Patent number: 9280788Abstract: Systems and methods for information retrieval are provided that permit users and/or processing entities to access and define synthetic data, synthetic objects, and/or synthetic groupings of data in one or more collections of information. In one embodiment, data access on an information retrieval system can occur through an interpretation layer which interprets any synthetic data against data physically stored in the collection. Synthetic data can define virtual data objects, virtual data elements, virtual data attributes, virtual data groupings, and/or data entities that can be interpreted against data that may be stored physically in the collection of information. The system and methods for information retrieval can return results from the one or more collections of information based not only on the data stored, but also on the virtual data generated from interpretation of the stored data.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2012Date of Patent: March 8, 2016Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Adam Ferrari, Joshua William Kapell, Jason Furtado, Matthew L. Brandwein, Spiro Michaylov, Omri Traub, Eli Daniel, Vladimir Zelevinsky, Alexander D. Rosen, John Huffaker, Gregory C. Scott, Eugene Jitomirsky

Patent number: 7856434Abstract: A method is disclosed for modifying the results of a search performed in a collection of items by a search and navigation system. The method includes receiving a query from a user interface and determining a navigation state, defined by expressions of attribute-value pairs, based on the received query. The user interface accepts both selecting and deselecting of any of the attribute-value pairs in an expression corresponding to a navigation state to obtain an expression corresponding to a different navigation state, and each selection and deselection forms a new query. The method further includes retrieving, from the collection, items associated with the navigation state to form a set of unmodified search results, the set of unmodified search results having an arrangement for presentation to the user. A rule filter that includes a metadata expression is applied to a set of rules, each rule having a trigger, an action, and metadata.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2007Date of Patent: December 21, 2010Assignee: Endeca Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Vladimir Gluzman Peregrine, Alexander D. Rosen, Benjamin S. Scarlet, Andrew Volpe

Patent number: 7752551Abstract: Embodiments of the invention comprise a design tool for designing an application interface. The design tool includes a graphical user interface (GUI) that visually represents a hierarchy of data and the relationships between the data. Thus, the design tool eliminates the need for an interface designer to have independent knowledge of the structure of the data (i.e., the data fields and relationships between the data). The design tool's GUI represents the data and the relationships between the data in a hierarchical display referred to as a data palette. An output hierarchy comprised of output levels is created as the user selects fields from the data palette to be displayed in the application's interface. When a data field is selected, the design tool automatically determines the appropriate interface component and output level of the output hierarchy using the relationships defined for the data. Output levels are associated with interface components that comprise the application's interface.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2003Date of Patent: July 6, 2010Assignee: Novell, Inc.Inventors: Alexander D. Rosen, Paul H. DiCristina
