  • Patent number: 7853938
    Abstract: An XSLT-based transformation process addresses the performance problems of ordinary XSLT transformations and provides for an efficient conversion of many sources of raw, or interpreted, application data into many different interpretations. In addition, the data may be filtered to downstream users, thus enabling the use of security measures by way of the filters.

  • Publication number: 20090063395
    Abstract: A method is provided for mapping analysis data between a first data analysis tool configured to interpret analysis data expressed in a first format to a second data analysis tool configured to interpret analysis data expressed in a second format. The method comprises receiving a set of analysis data expressed in the first format from the first data analysis tool; receiving an indication of the second format; identifying a set of common analysis data from the set of analysis data using a set of common analysis data properties and a first context, the first context providing a set of rules for expressing the set of common analysis data properties in the first format; and generating a representation of the set of common analysis data in the second format using a second context. The first context provides a set of rules for expressing the set of common analysis data properties in the first format.

  • Publication number: 20040083453
    Abstract: A dynamic application data monitoring architecture may include data collector, data provider, and widget software components. Data collectors convert application data from a native format into data instances having a logical hierarchical structure conforming to a schema which may be an XML schema. Data providers receive data instances from associated data collectors or other data providers and generate other data instances having a different logical hierarchical structure conforming to another schema which may be presentation-centric and may define features of a graphical data display mechanism (e.g. a line graph). The data provider may employ an external transform (e.g. an XSLT). Widgets receive logical, presentation-centric data instances from an associated data source (typically a data provider) and generate therefrom a displayable graphical representation of the received data according to an operative graphical data display mechanism. The data instances may be Document Object Model document instances.
