摘要:
Methods and systems are provided for automating a request for access to computer accessible resources. If access to a computer accessible resource is denied, an automated request for access may be forwarded to a provider of the resource without the need for the requestor to know the identity and/or address of the provider. If the provider grants access to the requestor, access may be automatically granted, or access may be granted along with a notification to the requestor of the granted access.

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for identifying relevant information to cache. A computer system accesses a marked data entity that has been marked for caching at a client computer system. The marked data entry is marked for caching based on the relevance of the marked data entity from the perspective of a requested data entity. The computer system identifies relationships from the marked data entity to one or more other data entities. The computer system selects, from among the identified relationships, any relationships that satisfy a relevance threshold from the perspective of the requested data entity. The computer system identifies, from among the one or more other data entities, any of the other data entities that correspond to a selected relationship satisfying the relevance threshold. The computer system marks the identified other data entities for caching.

Metadata is used to create customized user interface (UI) portions for an application. The metadata may be XML-based and can be interpreted and then rendered to implement a customized UI that also supports data binding between data and the UI controls. Once created, the metadata is processed by a rendering engine to display the UI controls. An interpreter may be used to interpret the metadata file before it is sent to the rendering engine. Neither the rendering engine nor the interpreter needs knowledge of the host application and provides support for arbitrary metadata driven UI. The metadata schema may include mechanisms to create custom controls for the UI; programmatically modify the UI controls by providing access to a code-behind assembly as well as support event handling for the UI controls.

Techniques to cross-synchronize data are described. An apparatus may comprise a cross-synchronization component to synchronize multiple data items for different application programs between multiple client devices synchronized using multiple synchronization circuits. The cross-synchronization component may determine whether changes to the multiple data items made at a first client device are propagated to a second client device using consistency information maintained by a consistency group item for a consistency group including the data items. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
Systems and methods for enabling a host application and uses thereof access to otherwise inaccessible information configured solely for use by other types of applications. The information may be exposed for use by the host application as information elements (e.g., metadata). During execution the host application may dynamically access these information elements using references specifying the information elements. These references may be used to retrieve pieces of information for display and/or modification by users. The content provided by the application may have an associated smart tag or uniform resource locater that specifies the reference. Further, for particular content, references may be generated from a structural abstraction representing the structure of the content. The structural abstraction may have one or more nodes corresponding to one or more respective sections of the content. A mapping table may be applied to map nodes of the structural abstraction to references that specify exposed information.
摘要:
Automation objects are implemented in a client-server model to control operations on one or more client machines from a single machine automation control module, such as a test program. The machine automation control module instantiates machine automation server objects in a server process. The control module can then instruct the server objects to instantiate corresponding machine automation client objects on specified client machines via a connection mechanism. Object-oriented automation classes are provided in a library and may be extended to meet customized requirements of a given testing procedure. Examples of automation objects may include, without limitation, application objects, machine image objects, snapshot objects, file and registry access objects, reboot objects, autologon objects, and command execution objects. Automation objects allow the re-establishment of remote control after the loss of control resulting from a reboot, a relogon, or a disk image restoration, for example. Automation objects may also be used to automate the deployment of software throughout an enterprise.
