20110246536 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MAPPING OBJECTS TO MULTIPLE TABLES OF A DATABASE - The present invention creates a model that maps object classes in an object-oriented environment to a data source. The model maps the relationship between properties of each object class and data of the data source. The present invention can be used with a data source such as a relational database, user interface, file system, or object-oriented database. An application's object classes and data source schema are designed independent of the other since the model can be used to map one to the other. The model is comprised of entities and attributes. An entity maps to an object class and to at least one table of the DBMS. An entity contains attributes either simple or derived. A simple attribute maps to a DBMS column. A derived attribute is a combination of other attributes and does not directly map to a DBMS column. A relationship creates a link between entities of the model. A relationship can be used to flatten an attribute or flatten a relationship. A flattened attribute is an attribute of one entity that is added to another entity. A flattened relationship is created by the elimination of intermediate relationships between two entities. Relationships can be either unidirectional or bi-directional. A unidirectional relationship has a single traversal path that has a source entity and a destination. A bi-directional relationship has two traversal paths. A reflexive relationship can be created using a single entity. The model is used to synchronize object properties and the data of the data source. | 10-06-2011 |

20130166609 | HIERARCHICAL BEHAVIORAL PROFILE - In a hierarchical profile, each node represents at least one feature of behavioral data collected about an entity profiled, with the topmost node selected as the “statistically most informative” feature of the data. A profile can cover numerous domains and be predictively very powerful in each domain. A number of observations can be “aggregated” together into a single datapoint. In use, the structure of the profile is compared against current information associated with the entity to produce a recommendation or prediction. If the profile represents at least some data aggregation, then new observations are folded into the profile based on statistical weights of the aggregations. Because of the way the profile is created and updated, its hierarchical structure maps the collected observations. Therefore, as new observations are incorporated, if the new observations change the profile's structure significantly, then it can be hypothesized that something “interesting” has happened to the entity. | 06-27-2013 |

For example, when a change occurs to the conceptual model, a local scope of the change is determined. The local scope indicates mappings that are most similar to the type(s) affected by the change. Based on the local scope, a pattern of mappings between the conceptual model and the store model is determined. Using this pattern and the nature of the change, the mappings are updated according to the pattern. In addition, the store model and data thereon may be updated in a manner to preserve existing data that is not to be deleted in response to the change. | 10-17-2013 |

20140304307 | Framework for Media Presentation Playback - A system for generating a structured file that includes all of the various media items need to play the corresponding media presentation is described. (Media items include, for example, images, movies, and audio files.) In one implementation, all of the various media items needed to support the presentation's playback may be collected, where after at least one of them is texturized. Texturing means converting a media item from a larger format to a smaller format. For example, a JPEG file (described in terms of scalable vector-based data) may be texturized to a PNG file (described in terms of pixel data). The items may then be organized in accordance with an event, and stored in a structured file. Once organized by event (e.g., presentation pause-points, frame transitions, effect transitions, input “click” and the like), the media items may be stored into the structured file, ready to playback the media presentation. | 10-09-2014 |
