Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to a computing device and methods for generating baselines of a data structure to enable selective reversion or editing of the data structure. A baseline may define a materialization of the data structure and may include pointers to immutable edit revisions associated with that materialization. The computing device may determine one or more change commands implemented to change a data structure from a first baseline to a second baseline. In response to receiving a request to revert at least part of the data structure from the second baseline to the first baseline, the computing device may identify the change command that was implemented to change that part of the data structure from the first baseline to the second line and may perform an inverse of the change command to revert that part of the data structure to a state corresponding to the first baseline.

Abstract: Methods and systems for extracting targeted data for real-time reporting are discussed. In an example, a system can include a data store, a server, and a denormalized database. The data store can maintain data created by an application. The server can be communicatively coupled to the data store. The server can include a data extraction module and a data compression module. The data extraction module can extract a subset of the data stored in the data store according to an extraction scheme. The data compression module can compress the extracted subset of the data into a set of aggregated key value pairs. The denormalized database can store the aggregated key value pairs.

The memory may store an application having a media share component operative to share a media file among a defined set of users. The media share component may comprise multiple software modules, including a file manager module and a file reference module. The file manager module may be operative to determine a network storage location for the media file. The file reference module may be operative to automatically generate a valid link to the network storage location for the media file. The valid link may be specifically arranged to permit access to the network storage location for the media file by the defined set of users of the application. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A method and system generate an inferential network. Records of searches of a network of linked nodes are stored. Each of the nodes is connected to another one of the nodes by a link. Further, each of the records includes: 1) search terms used in a corresponding search; and 2) results of the corresponding search. The results correspond to nodes of the network. The stored records are analyzed to infer relationships between pairs of nodes of the network. Each of the relationships is inferred from the behavior of one of the nodes of a pair of nodes relative to the other node of the pair of nodes. Inferential nodes corresponding to the nodes of the pairs of nodes are generated, and inferential links between the inferential nodes are generated. The inferential links correspond to the inferred relationships.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for increasing the efficiency of data conversion in a coprocessor by using the statistical occurrence of data patterns to convert frequently occurring data patterns in one conversion cycle. In one embodiment, a coprocessor system is disclosed containing a converter engine, which includes a parser and a converter, an input buffer, and a result store. The input buffer is configured to transfer a set of source data to the converter engine, which converts the source data from first code format to a second code format, and sends the converted source data to the result store.

Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to a computing device and methods for generating baselines of a data structure, such as a graph. A baseline may define a materialization of the data structure and may include pointers to a set of immutable edit revisions to the data structure that are associated with that materialization. The computing device may receive a request to change a materialization of the data structure defined by a first baseline having pointers to a first set of immutable edit revisions. The computing device may identify a second set of edit revisions to the data structure based at least in part on the requested change and the first set of immutable edit revisions. The computing device may then generate a second baseline defining a second materialization of the data structure, and the second baseline may include pointers to the second set of edit revisions.

Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein provides methods for the forced ordering of a dictionary based on row identifier values. A plurality of concurrent transactions can be handled in an in-memory database. At least one of the transactions can include at least one write operation to a dictionary. Each write operation can be assigned a row identifier (ID). At least one of the write operations can be written to the dictionary out of sequence. The sequence can be based on the row ID. Each row ID in the dictionary can be mapped to a corresponding value identifier in the dictionary. The dictionary can position the value identifiers so that the corresponding row IDs are in a sorted sequential order based on the row ID. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.

In a preferred embodiment, the eXtensible on-line analytical processing (XOLAP), is a scalable client/server platform that allows the multi-dimensional analysis of modern data types, as well as traditional relational data, by bringing them all into an internal common XML-based model, without the time and expense of creating a data warehouse.

Abstract: A computing system and platform uses various types of data stores to allow efficient querying of, and accelerated access to, extremely large data sets. One such data store is a dimension store that combines key-value and columnar stores, access to which is provided by several selectable mechanisms chosen based the nature of the data of interest. These include bitmap-based access, us of an optimized columnar data format, and access via namespace identifiers. A compressed, optimized page data format is provided for storing and analyzing large fact-based data. The complex dimension store is used to provide complex relationships and interpretation of the fact-based data, enabling high-performance advanced queries, with bitmap indexes passed between the two stores. Dimension data is stored in an encrypted manner throughout the system, and can be exchanged among parties in a secure manner.
