  • Patent number: 8762969
    Abstract: Immutable structures are employed to effect immutable parsing. In particular, an immutable parsing configuration, comprising a stack and lookahead buffer, is utilized by a parser to perform lexical and syntactical analysis of an input stream and optionally output an immutable parse tree or the like. Performance with respect to the immutable structures can be optimized utilizing sharing and lazy computation. In turn, immutability benefits are afforded with respect to parsing including safe sharing amongst services and/or across multiple threads as well as history preservation, among other things.

  • Patent number: 8705746
    Abstract: A system that enables a cloud-based data repository to function as a secure ‘drop-box’ for data that corresponds to a user is provided. The ‘drop box’ can be facilitated through the use of cryptographic keying technologies. For instance, data that is ‘dropped’ by or on behalf of a particular user can be encrypted using a public key that corresponds to a user-specific private key. Thus, although the data resides within the large pool of ‘cloud-based’ data, it is protected since it can only be decrypted by using the private key, which is kept secret. The innovation can further facilitate user-centric secure storage by partitioning the cloud-based repository into multiple partitions, each of which corresponds to specific indexing criteria.

  • Publication number: 20140067871
    Abstract: Evaluating an expression tree. A method includes, at a first domain, accessing an expression tree. The expression tree comprises a plurality of nested expressions. The plurality of nested expressions spans a plurality of domains. The expressions in the expression tree are expressed in a common format in spite of the different expressions of the expression tree being intended to be evaluated by different domains. At the first domain, the method includes evaluating one or more references to local variables included in the plurality of nested expressions. The method further includes determining that one or more expressions in the plurality of expressions are to be evaluated by a different domain. The method further includes expanding the one or more expressions in the plurality of expressions to be evaluated by different domains to allow the one or more expressions to be evaluated by the different domain.

  • Publication number: 20130275434
    Abstract: A system enables metadata to be gathered about a data store beginning from the creation and generation of the data store, through subsequent use of the data store. This metadata can include keywords related to the data store and data appearing within the data store. Thus, keywords and other metadata can be generated without owner/creator intervention, with enough semantic meaning to make a discovery process associated with the data store much easier and efficient. Usage of or communication regarding a data store are monitored and keywords are extracted from the usage or communication. The keywords are then written to otherwise associated with metadata of the data store. During searching, keywords in the metadata are made available to be used to attempt to match query terms entered by a searcher.

  • Publication number: 20130268552
    Abstract: A data broker observes datasets that are opened or created by a user. The data broker looks for related datasets in a data catalog. If a related dataset is found, the data broker asks the user if they want to access the related dataset. If the user is interested, then the data broker asks the data owner if they are willing to share access to the related dataset with the user. The data owner may deny access, allow access, or request the user's identity. If the user does not want to provide his or her identity, then access to the related dataset is denied. If the user does provide his or her identity, then the data owner determines whether or not to share the data with that user. Once the owner approves sharing the related dataset, then the dataset or a link to the dataset is sent to the user.

  • Publication number: 20130268531
    Abstract: In one embodiment, datasets are stored in a catalog. The datasets are enriched by establishing relationships among the domains in different datasets. A user searches for relevant datasets by providing examples of the domains of interest. The system identifies datasets corresponding to the user-provided examples. The system them identifies connected subsets of the datasets that are directly linked or indirectly linked through other domains. The user provides known relationship examples to filter the connected subsets and to identify the connected subsets that are most relevant to the user's query. The selected connected subsets may be further analyzed by business intelligence/analytics to create pivot tables or to process the data.

  • Patent number: 8549506
    Abstract: APIs are provided, that are external to a programming language but that provide functionality that can be plugged into a language compiler. The provided APIs tailor functionality associated with asynchronous programming, iterators or writing symmetric co-routines using a generalized pattern-based approach. Several types of resumable methods are provided in the APIs which can be applied to method bodies written in traditional program code. Syntactically distinguishable control points in method bodies written in traditional program code invoke transformation of the code by the compiler using the external APIs. The transformed code enables the pausing and resumption of the code sandwiched between control points in the transformed code. The source code contained within a method having control points in it is transformed so that code within the method can be executed in discrete parts, each part starting and ending at a control point in the transformed code.

  • Patent number: 8533693
    Abstract: An architecture that that extends conventional computer programming languages that compile into an instance of an extensible markup language (XML) document object model (DOM) to provide support for XML literals in the underlying programming language. This architecture facilitates a convenient short cut by replacing the complex explicit construction required by conventional systems to create an instance of a DOM with a concise XML literal for which conventional compilers can translate into the appropriate code. The architecture allows these XML literals to be embedded with expressions, statement blocks or namespaces to further enrich the power and versatility. In accordance therewith, context information describing the position and data types that an XML DOM can accept can be provided to the programmer via, for example, an integrated development environment.
