Patent number: 11962720Abstract: Interactive dialog communication via callbacks is provided by a dialog execution environment executed in response to a selection of a first user interface element in a panel execution environment. The dialog execution environment receives a first set of information including a callback method. A dialog includes a second user interface element selectable to show a second set of information. To obtain this information, the dialog execution environment sends a request for the second set of information to the panel execution environment via the callback method. The panel execution environment sends a request for the second set of information to a server and receives a response including the second set of information. The dialog execution environment receives a response including the second set of information from the panel execution environment and provides the second set of information in a user interface of the dialog.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: BUSINESS OBJECTS SOFTWARE LTDInventors: Stephane Coze, Laurent Le Floch

Patent number: 11842024Abstract: Embodiments may be associated with a user interface design for an application. An intelligent user interface platform may collect user experience data associated with a user's interactions with the application over time (e.g., user actions, touchscreen interactions, computer mouse clicks, attention information, context information, etc.). The intelligent user interface platform may then analyze the user experience data (e.g., looking for most visited interface locations, most used actions, infrequently accessed functions, common user mistakes, etc.). The intelligent user interface platform may also automatically create a user interface design adjustment based on the analysis. For example, the user interface design adjustment might be associated with a menu item, a sub-menu item, an application action, an icon location, adding a display element, removing a display element, etc.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2020Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: BUSINESS OBJECTS SOFTWARE LTD.Inventors: Arnaud Nouard, Raphael Geoffroy

Patent number: 11816320Abstract: Computer-readable media, methods, and systems are disclosed for displaying paginated growing widgets. At generation time, a pagination service negotiates widget bounds. The pagination service transmits proposed bounds and a starting index to the growing widgets and receives a number of items that can be displayed as well as updated bounds for all items that can be displayed. The pagination service creates a cache entry including a widget identifier, updated widget bounds, and a starting and ending widget data item index. If a particular page is not present in the widget pagination cache, the pagination service performs another bounds negotiation. At display time, the pagination service instructs each of the paginated growing widgets to render updated widget data items based on a corresponding widget pagination cache entry, without reprocessing a document object model associated with a front-end application on which the paginated growing widgets are displayed.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2023Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: BUSINESS OBJECTS SOFTWARE LTD.Inventors: Alain Bonnamy, Christophe Ricard

Patent number: 11809444Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to linked filter groups for linking a driver element of a user interface to a receiver element of the user interface such that data filters applied to driver element are propagated to the receiver element. A first linked group may include a first set of filters for a first visualization of the driver element and a first set of element identifiers of other elements in the user interface, including a first identifier of a first receiver element. When updating visualizations of the receiver element, the first set of filters of the first linked group may be aggregated with a second set of filters of the first receiver element based on the receiver element being a member of the first linked group. As such, the updates to the receiver element are based on both sets of filters.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2019Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: BUSINESS OBJECTS SOFTWARE LTDInventors: Xin Qiu, Fangzhou Yin, Ivan Cheng, Yang Jin, James Lloyd

Patent number: 11734864Abstract: Using approximated bin intervals to label the histograms provides clarity and allows for the histogram to be more intuitively understood. A dataset may comprise a plurality of records having a plurality of features including one or more continuous features. A selection of a continuous feature may be obtained. A bin width based on a number of bins and feature statistics of the continuous feature may be determined. An approximated bin interval range is determined by applying a bin mask based on the bin width to the feature statistics. An approximated bin width is determined based on the number of bins and the approximated bin interval range. Approximated bin intervals for the histogram are determined based on the approximated bin width. A histogram is generated having bins with intervals based the approximated bin intervals.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2021Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignee: BUSINESS OBJECTS SOFTWARE LTDInventors: Paul O'Hara, Malte Christian Kaufmann, Esther Rodrigo Ortiz, Conor White

Patent number: 11733889Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems and methods for generating names for cloud storage containers. A unique identifier associated with a user of the client device is received from the client device. Next, a hash value is generated based on the unique identifier associated with the user of the client device. A character encoding scheme is then used to encode the hash value into a first encoded value. Instances of a first character in the encoded value is replaced with a defined second character to form a second encoded value. Finally, the second encoded value is sent to a cloud storage service for the cloud storage service to create a storage container using the second encoded value as a name of the storage container.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2021Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignee: BUSINESS OBJECTS SOFTWARE LTDInventor: Ehsan Tavakoli

Patent number: 11727030Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for automatically detecting hot areas in heat map visualizations. One example method includes identifying a two-dimensional heat map. The identified two-dimensional heat map is converted to a one-dimensional heat map. Cells of the one-dimensional heat map are clustered using a density-based clustering algorithm to generate at least one dense region of cells. A mean value of cells in each dense region is calculated and the dense regions are sorted by mean value in descending order. An approach for identifying hot areas is selected and the selected approach is used to identify at least one dense region as a hot area of the one-dimensional heat map.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Business Objects Software Ltd.Inventors: Ben Murphy, Ying Wu, Paul O'Hara, Emmet Norton, Malte Christian Kaufmann, Orla Cullen
