20100318942 | RESOLVING INTER-PAGE NODES AND CONNECTORS IN PROCESS DIAGRAMS - A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program product for resolving inter-page nodes in flow diagrams is presented. In one embodiment, an inter-page node in a flow diagram is identified. An inter-page node is a node laid out on a page break in a multi-page flow diagram. A set of candidate pages is formed. A bid for each page in a set of candidate pages is requested from each policy in a set of page break policies. A page is selected from the set of candidate pages based on bids received from the set of page break policies. A value of each bid indicates a level of suitability of each page in the set of candidate pages. The inter-page node located on the page break is moved to a new location on the selected page. The new location on the selected page is located off of all page breaks for the flow diagram. | 12-16-2010 |

20080276219 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING A CONDITION BUILDER INTERFACE - An apparatus and method for providing a user interface through which a user may generate a conditional expression are provided. The user interface provides guidance to a user as to the proper parts of the conditional expression to include in the conditional expression as the user constructs the conditional expression. Thus, as the user completes parts of the conditional expression, the guidance that is offered is updated based on the current context of the conditional expression. This guidance may include listings of variables, attributes and/or functions that are most appropriate to be entered next in the conditional expression, help text, and the like. | 11-06-2008 |
20100153907 | Configurable Unified Modeling Language Building Blocks - Illustrative embodiments provide a computer-implemented method for configurable Unified Modeling Language building blocks. The computer-implemented method obtains a Unified Modeling Language specification and generates a set of logical units from the Unified Modeling Language specification to form a set of building blocks. The computer-implemented method further fetches desired blocks from the set of building blocks according to predefined criteria to form a set of desired blocks, and presents the set of desired building blocks to a requestor for execution of functions provided by the set of desired building blocks to complete a defined task. | 06-17-2010 |

20110055563 | ENCRYPTION OF SECURITY-SENSITIVE DATA BY RE-USING A CONNECTION - Techniques are provided for processing data. Connections having different security properties are stored, wherein each of the connections allows applications at the client computer to access data sources at a server computer. A request is received from an application to access a data source, wherein the request has associated security properties. In response to the client computer requesting establishment of a connection on behalf of the application, it is determined whether there is a stored connection that used a same set of security properties as are associated with the request from the application and that connected to the data source that the application requests access to. In response to determining that there is a stored connection that used the same set of security properties and that connected to the data source, the connection and an associated client encryption seed, client encryption token, server encryption seed, and server encryption token are re-used. In response to determining that there is not a connection that used the same set of security properties and that connected to the data source, a new client connection key, client encryption seed, client encryption token, sever connection key, server encryption seed, and server encryption token are generated. | 03-03-2011 |

20150102661 | Modular Equipment Center Distributed Primary Power Architecture - A plurality of modular equipment centers (MECs) spatially distributed throughout a vehicle servicing equipment loads. Each MEC independently provides localized power and communication to service the equipment loads and each equipment load is serviced by the nearest MEC. In at least one embodiment, only primary power is distributed across section breaks of the vehicle to minimize the number of connections between section breaks, reduce overall vehicle weight, and to increase vehicle build rate. | 04-16-2015 |
