Abstract

See full text

A new way to 'webify' host applications and streamline them for different user groups, without revising the original application on the host, enhances the usability of host applications in a web environment--providing a graphical user interface and streamlining the flow of information for current or new user groups. Host application materials are analyzed as source material, rather than as a literal script. Processing can alter the way host information is presented--both in terms of appearance and sequence--making it possible to present just the information user groups care about, with a new graphical interface that's familiar to today's PC users. Additional components using JavaScript control how information from the host is presented in a web browser, without modifying the original application on the host system. Customization is based on how host systems work, and is used to adapt host applications to the web and to design effective graphical interfaces that make host applications easy to use. This unique blend allows a 'webified' application to be available quickly, and to give the precisely desired results to its users.
