Abstract: Systems and methods for generating previews of list data in space constrained user interfaces are disclosed. In the available display area of a particular display device or user interface, a segment of a list of items are displayed. Values in the on-screen and off-screen portions of the list are analyzed and processed to generate previews of the list. One preview includes generating a box plot of the distribution of values in the list. An adaptively sized slider can then be generated relative to the box plot to indicate which part of the distribution is displayed in the list items that fit in the available display area. Another preview includes generating a composite row in the available display area that summarizes the data in one or more of the off-screen portions of the list. Such previews can include the sum or average of the values in the off-screen list items.

Abstract: Various embodiments herein each include at least one of systems, methods, and software for multi-item access of pricing condition tables. Such embodiments generally retrieve applicable pricing conditions from each relevant pricing condition table in a single query for each product included in an order or invoicing document, or other document within which pricing data is provided. The retrieved pricing condition data may then be written to a buffer in memory and utilized in pricing products included in an order or invoice document. Such embodiments generally reduce a number of queries that are executed against pricing condition tables thereby increasing the efficiency of pricing activities.

Abstract: Approaches to memory management and synchronization are described relating to provision of highly robust and highly available servers that can serve multiple requests in parallel. Programming objects can be analyzed at design time by comparison to predefined patterns to identify a set of requirements and rules that must be followed to ensure that all part of a program cooperate. In highly complex programming environments, enforcement of such rules for a program as a whole can be quite difficult. As such, analysis of compliance can desirably occur at a programming object level.

Abstract: A system calculates a relevance of sales opportunities and generates a visualization of the relevance of the sales opportunities. Objects from a customer relationship management (CRM) database and other business application database are accessed to compute an importance score and an urgency score for each object. The importance score is computed based on parameters indicative of an importance of an opportunity. The urgency score is computed based on parameters indicative of an urgency of an opportunity. A relevance score is computed for the objects using the importance score and the urgency score. The objects are ranked based on the corresponding relevance score. A visualization of the objects from the CRM database with relevance scores exceeding a relevance score threshold is generated.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to processing encrypted data, and in particular to identifying an appropriate layer of encryption useful for processing a query. Such identification (also known as the onion selection problem) is achieved utilizing an adjustable onion encryption procedure. Based upon defined requirements of policy configuration, alternative resolution, and conflict resolution, the adjustable onion encryption procedure entails translating a query comprising an expression in a database language (e.g. SQL) into an equivalent query on encrypted data. The onion may be configured in almost arbitrary ways directing the onion selection. An execution function introduces an execution split to allow local (e.g. client-side) query fulfillment that may otherwise not be possible in a secure manner on the server-side. A searchable encryption function may also be employed, and embodiments accommodate aggregation via homomorphic encryption. Embodiments may be implemented as an in-memory column store database system.

Abstract: Embodiments provide ideal security, order-preserving encryption (OPE) of data of average complexity, thereby allowing processing of the encrypted data (e.g. at a database server in response to received queries). Particular embodiments achieve high encryption efficiency by processing plaintext in the order preserved by an existing compression dictionary already available to a database. Encryption is based upon use of a binary search tree of n nodes, to construct an order-preserving encryption scheme having ?(n) complexity and even O(n), in the average case. A probability of computationally intensive updating (which renders conventional OPE impractical for ideal security) is substantially reduced by leveraging the demonstrated tendency of a height of the binary search tree to be tightly centered around O(log n). An embodiment utilizing such an encryption scheme is described in the context of a column-store, in-memory database architecture comprising n elements.

Abstract: An extension naming approach for avoiding naming collisions in de-normalized view on a business object can include accessing a reference field bundle, which includes reference field(s) corresponding to a core business object defined in a core software platform of a software architecture, from a metadata repository. A user can define an extension to the business object based on the core business object, for example via a development environment. The reference field(s) can include a defined path from a node in a peripheral object to a corresponding node in the core business object. A unique and reproducible name for the extension field can be generated based on the reference field, and the extension field with the unique and reproducible name can be added to the business object and to a data model of the peripheral object.
