Methods, systems, and computer program products for cache conflict detection are provided. A computer-implemented method may include providing a partial graph of data to an application executing on a mobile device where the partial graph is derived from a document comprising a graph of data having a plurality of nodes, receiving a modified partial graph from the application where the modified partial graph includes one or more changes to the partial graph, and determining a document version used to derive the partial graph is no longer a most recent version of the document.

Cache conflict detection

Methods, systems, and computer program products for synchronizing data between a mobile application and an enterprise data source are provided. A computer-implemented method may include receiving a request for data from an application executing on a mobile device, receiving a document including the requested data from a data source where the document represents a graph of data having a plurality of nodes, and providing a partial graph of data to the application where the partial graph is derived from the received document and at least includes the requested data.

Composite graph cache management

Systems, methods, computer program product embodiments and combinations and sub-combinations thereof for data caching and cache synchronization are described herein. An embodiment includes comparing data in a cache with data stored at a data source and determining database operations needed to synchronize one or more partitions of the cache with the data source. Each cache partition is associated with mobile business object (MBO) metadata of a distinct mobile device and the determined database operations are executed to synchronize the partitions with the data source. By refreshing only those partitions which are pertinent to a given device, embodiments of the invention may increase parallelism by allowing multiple partitions to refresh concurrently. The embodiment further comprises reviewing a caching policy associated with the cache. The caching policy may be selected in a manner that reduces data traffic and redundant requests on the data source.

Data caching for mobile applications

A Boolean Network rule engine for evaluation of rules is described that comprises: a rules interface for receiving a set of rules, each rule having at least one condition; a network builder for building a Boolean Network representation of the set of rules including transducers linked by logic gates, each transducer generating a Boolean value based on evaluating an item of input data against a condition of a rule; and a runtime evaluation engine for receiving input data, detecting changed items of input data, activating links among transducers and logic gates of the Boolean Network representation based on the changed items of input data so as to utilize transducers and logic gates of the Boolean Network representation relevant to rule evaluation outcome, evaluating rules based on the input data and active transducers and logic gates and returning results of rule evaluation.
