  • Publication number: 20240028614
    Abstract: A system for updating a hypercube includes an interface and a processor. The interface is configured to receive an indication to update a cell of the hypercube. The processor is configured to determine a primary dimension value associated with the cell; determine a group of dependencies based at least in part on the primary dimension value, wherein a dependency of the group of dependencies comprises one or more primary dimension values and a pattern; for the dependency of the group of dependencies, determine a set of source locations based at least in part on the one or more primary dimension values and the pattern; and mark the set of source locations as invalid.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 11467971
    Abstract: Systems and methods for precomputing data and storing cache objects corresponding to the precomputed data are described. A system creates a new cache object when a user interacts with the system. The system precomputes formulas in the newly created cache object by replacing the formulas with corresponding calculated values. The system precomputes the formulas in the background (i.e., the user is not presented with the precomputed values while the user is manipulating the data). The system may persistently store a precomputed version cache object in a dedicated version cache storage for later use. If updates are performed to the structure and/or values of a version represented in a precomputed version cache object, effected parts of the version cache object are invalidated by replacing calculated values with the underlying formulas.

  • Patent number: 11170025
    Abstract: A system for caching includes an interface to receive a portion of a hypercube to evaluate. The hypercube includes cells with a set of the cells having a formula. The system includes a processor to determine term(s) in the formula for each cell of the set of cells; remove from consideration a time dimension and/or a primary dimension for the term(s) in the formula for each cell of the set of cells; determine a set of distinct terms using the term(s); determine whether a total number of terms in the set of cells is larger than a number of distinct terms in the set of distinct terms; and in response to determining that the total number of terms in the set of cells is larger than the number of distinct terms in the set of distinct terms, indicate to cache the set of distinct terms during evaluation.
