  • Hierarchical data
    Patent number: 11960507
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for identifying ancestor objects in hierarchical data configured for processing with a query, the query having an associated abstract syntax tree. The abstract syntax tree may be processed so as to generate an augmented abstract syntax tree which includes parent identifiers configured to identify the parent nodes of the query. In this way, a need to pre-parse the data may be alleviated. Instead, the identification of a parent node of a query may be encoded into the abstract syntax tree of the query.
