    摘要: A services provision system provides information services over one or more communications networks and has a software infrastructure divided into domains. Each domain has an intelligent software agent and this community of agents sits in a computing environment represented in each domain by a DPE kernel. The community of agents co-operates to provide service and service management functionality to user. At least one of the agents is reconfigurable to change the functionality the system makes available. Reconfigurability is based on the use of a plurality of reusable software modules, the agent reconfiguring by selecting a new combination of modules. The software modules themselves incorporate rules, or policies, which determine process steps offered by the modules at run-time. These policies are external to the modules and may be loaded at run-time, allowing dynamic modification to functionality of the system. The system as a whole offers functionality associated with using services, providing them and managing them and the reconfigurability allows it to offer the different types of functionality in an efficient way. It also allows access control to functionality at different levels with particularly good security against fraudulent use.

    摘要: An apparatus for storing data for use in displaying diagrams comprises a computer and a file server. Each diagram includes boxes and flow lines connecting the boxes. The software includes a database and a main program which is responsible for storing and retrieving diagram data as well as performing predetermined operations on the data. In the database, data describing a box is stored as an instance of a first software object class, data describing a flow line is stored as an instance of a second software object class, general data relating to a diagram is stored as an instance of a third software object class, and data describing the location of each entity (box or flow line) on a diagram is stored as an instance of a fourth software object class. Each instance of the fourth software object class includes a pointer to the instance of the third software object class which contains general data for the diagram and also to a pointer to the instance of the first or second software object class which describe the entity.
