Systems and methods for a design and runtime environment provide navigation maps using a declarative model defined by recording actual manipulation of a physical or virtual device. The systems and methods may be used to automatically navigate to application screens eliminating need for a test engineer to provide navigation code.

摘要:
A system and method is presented utilizing a set of software tools for the graphical definition of top-down workflow process models. Once defined, these models are completely useable enterprise applications that can be deployed in real-time without interrupting current business operations. The present invention has three main components: the process designer, the process server, and the process clients. The process designer allows users to define the business processes from the top down without programming. The process definitions are made up of components, such as tasks and subprocesses. Tasks are work items that are performed either by a human or automatically by an existing system. Tasks in the present invention incorporate all GUI panels necessary for an end-user to complete the task. Events link the process components together, defining control flow and providing a means for data flow through the process model. Process models also include roles, end-users, business logic, and other components that allow parallel processing, synchronization, and timing of services. Adapters allow business data and logic external to the present invention to be incorporated into the process model. The process model definitions are then installed on the process server, which presents the tasks to end-users. End-users access and perform tasks through the process clients.
摘要:
A method and system are described for maintaining the states of the instances of business processes. The method and the system use the definitions of the business processes to interpret the messages from the business activities, associate the messages with the expected and unexpected business activities in the known and unknown instances of the business processes.
摘要:
A method and system for improving the accuracy of the business forecast is introduced. The method is based on initializing the simulation by the actual state of the business process instances and using the historic data, adjusted by the deviations, as the simulation data feed. The computer system utilizing this method is proposed.
摘要:
A method and system are described for discovering business process definitions for a particular enterprise. A concept of Archetype is introduced where an archetype represents the industry-specific but enterprise-neutral set of process definition and recognition rules. The actual business processes of an enterprise are obtained by matching the archetypes to the artifacts collected from the enterprise.

A method and apparatus is presented for mapping legacy application data. The mapping process consists of trail recording, mapping, and template creation. In the trail recording phase, user interaction with the legacy application is recorded as a trail. Each trail consists of snapshots of every screen encountered, and all of the keystrokes entered by the user. After trail creation, maps of the legacy application are created by sorting the screen snapshots into screens. The sorting is done according to specific rules that are controlled by the end user. The default rules allocate snapshots according to the number, position, and location of the predefined fields found in the snapshots. Additional tags can be defined of alphanumeric text to help properly identify the screens. Templates are then created to allow direct access to the data found on the screens of the legacy application. Separate templates allow access to static fields and tabular fields. Methods are then defined to access particular data in the legacy application. One or more methods can then be defined as a service, which is compiled into a reusable software component.
