored for the purpose of representing information in host datastreams. The client receives the markup language tagged datastream containing the host screen image information derived from the host datastream and parses the markup language tagged datastream to identify the host screen image information. The host screen image information is displayed on a display device connected to the client, enabling the client to act as an emulator for the host.

摘要： A method, system, and computer program product for efficient processing of Extensible Markup Language (XML) documents in Content Based Routing (“CBR”) networks. Specifically, the method involves converting existing XML documents to a machine-oriented notation (“mXML”) which is significantly more compact than XML, while still conveying the content and semantics of the data and the structure of the document. Documents are converted from XML to mXML upon entering a CBR subnetwork and/or upon receipt by an mXML-capable device. The documents are then processed in mXML format. Devices within the inventive system are provided with an awareness of whether target devices or processes are mXML-capable. Documents being routed to a target which is mXML-capable are passed in mXML format while documents being routed to a target which is not mXML-capable are converted to XML before they are passed.

摘要： A method and apparatus in a data processing system for converting documents. Source elements and corresponding target elements are identified. An initial target document derived from a source document is presented using the source elements and corresponding target elements. User input is received modifying presentation of the initial target document to form a final target document. Differences between the initial target document and the final target document are identified. A stylesheet is created to convert source documents into target documents using the identified source elements and corresponding target elements and the identified differences between the initial target document and the final target document.

摘要： The present invention provides a method, system, and computer program product for caching objects to improve performance and resource utilization of software applications which interact with a back-end data source, such as a legacy host application and/or legacy host data store or database. Read-only requests for information are satisfied from the cache, avoiding the overhead of a network round-trip and the computing overhead of repeating an interaction with the back-end data source. Refreshes of cached objects and update requests to objects may be queued for delayed processing (for example, at a time when the system is lightly loaded), thereby improving system resource utilization. A sequence of actions that may be required to initiate, and interact with, the refresh and update processes is also preferably stored in the cached objects. This technique is applicant-independent, and may therefore be used for objects having an arbitrary format.

摘要： Methods, systems, and computer program products for automatically transforming data or business messages to enable communication between parties in a distributed computing environment (e.g. between business partners who exchange data over a public network, and who do not necessarily use the same data formats), where this data transformation preferably occurs at the edge of the computing network. A set of transformation services is described, and include template registration, transformation, forward, and receive services. Services from this set may optionally be combined to create composite transformation services. A template defines how to transform one data format into another. Selection criteria may be provided to enable dynamically selecting a template at run-time. Using these services, one business partner simply hands its data off into the network to a network-accessible transformation service, where the data is automatically transformed into a format usable by its business partner and forwarded to that business partner.

摘要： A method, system, and computer program product for automatically synchronizing data between a replicated version and a back-end data store version which may or may not have the same format. Queues are used for scheduling refreshes of read-access objects and updates of write-access objects, where the actual processing will occur when the client device connects to the back-end data source. This technique is application-independent, and does not require writing application-specific code to perform a synchronization between data stores having dissimilar storage formats. This technique is particularly advantageous for mobile computing devices, which may operate primarily in a disconnected mode, and for distributed branch-office computing environments where a local server has a replicated copy of data stored at a back-end enterprise system. This technique is also advantageous where the back-end data source uses legacy host application or database storage formats, and where the client software uses modem object-oriented data storage formats. A technique is defined for offloading the processing to a remote machine.

摘要： A method and apparatus for navigating screens in a legacy host system. In a preferred embodiment, requests for specific legacy host screens are received by a server. The server then navigates to the appropriate screen within the legacy host system and retrieves the host screen. Any intermediate screens navigated by the server in reaching the host screen are not displayed to the user. If variable data need be entered to access the host screen, the server sends the user a submittable form on which to enter the appropriate information, which, once entered and sent to the server, is used by the server to retrieve the host screen. Once the host screen has been retrieved, the server formats it into a web page format using a hypertext language and sends the screen to the user. Other screens within the legacy host system are accessed by user selection of selectable links displayed to the user.
