A web service packages an XForm type form containing interactive fields used by the web service, in a RSS/ATOM feed item. The web service sends the RSS/ATOM feed item to a computerized client, wherein the computerized client is a subscriber to the web service's RSS/ATOM feed and the computerized client is in network communication with a server hosting the web service. The computerized client displays the form for use by a user. Responsive to the user of the computerized client manipulating interactive fields in the form, the computerized client packages the manipulated form in a return RSS/ATOM feed item. The computerized client sends the return RSS/ATOM feed item to the server hosting the web service, wherein the server is a subscriber to the computerized client's return RSS/ATOM feed.

A determination is made as to whether a message received at a first client application cache of a group of client application caches matches one of a set of stored rules. Each rule triggers an event in another one of the group of client application caches in response to receipt of a matching message from a client application. Another message directed to another specified client application cache is generated for each rule determined to match the received message at a first client application cache. The generated message directs the other specified client application cache to collect and cache specified information from a server associated with the other specified client application cache.

Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for using a declaration of security requirements to determine whether to permit application operations. A declaration of security requirements indicates actions the application designates to perform with respect to resources in a computer system, wherein a plurality of the indicated actions are indicated for at least two operation modes of the application. A detection is made of whether the application is requesting to perform a requested action with respect to a requested resource in the computer system. A determination is made of a current operation mode of the application comprising one of the at least two operation modes in response to detecting that the application is requesting the requested action. A determination is made as to whether the declaration of security requirements indicates the requested action with the current operation mode. The requested action with respect to the requested resource is allowed to proceed in response to determining that the declaration of security requirements indicates the requested action with respect to the requested resource as indicated with the current operation mode.

Using a declaration of security requirements to determine whether to permit application operations

Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to configuring a computing appliance and provide a method, system and computer program product for device certificate based virtual appliance configuration. In one embodiment of the invention, a virtual appliance secure configuration method can be provided. The method can include mounting non-volatile storage to the virtual appliance, retrieving a device certificate from the mounted storage and extracting a signature from the device certificate, activating the virtual appliance in a network domain and acquiring an adapter address and unique identifier for the virtual appliance, and authenticating the signature with the adapter address and unique identifier to ensure a unique active instance of the virtual appliance.

Device certificate based appliance configuration

Information is collected regarding an event in a computer system that includes a group of client application caches that each temporarily store information associated with one of a group of client applications. A set of rules is stored at one or more of the group of client application caches. Each rule triggers the event in another one of the group of client application caches in response to receipt of a message from a client application associated with the respective client application cache. Another message directed to another specified client application cache is generated for each rule that matches a first received message at a first client application cache. The generated message directs the other specified client application cache to collect and cache specified information from a server associated with the other specified client application cache.

A run-time application-generated change to dynamic web content, generated during an application run-time by a dynamic web application, is detected in response to user run-time interactions with the dynamic web content rendered by the dynamic web application that changed the dynamic web content during the run-time. The detected run-time application-generated change to the dynamic web content is parsed. The parsed run-time application-generated change to the dynamic web content is compared with web content compliance rules that define specifications for web content representation. A noncompliant element associated with the parsed run-time application-generated change is identified based upon the comparison with the web content compliance rules. A run-time correction of the identified noncompliant element within the dynamic web content changed by the dynamic web application is performed to cause the identified noncompliant element to comply with the web content compliance rules.

Automated correction and reporting for dynamic web applications

The present invention is a method for synchronizing multiple layers of constrained optimization with both layers having some common variables in a to processing plant. The layers of optimization can include Planning, Scheduling, Real-Time Optimization and Model Predictive Control.
