A system and method for generating dynamic user interfaces that retrieve, at a backend UI server, one or more user requests originating from an information management application, retrieving, at the backend UI server, a data response originating from a data server in response to the one or more user requests, calculate, at the backend UI server, relevance values for each display component of the information management application, append the calculated relevance values to the data response, transmit the calculated relevance values and the data response to a frontend UI server; and generate, at the frontend UI server, a user interface for the information management application based on the calculated relevance values.

Systems and methods for self-learning dynamic interfaces

This disclosure provides various embodiments for searching one or more repositories hosting, storing, or maintaining a plurality of development artifacts. A search query for development artifacts is received through an interface of an integrated development environment, the search query identifying at least one search term. An index is used to identify a set of search results, the index identifying a plurality of development artifacts and including context data identifying, for each development artifact in the plurality of development artifacts, at least one attribute of the respective development artifact. The set of search results identify a subset of the plurality of development artifacts determined to potentially relate to the at least one search term. At least a portion of the set of search results are presented to a user, the listing including at least one development artifact in the subset of the plurality of development artifacts.

Development artifact searching in an integrated development environment

In a method and system for increasing security when accessing a business system, a generic hub receives a request having a first transfer protocol from a user to access an application or application data maintained in an application server. In response to the user request, the generic hub verifies the authorization of the user to access the application server. If the user is authorized, a user interface to the application is presented to the user and input data is received from the user interface. The input data is checked for validity based on application-specific metadata and type checks bound to this metadata associated with fields in the user interface, and any extraneous or non-expected data is removed from the input data. The input data and user request of a first transfer protocol are tunneled to the application using a second transfer protocol.

Generic hub to increase security when accessing business systems

Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for customizing software application programs, including self-service applications. In one implementation, a customer selects software components from a standard set of components provided by a developer. The selected software components are then used to form a customized software application. Thereafter, the customized software application may be used by an end user to perform one or more tasks.

Methods and systems for configuring software applications

Generally, systems and methods for managing and searching web services are provided. Example software comprises computer readable instructions operable to receive a query from a first client for one or more requested web services via a graphical user interface. The software then identifies at least one web service stored in a Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI) registry based on the query and an index of web service metadata. Information associated with the one or more identified web services is then presented via the graphical user interface.

System and method for searching web services

Methods and systems for specifying the state of an application interface during configuration of the business system are provided. A state controller can manage communication between application interfaces and interface proxies. Each interface proxy replicates the services exposed by an application interface associated with backend applications in a business system. The state controller allows each application to operate in a stateful mode, a stateless mode, or a combined mode. The mode for an application can be specified during configuration/installation of the business system, removing the need to specify communication modes for applications during design and development of the applications and business system. The use of an interface proxy allows user interface (frontend) application to be developed and/or configured individually, and without regard to the communication mode used by the backend applications.

System and method for switching between stateful and stateless communication modes

A method of generating a current user interface for an application includes receiving an indication of an event, obtaining a visual component for the current user interface based on the event, and building the current user interface using the visual component. The visual component is a constituent of the current user interface that defines a function of the current user interface.
