20100082705 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TEMPORAL AGGREGATION - A method, database system and computer program are disclosed for optimizing a SQL query, in which the SQL query seeks to aggregate temporal database information. The method includes determining whether two rows of information have a common grouping value, and if so, determining both temporal overlap and temporal non-overlap components of the two rows, aggregating each of the temporal overlap components of the two rows, and separating the temporal non-overlap components of the two rows. | 04-01-2010 |
20100088352 | WEB-SCALE DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM AND METHOD - A web-scale data processing system and method are provided herein. | 04-08-2010 |
20100114989 | Automatic gleaning of semantic information in social networks - Disclosed are method and apparatus for identifying members of a social network who have a high likelihood of providing a useful response to a query. A query engine examines the personal pages of a set of members and automatically gleans semantic information relevant to the query. From the automatically-gleaned semantic information, a score indicative of the likelihood that the member may provide a useful response is calculated. | 05-06-2010 |
20100274821 | Schema Matching Using Clicklogs - Techniques described herein describe a schema and taxonomy matching process that uses clicklogs to map a schema for source data to a schema for target data. A search engine may receive source data that is structured using the source schema, and the search engine itself may contain target data structured using the target schema. Using query distributions derived from the clicklogs, the source schema may be mapped to the target schema. The mapping can be used to integrate the source data into the target data and to index the integrated data for a search engine. | 10-28-2010 |
20110040805 | TECHNIQUES FOR PARALLEL BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE EVALUATION AND MANAGEMENT - Techniques for parallel business intelligence and management are provided. Data is collected from a variety of disparate sources and from a variety of disparate network locations. The data is then filtered and normalized. Next, relationships between elements in the data are established and correlations are created between the elements. The elements are then tagged and integrated with other data of a distributed knowledge store to create customized business intelligence reports and customized data visualizations. | 02-17-2011 |
20110055291 | Database Integration Tool - A first data set is gathered from a first server computer, and second data set is gathered from a second server computer. The first server computer may include a first database storing first aspects of subscriber data and a first interface configured to access the first database. The second server computer may include a second database storing second aspects of subscriber data and a second interface configured to access the second database. The first data set and the second data set are transformed into an integrated data set by merging the first data set and the second data set into the integrated data set. A central interface configured to access the integrated data set and bypass the first interface and the second interface is provided. The central interface may be configured to concurrently display the first aspects of subscriber data and the second aspects of subscriber data through a computer. | 03-03-2011 |
20120197949 | METHOD TO REGISTER VISITORS TO AN EVENT - A method to register visitors applies to many events, such as funerals. The method, deployed upon a computer, allows a user to select personalized services. The method also stores event organizer information common to various events. The method then automates the generation of invitations and tracking of RSVPs for an event. Then the method guides event visitors to enter information and comments through a computer into a database. The visitors do so upon a dedicated screen. Following an event, the method provides for production of a book compiling the information and comments of the visitors in a pleasing format suitable for long term use. The method also produces customized printed materials for mailing or emailing to event visitors. | 08-02-2012 |
20150347409 | Convert Command Into a BULK Load Operation - A method for inserting rows into a target table can include receiving a database command, the database command associated with a base table with at least one row to copy to a target table; receiving an indication that use of a BULK insert mode is feasible for the database command; based on the indication, and determining that an insert mode for the database command has been converted from a non-bulk insert mode to the BULK insert mode: reading a row from the base table; building the row read from the base table into an allocated row buffer; inserting the row into the target table in the BULK insert mode; and if it is determined that the allocated row buffer is full, updating at least one index in parallel with the inserting. | 12-03-2015 |
20160098429 | Labelling Entities in a Canonical Data Model - Enterprises express the concepts of their electronic business-to-business (B2B) communication in diffrently structured ontology-like schemas. Collaborations benefit from merging the common concepts into semantically unique Business Entities (BEs) in a merged schema. Methods and systems for labeling the merged schema with descriptive, yet short and unique names, are described. A heuristically ranked list of descriptive candidate phrases for each BE is derived locally from the names and descriptions of the underlying concepts. A semantically unique candidate phrase is assigned to each BE that discriminates it from the other BEs by employing a constraint satisfaction problem solver. | 04-07-2016 |
