==SEMANTIC FUNCTIONAL WRAPPERS OF SERVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18454555 titled 'SEMANTIC FUNCTIONAL WRAPPERS OF SERVICES

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract of this patent application describes functional wrappers, which are scripts and software that group and invoke specific functionality in a legacy application. These wrappers allow access to legacy application functionality in modern software architectures without the risk of errors during the porting process. The abstract also mentions the addition of functionality to the wrappers, such as parallelism and scaling, which were not available when the legacy applications were developed. The automatic generation of these functional wrappers is also disclosed.

* Functional wrappers are scripts/software that group and invoke specific functionality in a legacy application.
* They provide programmatic access to legacy application functionality in modern software architectures.
* They eliminate the risk of errors during the porting process.
* Additional functionality, like parallelism and scaling, can be added to the wrappers.
* The patent application discloses the automatic generation of these functional wrappers.

== Potential Applications ==
* Integration of legacy applications into modern software architectures.
* Enabling programmatic access to specific functionality in legacy applications.
* Adding new features to legacy applications without modifying their codebase.

== Problems Solved ==
* Risk of errors during the porting process of legacy applications.
* Limited access to specific functionality in legacy applications.
* Inability to add new features to legacy applications without modifying their codebase.

== Benefits ==
* Seamless integration of legacy applications into modern software architectures.
* Improved access to specific functionality in legacy applications.
* Ability to add new features to legacy applications without modifying their codebase.
* Automatic generation of functional wrappers saves time and effort.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Functional wrappers are scripts and related software that provide a way to group and invoke functionality comprising semantic intent in a legacy application. These functional wrappers allow programmatic access to functionality in legacy applications in contemporary software architectures without risk of porting errors. Additional functionality to provide features with presently expected, but not available at the time the legacy applications were developed, such as functional wrappers to provide parallelism and scaling, are disclosed. Finally, automatic generation of the functional wrappers are also disclosed.
