Various of the disclosed embodiments concern systems and methods for constructing enterprise applications. A universal Smart Enterprise Information platform can operate as a hub for data retrieved from different internal and external sources and provide an integrated and automated way for enterprise information to be managed. More specifically, the platform is able to retrieve data from one or more sources and construct models that represent, for example, common business scenarios. The platform employs assorted software development techniques to bring together the business, design, and runtime domains. Using a unique development paradigm (“CORTEX”), the models can be used to construct an application with minimal programming efforts. The platform allows a user to construct compelling applications using preexisting structures that can be automatically converted to models, unlike conventional software development techniques that require large sections of code to be rewritten each time a new model or program is created.
