METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING A STATE MODEL OF AN APPLICATION PROGRAM

摘要

Methods and apparatuses for enabling remote access to an application program via a computer network provided. Logical elements of the application program may be determined, from which a state model of the application program may be developed. A remote access program updates the state model in accordance with user input data received from a user interface program, generates control data in accordance with the. updated state model and provides the same to the application program. The state model may be updated in accordance with application data received from the application program, application representation data in accordance with the updated state model are generated and provided to the user interface program for display at, e.g., a remote client computing device. The application program may be a legacy mainframe application to which remote access is provided without the need to modify the source code of the mainframe application.
