Patent number: 9886520Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for exposing relationships between universe objects. In some implementations, actions include identifying a universe, the universe including objects at an abstracted layer, automatically processing the objects of the abstracted layer to provide one or more link groups, each link group including a plurality of objects that have some relation to one another, and outputting the one or more link groups.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2013Date of Patent: February 6, 2018Assignee: Business Objects Software Ltd.Inventors: Gilles Vergnory Mion, Olivier Tsoungui, Christian Ah-Soon

Patent number: 9870407Abstract: Business groups are created to secure business entities of a BI data model. In one aspect, a user to be secured is selected and a business group of the BI model is retrieved. Based on the business group, access to a business entity of the BI model is secured. The business group is associated with the business entity it secures. A value of the secured business entity is selected. A user is secured by assigning the user to the business group for the selected value. The value of the secured business entity is assigned to the user. In one aspect, requests from the user to access the secured business entity are filtered based on the assigned, to the user, value of the business entity.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2015Date of Patent: January 16, 2018Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Jean-Yves Yannick Cras, Gilles Vergnory Mion, Damien Guinan, Helmut Petritsch

Patent number: 8423523Abstract: A computer readable storage medium includes executable instructions to derive from a database schema an irreducible ambiguous group comprising a sub-schema with a set of vertices wherein any two vertices are part of a loop. Contexts are defined on the sub-schema. For each context, joins in the sub-schema are designated as mandatory joins, excluded joins and neutral joins. A selection of a context from multiple contexts invoked by a path characterizing a query is processed. The query is resolved using the context.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2008Date of Patent: April 16, 2013Assignee: SAP France S.A.Inventors: Gilles Vergnory-Mion, Jean-Yves “Yannick” Cras, Pascale Mariani, Yann Delacourt

Patent number: 8407215Abstract: A system includes a data structure comprising a plurality of mesh entities, the data structure associating each of the plurality of mesh entities with a respective name and a respective one or more attribute values, and associating each of the plurality of mesh entities with one or more relations to one or more other ones of the plurality of mesh entities. Some aspects include reception of a file comprising text, identification of text entities from the text, identification of first mesh entities from the plurality of mesh entities based on the identified text entities, determination, for each of the first mesh entities, of a name and one or more attribute values, and determination of a relevance associated with each identified text entity based on the determined name and one or more attribute values.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2010Date of Patent: March 26, 2013Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Paul Sheedy, Dan Cristian Marinescu, Alexis L. Naibo, Gilles Vergnory-Mion, Adrien Grand
