Computer-implemented methods, computer program products and data processing systems for presenting dynamic data pertaining to a process. In one aspect, region information identifying a plurality of user-selected regions of the process, switching information identifying criteria for switching among the user-selected regions, and dynamic data pertaining to the process, are used to generate a dynamic visual representation of the process which emphasizes, at any given time, only one of the user-selected regions. The user-selected region emphasized at any given time is automatically determined according to the criteria for switching. In another aspect, region information identifying at least one user-selected region of the process and dynamic data pertaining to the process are used to generate a dynamic visual representation of at least a portion of the process containing the at least one user-selected region. The visual representation emphasizes each user-selected region within the context of the portion of the process.

Process data presentation based on process regions

The illustrative embodiments described herein provide a computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program product for managing a flow model simulation. In an illustrative embodiment, annotated simulation settings are associated with a source model in response to receiving the source model. The annotated simulation settings are derived from at least one of a set of user-defined simulation settings and default simulation settings. The annotated source model is transformed into an internal domain model using a set of links that are generated using a set of link rules. The set of links maps a set of source model elements to a set of internal domain model elements of the internal domain model. Results from a simulation of the internal domain model are mapped back to the source model to identify a context for the results. Thereafter, a target view model is generated from the internal domain model. The target view model includes the results presented in the context of the source model.

Transparent flow model simulation implementing bi-directional links

A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product for providing an optimization solution comprising an open, generalized and reusable parametric optimization framework and architecture which enables rapid deployment of optimization solutions to any tool or program that builds on an integrated development environment platform. In the optimization framework, a core optimization plugin is provided which comprises an internal optimization model and a set of optimization tools. The optimization framework also comprises pluggable and customizable component providers and descriptors external to the core optimization plugin. The core optimization plugin receives configuration information from a user. The information enables the core optimization plugin to interact with a user data model in a plurality of different user data models. The information also enables the core optimization plugin to interact with providers selected from the plurality of providers and descriptors based on a format of the user data model.
