Abstract: The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method for scoring and visualizing combined search results, comprising: (a) performing a plurality of individual searches on data objects stored in a database, wherein the data objects are stored in defined fixed data structures; (b) combining the plurality of individual searches into a combined search; (c) determining a weight for each of the individual searches; and (d) obtaining a search result of the combined search, wherein the search result of the combined search comprises scores associated with a subset of the data objects.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method for applying access rights to a database comprising a plurality of data units. The method may comprise receiving a request from a user to perform an operation directed to at least a subset of data objects stored in the database. Next, access rights associated with the user may be determined. The access rights may comprise an access permission to a subset of one or more of the data units that is implemented by performing a filter operation. The operation and the filter operation may then be performed concurrently to the at least subset of data objects to obtain a filtered data set.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for creating and managing a database system comprising data structures for storing, in a memory, data and relations between the data, the method comprising the steps of creating a mind map structure wherein each node of the mind map represents a set in the first data structure and each branch represents a relation in the fifth data structure of the database in which there are defined five data structures that hold all information relating to tables, records and relations, namely: a first data structure comprising a definition of at least one data set, a second data structure comprising definitions of properties of objects, a third data structure comprising definitions of objects, a fourth data structure comprising definitions of properties of each object, a fifth data structure comprising definitions of relations and a sixth data structure for storing definitions of relations between objects.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method for applying an analysis to a data model comprising data objects. The method may comprise receiving the analysis and the first data model each in semantic format. Next, the analysis and the data model may be computer processed to (i) identify one or more elements missing from the data model and (ii) determine that the analysis is not applicable to the data model upon identification of the one or more elements. The one or more elements may then be presented to a user for adjusting the data model. This may be repeated until the analysis is applicable to the data model. The analysis may then be performed on the data objects of the data model.

Abstract: Computer implemented methods for database hierarchy-independent data drilling are presented including: a. selecting one of at least two database structures each having data, where the at least two database structures include, at least two distinct paths that lead from a first of the at least two database structures to a second of the at least two database structures, where a path logically relates at least two data structures which are otherwise directly unrelated using data structures and data structures' relations, and a database information schema that provides information about the at least two database structures including information regarding relations between data structures; b. setting the selected database structure as a current data drilling state; and c. finding at least one related data structure corresponding with the selected database structure for the current data drilling state utilizing the database information schema.

Abstract: A method for providing visualization of data objects in a relational database is provided. The method comprises: (a) bringing an electronic device of a user in communication with a server comprising the non-hierarchical relational database, (b) generating and displaying a graph comprising visual graphical elements including a first node representing a first class encompassing a first subset of the data objects, a second node representing a second class encompassing a second subset of the data objects, and a link representing a relationship between the first class and the second class, (c) receiving a request via the user interface of the electronic device to perform a task directed to at least a subset of the data objects, (d) generating one or more filtering operations for the task and, upon execution, producing a graphical result comprising a filtered data set, and (e) automatically displaying the graphical result on the user interface.

Abstract: Computer implemented methods for storing ad hoc relations between previously unrelated database objects assigned to different database structures using an electronic computing device are presented, the methods including: causing the electronic computing device to define at least three database structures: structure A, structure B and structure C, where each of the at least three database structures each includes a number of objects, where there exists at least one relation between objects of structure A and objects of structure B, and where there exists at least one relation between objects of structure B and objects of structure C; filtering data of structure A; accessing structure B using a first selected relation between structure A and structure B; storing information about filtering of structure A and information on a first selected path between structure A and structure B; filtering results obtained from structure B.
