ABSTRACT:
A method for creating and disseminating knowledge-based object models converts object models created on a source platform to a first human-readable flat file prior to transmission on a network, allowing object models to be transported across differing platforms incorporating different languages. At a network receiving station, a transmitted flat file is read and the object model is recreated by a run-time engine. In some embodiments flat files created on the source platform are used by a graphical user interface (GUI) model builder to create a GUI object model associated with the first object model, which is converted to a second flat file to be transported to a receiving station along with the first flat file. Both flat files in this embodiment are used at the receiving station to recreate the associated object models. In further embodiments multimedia files are generated on the source platform and associated with the GUI object model, and transported to the receiving station along with the flat files.
