Abstract
A method is described that involves generating an update to an object-oriented model of an information system from information that describes a new state of the information system. The generating includes applying a synchronization rule for a sub-system identified within the information system. The synchronization rule indicates whether a new component within the sub-system that appears within the information is merged within the sub-system or replaces a component within the sub-system.
Claims18
A method, comprising:
- generating an update to an object-oriented model of an information system from information that describes a new state of the information system, said generating comprising applying a synchronization rule for a sub-system identified within the information system, said synchronization rule to indicate whether a new component within the sub-system that appears within the information is merged within the sub-system or replaces a component within the sub-system.
An article of manufacture including program code which, when executed by a machine, causes the machine to perform a method, the method comprising:
- generating an update to an object-oriented model of an information system from information that describes a new state of the information system, said generating comprising applying a synchronization rule for a sub system identified within the information system, said synchronization rule to indicate whether a new component within the sub-system that appears within the information is merged within the sub-system or replaces a component within the sub-system.
A computing system comprising a machine, said computing system also comprising instructions disposed on a computer readable medium, said instructions capable of being executed by said machine to perform a method, said method comprising:
- generating an update to an object-oriented model of an information system from information that describes a new state of the information system, said generating comprising applying a synchronization rule for a sub system identified within the information system, said synchronization rule to indicate whether a new component within the sub-system that appears within the information is merged within the sub-system or replaces a component within the sub-system.
