Appl. No.:

13/045887

Inventors:

Michael P. Rodgers - Aurora CO, US

Assignee:

Oracle International Corporation - Redwood Shores CA

International Classification:

G06F 3/048

US Classification:

715768, 715823

Abstract:

Various arrangements for simplifying a display of a flowchart are presented. A flowchart may include a plurality of elements, including a plurality of vertices and a plurality of edges. A selection of an element of the plurality of elements may be received. A logical distance for each element of the plurality of elements may be calculated. The logical distance may be between each element and the element identified by the selection. The flowchart may be displayed with a portion of the plurality of elements emphasized. The portion of the plurality of elements emphasized are selected at least partially based on the logical distance of each element of the plurality of elements.

International Classification:

US Classification:

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer program product for moving objects such as a display window about a display frame by combining classical mechanics of motion. A window nudging method commences by receiving a discrete user interface gesture from a human interface device such as a mouse click or a keystroke, and based the discrete user interface gesture, instantaneously accelerating the window object to an initial velocity. Once the window is in motion, then the method applies a first animation to animate the window object using realistic motion changes. Such realistic motion changes comprise a friction model that combines sliding friction with fluid friction to determine frame-by-frame changes in velocity. The friction model that combines sliding friction with fluid friction can be applied to any object in the display frame. Collisions between one object and another object or between one object and its environment are modeled using a critically-damped spring model.

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer program product for displaying an automatically generated graphical display of a business process flow to facilitate user interaction with enterprise software applications. A compact symbolic annotation language is used in conjunction with a flow generator to automatically generate a computer renderable description of the business process flow. The method commences by defining symbols to form an alphabet to be used in the symbolic annotation language. The compact symbolic language is capable of representing rich semantics including process operations, fork operations, and join operations. Once an agent (e.g., a person, a computer agent) has captured a particular business process flow using symbols of the compact symbolic annotation language, then a computer process performs a mapping of the symbols to a markup language. The markup language can be rendered in a graphical display. The markup language can be HTML/CSS, SVG, UML, or another markup language.

Abstract:

Some implementations of the disclosure are directed to a media access controller (MAC) of a mobile satellite terminal that may autonomously determine whether or not wake up a software processor of the mobile satellite terminal depending on information contained in a packet received from a user device. The MAC may receive a frame contained in a packet transmitted by a user device to the mobile satellite terminal; automatically determine whether to accept or drop the frame by applying one or more programmed filters to the frame; if the frame is accepted: store the frame in the memory, and cause a power controller to power on the software processor to process the stored frame; and if the frame is not accepted: drop the frame without causing the power controller to power on the software processor.

Abstract:

Systems to gamify a data processing application using auditing data. Processing commences upon accessing electronic records comprising a set of application auditing specifications that identify one or more transaction types to be executed by a data processing application. Certain transactions corresponding to the identified transaction types are observed by an auditing facility during operation of the data processing application. At least some of the identified transaction types and measured audit parameters corresponding to the transactions are recorded. A gamification module associates the measured audit parameters with game parameters. Motivational imagery such as a scoreboard is generated for display.

International Classification:

Abstract:

Embodiments are disclosed that provide for adaptively anticipating user interactions with a computer application. In one embodiment, an ordered history of user interactions, with controls of a computerized form provided by a legacy computer application, is captured. A likelihood data structure is generated which represents conditional probabilities indicating the likelihood that each control of the computerized form will be a next control used. A list of next likely controls to be used is generated based on the likelihood data structure. The next likely controls are ranked within the list according to conditional probability. A limited graphical user interface, representing the list of next likely controls, is generated. A next control of the computerized form to be used is regulated by displaying the limited graphical user interface.

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer program product for Java development environments. The method commences upon receiving a set of one or more rules to be applied to one or more JSON messages, then generating of one or more Java classes respective to received JSON messages. The received JSON messages can be retrieved from a repository for JSON message files, or the JSON messages can be received by sniffing a message transmitted over a network link. The rules can be applied according to one or more precedence regimes, and applying the precedence regimes over the two or more rules can be considered in a pre-processing step performed before receiving a JSON message or can be considered after receiving a JSON message.
