A method and apparatus is provided to generate a plural number of differing data displays, each based upon a multi-information display template that has the information to drive each separate data display. Each data display may be different as regards selected information to appear on each data display, selected placement of the information on each data display depending upon a selected and defined style, an at least one selected and defined mode of information to appear on any one data display, and the utilization of specific display program capabilities (such as a browser). Additionally, a method and apparatus is provided for a user to enter the information into a computing system, and for the computing system to generate the multi-display template.

Configuration of displays for targeted user communities

A computer implemented method and system include executing a search against both a client cache associated with a client and data sources remotely coupled to the client over a network connection. Results from the search against the client cache are rendered on a client UI. The client cache and the client UI are updated with the results from the search against the data sources.

Method and system for multi-tiered search over a high latency network

A system and method for using business services within a customer relationship management (CRM) application. Business services are objects that encapsulate and simplify the use of some set of functionality. The CRM application includes an object manager that manages business objects as well as business services. Business objects are associated with data stored in the application database. Business services operate or act upon business objects to achieve a particular goal. Business services include methods that can be invoked and properties that maintain information about the state of a process during execution.

System and method for using business services

A software development method and system having a suite of graphical customization tools that enables developers to rapidly configure all aspects of the underlying application software, including the look-and-feel, behavior, and workflow. This is accomplished without modifying application source code, base objects, or SQL. The sophisticated repository management capabilities of the method and system of our invention allows teams of developers to work efficiently on configuring applications. The application upgrader provides an automated process to upgrade the customizations to future product releases thus protecting the investment in customization. The ease, comprehensiveness, scalability, and upgradeability of the customization process help reduce the total lifecycle cost of customizing enterprise applications.

Development tool, method, and system for client server applications

A method for providing access to data via a voice interface. In one embodiment, the system includes a voice recognition unit and a speech processing server that work together to enable users to interact with the system using voice commands guided by navigation context sensitive voice prompts, and provide user-requested data in a verbalized format back to the users. Digitized voice waveform data are processed to determine the voice commands of the user. The system also uses a 'grammar' that enables users to retrieve data using intuitive natural language speech queries. In response to such a query, a corresponding data query is generated by the system to retrieve one or more data sets corresponding to the query. The user is then enabled to browse the data that are returned through voice command navigation, wherein the system 'reads' the data back to the user using text-to-speech (TTS) conversion and system prompts.

Method for accessing data via voice

Instantiation of tiered software applications running on an Internet or Intranet computer system, including a method of instantiation and a program product for instantiation. The method, and program product are particularly useful in instantiation of multi-tiered applications having a user interface tier on the client, browser, or remote computer, from a meta data repository containing attributes and values of the attributes.

Application instantiation based upon attributes and values stored in a meta data repository, including tiering of application layers, objects, and components

According to one aspect of the present invention, a system is provided to support a web-based application. The system comprising a set of server-side objects managed by an object manager (OM), the set of server-side objects including a global session object providing access to a repository, a server-side business object, and server-side business components contained in the server-side business object. The system further comprises a set of browser-side objects running on a browser, the set of browser-side objects including a browser-side application object that exists throughout a user-session to manage other browser-side objects. The system also comprises a remote procedure call (RPC) mechanism and a notification mechanism to facilitate communication and synchronization between the browser-side objects and the server-side objects.

Method, apparatus, and system for implementing a framework to support a web-based application

A typical client machine such as a personal computer includes network based application such as the Internet Explorer and a non-network based application such as the spreadsheet. A system and method to dynamically access the objects embedded in the network based application are disclosed. The object can be a Web site including data and the accessing is done to retrieve the data.

Client side integration for network based and non network based application
