摘要:
Managing diagram elements in a drawing becomes more challenging as the number of diagram elements increases. Placing a new diagram element in a drawing often requires manual movement of one or more other diagram elements within the drawing. Functionality can be implemented within a drawing application to automatically manage diagram elements in a drawing by applying layouts to sets of diagram elements. A drawing tool can associate a set of diagram elements and assigns them a exclusive area or region in the drawing space. Since a layout occupies an exclusive area, the drawing tool can manage the drawing space by automatically moving elements within a first layout when overlap with a second layout is detected. Managing drawing spaces with layouts reduces time spent adjusting diagram elements as a result of applying operations to other elements.

Users of drawing applications can utilize patterns to efficiently create diagrams as users tend to create similar drawings over time. For example, a user may create two use case diagrams. The first use case diagram depicts use cases for driving a car and the second use case diagram depicts use cases for driving a motorcycle. The use cases and structure of the diagrams are similar. Functionality may be implemented within a drawing application to determine a pattern from a drawing and create a new drawing based on the pattern. Creating a new drawing based on a pattern reduces time spent creating similar drawings because a user is able to edit the new pattern based drawing instead of creating the new drawing from scratch.

Embodiments of the invention are associated with a configuration comprising multiple integrated SOA governance components, and are generally concerned with monitoring and managing events that can or are likely to impact on different components of the configuration. One embodiment of the invention, directed to a method, comprises the steps of detecting a particular event that occurs at a particular SOA governance component of the configuration, and routing information pertaining to the detected event to a pre-specified storage location. The method further comprises operating a monitoring mechanism to selectively monitor the information routed to the location, and to determine from the monitored information that the particular event has occurred at the particular component of the configuration. Responsive to determining that the particular event has occurred at the particular component, the monitoring mechanism is further operated to query each of the remaining SOA governance components, in order to identify each of the remaining components in which the particular event does not exist.

A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer usable program code for managing reactive business processes. In one embodiment, the computer implemented method provides for modeling a set of business processes as pre-defined events in a software process application, wherein the software process application is located on a data processing system. A set of performance indicators are associated to the set of business processes. A set of reactive business processes are modeled, wherein the set of reactive business processes are pre-defined templates included in the software process application. The set of reactive business processes are mapped to the set of performance indicators. The set of performance indicators are monitored and responsive to a trigger from the set of performance indicators, a reactive business process is initiated.

Manually changing properties of each diagram element placed in a drawing becomes tedious. A significant amount of time is spent manually customizing diagram elements creating or editing a drawing. Functionality can be implemented within a drawing application to allow automatic diagram element customization based on a set of diagram element policies. Diagram policies specify conditions for customizing properties of a diagram element. Automatic customization of diagram elements reduces time spent creating drawings because diagram elements will be placed in a drawing in their desired configurations.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to establishing a governance procedure for a selected service oriented architecture. One embodiment of the invention, directed to a method, comprises the steps of furnishing one or more first governance tasks, and furnishing one or more second governance tasks. The method further comprises providing a user of the governance procedure with a template, wherein the template is configured for operation by the user to selectively modify at least one of the first governance tasks. The template is configured further to be incapable of modifying any of the second governance tasks, when the template is being operated by the user. Each modified first governance task is combined with each of the second governance tasks, and also with each unmodified first governance task, to provide the governance procedure.
摘要:
Projects often involve multiple teams of developers in different locations. The different teams make updates to a central or shared database(s) that can store information about the project, such as progress. Each team or even different members of the different teams can check out instances of a representation of a model for the project. The different teams/members can independently modify their instance with data specific to that member and/or team. Database operations embedded in the individual instances are then executed on the database(s) to persist the data from their individual instances to the database(s). Database mechanisms can handle locking and/or conflicts that may arise from performance of the database operations. A manager can then request a report from the database(s), and the report with data from the different members and/or teams can be generated from the database(s).

Leveraging profiles to define stereotypes for other profiles introduces efficiency into modeling. Although constraints can be inherited, constraints cannot currently be aggregated across profiles. Aggregating constraints across profiles leverages the labor invested in defining other profiles as well as adding flexibility to defining stereotypes.
