  • Context-based evaluation of equations
    Patent number: 8887136
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a system that facilitates the evaluation of an equation. During operation, the system obtains one or more data-access functions to be used in the equation. Next, the system obtains an analysis context for the equation separately from the data-access functions. The analysis context may include one or more analysis parameters that specify one or more data sources and/or types of analysis to be used in evaluating the equation. Finally, the system evaluates the equation using the data-access functions and the data sources.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 4, 2010
    Date of Patent: November 11, 2014
    Assignee: Synopsys, Inc.
    Inventors: Christian M. R. Delbaere, Anil P. Balaram
  • Generating equations based on user intent
    Patent number: 8887083
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a system that facilitates the creation of an equation. During operation, the system obtains a user selection of a function to be used in the equation. Next, the system determines a state of a graphical user interface (GUI) associated with a software program. More specifically, the system may determine a cursor position or a text selection in the equation. Finally, the system facilitates the creation of the equation by inserting the function into the equation based at least on the determined state.
