Abstract:

There are provided mechanisms and methods for mapping information from disparate data sources into a single user profile. Embodiments can provide the capability to work with profiles for users as well as for other entities. These external data sources can include, without limitation: relational databases, file system and Java classes, Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs), Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) servers and other network accessible sources. These mechanisms and methods can enable creating a single user profile from attributes residing in disparate data stores. The ability of embodiments to provide mechanisms and methods for creating a single user profile from attributes residing in disparate data stores can enable easier configuration of profiles, without requiring users to write code to perform the mapping.

Abstract:

A method for navigating a graphical user interface (GUI) having at least one page, comprising providing a first booklet, wherein user interaction with the first booklet can cause the GUI to navigate to a new page; providing a request based on user interaction with the first booklet; mapping the request to a control tree factory; generating a control tree from the factory based on the request wherein the control tree includes a booklet control corresponding to the first booklet; advancing the control tree through at least one lifecycle stage based on the request; and generating a response wherein the response can be used to render the new page.

Abstract:

Embodiments provide mechanisms and methods for providing disconnectible applications capable of executing at least semi-autonomously, i. e. , without needing constant contact with a server, on a client substantially independent of server connectivity. The ability of a disconnectible application to execute on a client substantially independent of server connectivity can enable enhanced flexibility in organizing applications to build data processing systems.

International Classification:

G06F007/00

US Classification:

707/100000

Abstract:

The present invention includes systems utilizing, and methods for generating, a unified user profile to provide a transparent interface to multiple data sources. A base user java bean is obtained to work through a personalization server and access a personalization database. The base user java bean provides a transparent interface through which implicit and explicit properties can be retrieved and updated. An enterprise java bean is then created to extend the base user java bean such that the implicit and explicit properties can further be retrieved and updated from an external user database through the transparent interface.
