Even greater affirmation patent 6826744 is a foundational work. Thanks to baveman.
Abstract
The present invention enables the creation, management, retrieval, distribution and massively large collections of information that can be shared across a distributed network without building absolute references or even pre-existing knowledge of the data and data structures being stored in such an environment. The system includes the following components: (1) a ‘flat’ data model wherein arbitrarily complex structures can be instantiated within a single memory allocation (including both the aggregation arrangements and the data itself, as well as any cross references between them via ‘relative’ references); (2) a run-time type system capable of defining and accessing binary strongly-typed data; (3) a set of ‘containers’ within which information encoded according to the system can be physically stored and preferably include a memory resident form, a file-based form, and a server-based form; (4) a client-server environment that is tied to the types system and capable...

A software testing system uses a graph traversal algorithm to explore a model simulating a software product in order to identify errors in the software product. The model employs a Petri's net construct for maintaining state and governing transitions. In particular, the model mediates between a test driver and the software product. The model-based approach is usable both to validate the design of the software and verify the implementation of that design. Using the Petri net model, the test space is bounded.

A method and system for delivering dynamic web pages in the INTERNET. Compiled programs embedding static queries to a database are stored on a server computer; view templates with HTML tags defining the layout of corresponding dynamic web pages and data tags instructing where and how to include each record of the query result into the respective dynamic web page are further stored on the server computer. When a dynamic web page must be distributed, the corresponding program is run, and the query result is stored into a shared memory structure. The query result is combined with the corresponding view template, by replacing the data tags with the associated records in the shared memory structure. The resulting web page is then distributed to client computers of the network.
