Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current app development and management systems are complex and time-consuming, requiring advanced coding or software development knowledge, especially when managing apps with event artifacts, which involves many manual and inefficient processes.
Innovation Solution
A computer-implemented method and system that provides an app development user interface for importing event artifacts from deployed apps, allowing users to develop, deploy, and run apps using visual model-based representations, with event information imported to a data storage platform for processing and output generation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional app development methods are used, then apps can be developed with full functionality, but the development process becomes complex and time-consuming requiring advanced coding knowledge
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces traditional manual coding mechanisms with an automated code generation system. The system automatically generates app code based on visual model representations and imported event artifacts, eliminating the need for users to manually write complex code and reducing the complexity of the development process.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent imports event artifacts from existing deployed apps into the development environment. These artifacts serve as reusable templates or copies that can be directly utilized in new app development, reducing the need to create everything from scratch and simplifying the development process.
2Productivity
If manual processes are used for managing event artifacts, then complete control is maintained, but the process becomes inefficient and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically generating code and importing event artifacts before the actual app development and deployment stages. This pre-preparation work reduces the time required during active development and eliminates manual intervention in later stages.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by automatically managing event artifact imports and code generation without requiring manual intervention. The automated workflows handle data extraction, transformation, and integration tasks independently, significantly improving productivity and reducing time loss.
3Ease of operation
If visual model-based approaches are used, then development is simplified for non-IT experts, but integration with existing deployed apps becomes challenging
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary layer that connects visual model-based development with existing deployed apps. This intermediary automatically extracts event artifacts from deployed apps, transforms them into compatible formats, and integrates them with the visual development environment, enabling seamless integration without compromising ease of use.

AI summary
For an improved managing of an app, a computer-implemented method includes: providing an app development user interface of an app development platform to a user; capturing the user's intent to import a respective event artifact from a respective deployed and running producing app; importing the respective event artifact corresponding to the captured user's intent to the app development UI; developing the app through the app development UI using the imported respective event artifact; deploying and running the developed app on a target device; importing event information corresponding to the respective event artifact from the respective producing app to a data storage platform; providing the event information imported to the data storage platform from the data storage platform to the deployed and running app; and applying an app algorithm comprised by the deployed and running app on the provided event information to generate output data.
