Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for generating resource with URI. The methods and systems involve receiving a request for processing a data, the request including an uniform resource identifier (URI), based on the URI, sending the request to an associated resource handler, instantiating set of data resources associated with the URI by calling a resource factory and processing the request by passing the set of data resources to a specific application programming interface for presenting instantiated set of data resources.
Abstract: According to some embodiments, information may be received about a non-relational database object, such as an InfoSet, InfoSet query, or Advanced Business Application Programming (“ABAP”) function for an enterprise resource planning system. The non-relational database object may then be mapped into a relational database model, such as a model associated with a business intelligence platform. As a result, Structured Query Language (“SQL”) inputs from a business intelligence platform may be used create reports based on information in an enterprise resource planning system.
Abstract: Some aspects include reception of a plurality of search results, selection of a graphical format in which to present the search results from a plurality of graphical formats based on metadata of the plurality of search results, and presentation of the plurality of search results in the selected graphical format.

Abstract: A system includes reception of a partial query, determination of one or more previously-selected query phrases based on the partial query, determination, for each of the one or more previously-selected query phrases, of a dataset of a data source, determination, for each dataset determined for each of the one or more previously-selected query phrases, of a plurality of columns, and presentation, for each of the one or more previously-selected query phrases, of the previously-selected query phrase, the dataset determined for the previously-selected query phrase, and the columns determined for the dataset.
Abstract: A computer readable medium includes executable instructions to define an individual publication schema for each heterogeneous source of a set of heterogeneous sources. Each individual publication schema specifies mapping rules between data from a heterogeneous source and a non-permanent structured instance of data. A non-permanent structured instance of data as defined by an individual publication schema is generated. An integration schema defining a set of integration rules for combining data from each non-permanent structured instance of data as defined by individual publication schema is established. A target non-permanent structured instance of data to include data from the plurality of heterogeneous sources based on at least one integration schema is formed.

Abstract: A computer readable storage medium comprises executable instructions to receive a report for access by a user. The report is divided into sections and each section is tokenized based on the user's interests. A section score is calculated for each section in the report. One or more sections are selected for display to the user according to their section scores. The one or more sections are delivered to the user.
Abstract: A method is provided for forming an entity cluster. In this method, a plurality of entities found in one or more data sources are identified. An entity may represent a word or a phrase found in the one or more data sources. The plurality of entities may then be organized into groups, where each group has a master entity and a set of subordinate entities. The groups are formed using a first comparison criteria. Then, using a second comparison criteria, a first group is associated with a second group. The second comparison criteria may compare the master entities associated with the first and second groups. Based on the association between the first group and the second group, the method can then determine that the first entity is related to the second entity.
Abstract: A representative parameterized query in a second database query language is generated from a parameterized query in first database query language. By randomly generating a query in the first database query language, translating this query into the second database query language, and then identifying locations of relevant parameters in the translated query, parameter placeholders can then be substituted at the identified locations to provide a parameterized query in the second database query language. A representative parameterized query in the second database query language can be selected by randomly generating multiple parameterized queries and applying statistical methods including Monte Carlo methods.
Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for synchronizing data present in a target data set with data present in a source data set. The data present in the target data set is partitioned to determine a partition definition of the target data set. A target message digest is calculated for the data present in each partition of the target data set. Based upon the partition definition of the target data set, the data present in the source data set is partitioned. A source message digest is calculated for the data present in each partition of the source data set. The source message digest of a partition is compared with the target message digest of a corresponding partition to capture a change in data present in the source data set. Based upon the captured data, the data in the target data set is synchronized with the data in the source data set.
Abstract: In an embodiment, a method provides a carbon footprint comparison. In this method, a request to compare a first carbon footprint associated with a first user is received. Here, first profile attributes and the first carbon footprint associated with the first user are accessed. Additionally, second profile attributes associated with a second user are accessed. A match of a first number of the first profile attributes with a second number of the second profile attributes is identified. With the match, a strength of the match is calculated based on a number of identified matching profile attributes. A response to the request is then transmitted, and this response comprises the strength of the match and the first carbon footprint.
Abstract: Example systems and methods of providing an application programming interface tracing mechanism are presented. In one example, an application programming interface for an application is provided, the interface including an interface object. A proxy object is created for the interlace object. At the proxy object, method calls from the application for the interface object are received, recorded, and passed to the interface object. An execution trace including the recorded method calls is generated.
Abstract: A computer readable medium includes executable instructions to create a report; augment the report with metadata including a report identifier and parameter information; and export the report and metadata to a non-report electronic document.

Abstract: Various embodiments of methods and systems for recommending tools to a user are based on the verbs and nouns in the user request and a context of the user. The method involves receiving a user request, the user request including a search query with one or more keywords, identifying one or more verbs and nouns in the one or more keywords, based on the one or more verbs, nouns and a context of the user executing the search query to obtain list of tools, ranking the list of tools based on the identified nouns and the context of the user and displaying the list of tools.
Abstract: Some aspects include determination of second document identifiers added to a search index. The search index associates each of a plurality of words with at least one of a plurality of first document identifiers. For each of the second document identifiers, metadata of a document identified by the second document identifier is added to a content store storing metadata of each document identified by the plurality of first document identifiers. In some aspects, the content store comprises at least one flat file, and the metadata is appended to an end of one or more of the at least one flat file.
Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for database consistent sample data extraction are described herein. The technique uses production data as input and outputs sample data in the same relational schema while preserving the integrity of joins of the different tables in the schema. For a given relational schema, the master tables are found. Then a subset is created by placing selection criteria in a query defining how to sample the data for these master tables. Following the joins, the dependent tables are added to the query automatically.
