20110057020 | Talking picture postcard - A talking picture postcard with a scored and die cut paperboard or thin plastic panel having a central portion, a first portion, a picture frame portion and a second portion which when folded together form a rectangular postcard sized construction. Within the folded construction is an audio microprocessor and support electronics. One side of the paperboard construction includes a die cut picture frame and the other side includes removable graphic labels that give instructions to the user on how to make a recording. When the user completes the recording he removes the graphic labels and pushes down on a record switch separator tab so that the receiver can not accidentally record over the message. The user can insert a photo or other graphic into the picture frame portion and then send the entire unit through the mail just as one would send a standard postcard. | 03-10-2011 |

20130046549 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SOCIAL ENTERPRISE PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT - Systems and methods are provided for social enterprise portfolio management. A database system can use subscription information for project portfolio records to enable system users to subscribe to receive timely updates of these records, in contrast to the system users waiting for periodic project reports when projects meet various milestones. The database system can provide updates about any modifications of specified portfolio records to subscribed system users via feeds to display devices, enabling these system users to respond promptly to these updates. For example, subscribed system users can request and receive updates for portfolio records for viewing in one location, which enables subscribed system users to prioritize responses to updates. A system user can select to subscribe to updates of portfolio records, thereby relieving some of a project manager's responsibility for providing every subscription detail for the project manager's project. | 02-21-2013 |

20080222123 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CLEANSING SEQUENCE-BASED DATA AT QUERY TIME - A method and system for cleansing anomalies from sequence-based data at query time. Sequence-based data such as RFID data is loaded into a database. One or more cleansing rules are received at a cleansing rules engine. The cleansing rule engine converts the cleansing rule(s) to a template that includes logic to compensate for anomalies in the sequence-based data. A query to retrieve the sequence-based data is received by a query rewrite engine. The query rewrite engine rewrites the query by applying the template logic. The rewritten query is executed at query time. The result of the rewritten query execution is identical to the result of executing the original query on a data set generated by applying the cleansing rule to all of the sequence-based data. | 09-11-2008 |
20090070313 | ADAPTIVELY REORDERING JOINS DURING QUERY EXECUTION - A method is disclosed for executing a predetermined query plan, the method comprising: executing a portion of the query plan; providing a reordered query plan; comparing ranking metrics for the query plans; and executing the query plan having the lower ranking metric. | 03-12-2009 |
20110184933 | JOIN ALGORITHMS OVER FULL TEXT INDEXES - According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for processing join predicates in full-text indexes is provided. The method includes evaluating local predicates of an outer full text index to generate a first posting list of documents. For each document in the first posting list, the value of a join attribute is determined and an inner full text index is probed to obtain a second posting list of documents containing one of the join attributes determined for each document. Local predicates of an inner full text index are evaluated to generate a third posting list of documents, and the second posting list is merged with the third posting list to generate a merge list of documents. Documents in the first posting list may be paired up with documents in the merge list. | 07-28-2011 |
