  • Patent number: 9037584
    Abstract: Techniques for dynamic cross-filtering are described. An apparatus may comprise a filter manager component for an application program. The filter manager component is operative to manage cross-filtering operations for the application program. The filter manager component may comprise a filter control module operative to determine a selection state for a filter data element of a first filter component, and a relationship state for the filter data element of the first filter component with a filter data element of a second filter component. The filter manager component may also comprise a filter interface module communicatively coupled to the filter control module. The filter interface module is operative to dynamically display a different visual indicator for the filter data elements based on the selection state and the relationship state, among other filter criteria or filter states. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 8341163
    Abstract: Techniques for filter sharing are described. An apparatus may comprise a shared filter manager component for an application program. The shared filter manager component may be operative to manage shared filtering operations for the application program. The shared filter manager component may comprise a shared filter interface module operative to receive a selection for a shared filter component to filter multiple source data objects, and assign the shared filter component to the multiple source data objects. The shared filter manager component may further comprise a shared filter control module communicatively coupled to the shared filter interface module. The shared filter control module may be operative to filter data from the multiple source data objects using the shared filter component. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
