Abstract: A system includes a database with a plurality of records, each record including a plurality of data fields. The system receives input from an end user. The end user input is received via an end user interface, and the end user input includes a subset of the plurality of data fields. The system queries the database using the subset of data fields, and data is retrieved from the database using the subset of data fields. The data retrieved from the database substantially include only data fields that are the data fields supplied by the end user. In an embodiment, the retrieved data do not include data fields that are not part of the data fields supplied by the end user.

Abstract: Technologies are provided for validating application models within a database environment. For example, an application model can be provided to a database environment and validated against a meta-schema and/or an application schema stored within the database environment. Successful validation can be required before the application model is allowed to run within the database environment (e.g., before the application model can be stored within the database environment).

Abstract: Computer-implemented prospective planning of personnel costs for an enterprise includes conducting planning preparation to plan the personnel costs, electronically collecting data relating to personnel costs, electronically performing a cost planning run, electronically conducting a detailed analysis of the results to revise and modify the collected data to produce updated results, and reporting the results of the cost planning run.

Abstract: A repository stores a metric catalog. The metric catalog represents a slice of multidimensional data source. The metric catalog includes a selected measure, at least one analysis dimension, and at least one fixed dimension. A metric catalog system exposes the metric catalog as a web service. A web service client requests to consume the metric catalog. In response to the request, the metric catalog system parses the metric catalog. Based on the parsed metric catalog, one or more queries are generated and executed. Based on the execution of the queries, values of the selected measure for the at least one analysis dimension are determined. The determined values of the selected measure for the at least one analysis dimension is returned to the web service client.

Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure include methods, systems, and computer-readable storage mediums for evaluating access control constraints and include actions of receiving an access control request, obtaining a set of attributes based on an abstract evaluation of a policy, the set of attributes including one or more attributes that could be required to evaluate the access control request, requesting respective values of the one or more attributes in a batch request, receiving the respective values, and providing an access control decision based on the respective values and the policy.

Abstract: A system includes a suite of business applications and an add-on module coupled to the suite of business applications. The add-on module is configured with Commerce eXtensible Markup Language (cXML) and is operable to enable the suite of business applications to communicate with a network using cXML and a direct web service call to the network. The network is configured to operate using cXML. The direct web service call uses no middleware between the suite of business applications and the network.

Abstract: An execution framework allows developers to write sequential computational logic, constrained for the runtime system to efficiently parallelize execution of custom business logic. The framework can be leveraged to overcome limitations in executing low level procedural code, by empowering the system runtime environment to parallelize this code. Embodiments employ algorithmic skeletons in the realm of optimizing/executing data flow graphs of database management systems. By providing an extensible set of algorithmic skeletons the developer of custom logic can select the skeleton appropriate for new custom logic, and then fill in the corresponding computation logic according to the structural template of the skeleton.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for automatically checking and acting on one or more claims. Implementations include actions of receiving claim information associated with one or more claims, wherein each of the one or more claims includes a factual claim, processing the claim information based on a domain vocabulary to identify at least one of one or more keywords and one or more categories, for each claim of the one or more claims: identifying one or more facts relevant to the claim, and determining an accuracy of the claim based on the one or more facts generating a confidence score reflecting an overall confidence in the one or more claims based on respective accuracies, and transmitting at least one of the one or more claims and the confidence score for display in a graphical user interface (GUI).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a material handling method of performing by means of an automatic mechanical material handling equipment controlled by a control system at least a first and a second access task for accessing respectively at least a first and at least a second article stored in a material handling storage system, the first and second access tasks having been assigned a first and a second execution priority respectively.

Abstract: A fuzzy database search technique is described for searching a database. The technique first prepares a database by first generating a reference hash value for each database entry to represent a value stored in a field of the database entry. The technique then receives search request to search for database entries in the database that have a value stored in the field that is within a provided range. The technique converts the search request into one or more search hash values and matches the search hash values to the reference hash values of the database to rapidly identify database entries that are likely relevant to the search.

Processing of the business object data to enable storage in the repository continues while generating such indication.

Abstract: A server system may include a request handler and a storage. The request handler may receive at least one request from a program on a user side. The storage may include a first cache and a second cache, storing data in format directly compatible to the program. The first cache stores only data matching to a server. If the at least one request corresponds to a change to the data from the program, then the second cache stores the at least one request and the request handler sends the at least one request to the server for updating the change.

Abstract: Technologies are described for facilitating transaction processing within a database environment having a coordinator node, a first worker node, and at least a second worker node. The first worker node sends a request from to the coordinator node for at least a first synchronization token maintained by the coordinator node. The first worker node receives the at least a first synchronization token from the coordinator node. The first worker node assigns the at least a first synchronization token to a snapshot as a snapshot ID value. The snapshot is executed at the first worker node. The first worker node forwards the snapshot ID value to the at least a second worker node.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are innovations in memory management and data recovery for systems that operate using storage class memory (SCM), such as non-volatile RAM (NVRAM). The disclosed innovations have particular application to production database systems, where reducing database downtime in the event of a system crash is highly desirable. Embodiments of the disclosed technology can address a variety of problems that exist during a system crash. For example, embodiments of the disclosed technology can be used to address the loss of the physical memory mapping and/or the loss of the CPU cache that typically occurs in the event of a system crash. Furthermore, embodiments of the disclosed technology can be used to prevent data inconsistency and/or memory leak problems that may arise in the event of a system crash.
