  • Publication number: 20130106914
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to displaying data items in a carousel display panel and to efficiently presenting virtualized data in a carousel display panel. In one example, a computer system accesses a list of data items that include at least a first data item and a last data item which are to be displayed in a carousel display panel. The computer system displays the selected portion of data items in the carousel display panel and receives a user input indicating that the last data item in the list is to be displayed in the carousel display panel. The computer system then rotates the data items displayed in the carousel display panel to the last data item. The last data item is thus displayed, along with at least a portion of a second-to-last data item and the first data item in the list.

  • Publication number: 20110231385
    Abstract: An object oriented search mechanism extracts structural metadata and data based on type of document contents and data sources connected to the documents. Relationships between textual and non-textual elements within documents as well as metadata associated with the elements and data sources are utilized to generate a unified object model with the addition of semantic information derived from metadata and taxonomy, which are used to enhance search indexing, ranking of search results, and dynamic adjustment of result rendering user interface with fine tuned relevancy. Additional data from data sources connected to the documents may also be used to unlock hidden data such as data that has been filtered out in an original document.
