EP Patent App. EP20130000558, (August 2014)

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to methods, techniques, and systems for providing adaptive automated interaction capabilities for computer applications that request automated conducting of domain specific transactions via a domain specific online transaction website, e.g. an online-banking web site in a failure-proof manner and, in particular, to methods, techniques and systems for employing adaptive mixing of script-based and avatar-based execution entities for delegating sub-tasks and activities of a domain-specific transaction workflow for automated processing via a domain-specific online transaction website, the transactions being requested by a third party computer application and the domain e.g. pertaining to online banking. Embodiment code scripts such that they are robust for automated conducting of online transactions via online transaction website in particular when confronted with marginal changes in the syntactic structure of the underlying website. Moreover, functional activities as elements of requested online transactions, or in other words distinguishable interaction patterns describable on a macro level (e.g. a login pattern) are reflected in the structure of the scripts and represented only once to prevent redundancy, increase re-use and by that increase efficiency in customizing and maintaining the scripts. Besides reducing the time for repairing failing scripts, the task of repairing such failing scripts is partly automated and functionally equivalent fallback solutions are provided that assure continued operation such that the automated conducting of the requested transaction is reliably achieved even in the case of a single script eventually failing to execute correctly.
