摘要： A computer-implemented method and program product for validating updated business rules. A first set of documents utilized to validate a first set of business rules is provided. A second set of business rules generated from an update of the first set of business rules is received. Each business rule includes input parameters. A second set of documents is received. A template file includes the input parameters and corresponding path expressions. An augmented set of documents includes the first and second sets of documents. The second set of business rules is automatically semantically validated against the augmented set of documents. The semantic validation includes executing the second set of business rules with each document of the augmented set. The executing includes binding, via the path expressions, the input parameters to values included in a document of the augmented set.

摘要： A method for specifying, deploying and updating work flows. A work flow comprising manual and automatic steps is created in a computing system A first XML schema set represents the automatic steps. The XML schemas in the first XML schema set identify software routines for performing the automatic steps. A second XML schema set represents the manual steps. The XML schemas in the second XML schema set include instructions directing human representatives to perform the manual steps. A runtime component executes the first and second XML schema sets. Without terminating the runtime component, a manual step is represented in an XML schema to be added to the first set. Representing the manual step includes transforming the manual step into an automatic step represented in the XML schema and adding to the XML schema a class name and method name identifying a software routine that performs the automatic step.

摘要： A system and method for defining and dynamically invoking polymorphic call flows in a call flow system. Call flows are defined that include a publisher call flow and subscriber call flows. A first trigger point in a publisher call flow is defined. Triggers specifying late-binding references to trigger points are defined in the subscriber call flows. Subsequent to the call flows being published in a repository, the publisher call flow is executed, the first trigger point is located, and the publisher call flow is executed. Without changing any other call flow and without terminating and restarting the publisher call flow, a call flow is added to the call flow system and invoked or a call flow is removed.

摘要： Systems and methods for adapting an existing call flow wherein the call flow further comprises an associated data set, comprising: activating the existing call flow, the existing call flow generating a series of questions designed to obtain information from a caller; determining if an exception condition has occurred; allowing a user to activate an exception call flow in response to the exception condition; retaining the data set associated with the call flow when the exception condition occurred; adapting the data set such that the call flow addresses the exception condition; analyzing the adapted data set to determine if it is unique; and, modifying the existing call flow to incorporate the adapted data set if the adapted data set is unique.

摘要： A method for defining and dynamically invoking polymorphic call flows in a call flow system. A publisher call flow and subscriber call flows are defined. A first trigger point in the publisher call flow is defined. Triggers specifying late-binding references to trigger points are defined in the subscriber call flows. A second trigger point in a first subscriber call flow is defined. A trigger specifying a late-binding reference to the second trigger point is defined. Publishing the call flows includes storing a second subscriber call flow's representation that includes a first trigger's representation. To execute the publisher call flow, identifiers of the publisher call flow and the first trigger point are located in the first trigger's representation. Without changing any other call flow and without terminating and restarting the publisher call flow, a call flow is added to the call flow system and invoked.

摘要： A method and system for synchronization-replication concurrency maintain a history table for a data table in a mirror, where the history table can include redundant version values that indicate a period in which data values corresponding to the version values are valid. Replication can thus be performed between a source and a mirror for a current version of the data table, while synchronization is simultaneously performed between the mirror and a client for an earlier version of the data table using the history table.

摘要翻译： 用于同步复制并发的方法和系统维护镜像中的数据表的历史表，其中历史表可以包括指示对应于版本值的数据值有效的周期的冗余版本值。 因此，可以在数据表的当前版本的源和镜像之间执行复制，同时使用历史表在镜像和客户端之间同时执行数据表的早期版本的同步。
