Patent number: 12141144Abstract: Whether a logical query plan to derive a target dataset from one or more source datasets is available is determined. Responsive to determining that the logical query plan is not available for the transformation code in the first programming language, relationships between the source columns of the one or more source datasets and the respective target columns of the target dataset are inferred. Target column metadata for a target column of the target dataset is generated. The target column metadata reflects the inferred relationships between the source columns of the one or more source datasets and the respective target columns. The target column metadata for the target column of the target dataset is stored.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2023Date of Patent: November 12, 2024Assignee: Palantir Technologies Inc.Inventors: Christopher Dugan, Aditya Chaturvedi, David Vogelbacher, Jiawei Wu, Natacha Gabbamonte, Joseph Kane

Publication number: 20240070142Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for tracking and enforcing relationships between items. A relationship interface may be provided that conveys the relationship (or link) between items, and through which a user may define the link between two or more items. Identifying a link between two items may establish a set of one or more rules to be enforced with respect to the use of one or both of the items (e.g., when the items are stored, when the items are used to create other items, when other items are associated with the items). In various embodiments, violations of one or more rules may be identified and provided via the user interface. In some embodiments, new items that conflict with one or more rules may be prevented from being committed.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 7, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Jack FISCHER, Advaith ANAND, Andrew JIANG, Christopher DUGAN

Patent number: 11599539Abstract: A logical query plan to derive a target dataset from one or more source datasets is identified. The logical query plan defines source columns of the one or more source datasets and respective target columns of the target dataset. The logical query plan is parsed to derive relationships between the source columns of the one or more source datasets and the respective target columns of the target dataset. Target column metadata is generated for a target column of the target dataset. The target column metadata reflects a derived relationship between one or more source columns and the target column and existing source column metadata of each of the one or more source columns. The target column metadata is stored for the target column of the target dataset.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2019Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: Palantir Technologies Inc.Inventors: Christopher Dugan, Aditya Chaturvedi, David Vogelbacher, Jiawei Wu, Natacha Gabbamonte, Joseph Kane

Publication number: 20060150529Abstract: A protective cover 98 is stored adjacent a right side wall 48 of a structure 42 for use in protecting the structure during adverse weather conditions. A cable 74 is attached to a bar 102 at a leading portion of the cover 98. The cable 74 extends over a roof 52 of the structure 42, and is attached to a reel 64 adjacent a left side wall 50. Lift arms 208 and 208a are located adjacent a front and rear wall, respectively, for pivoting movement about intermediate sections of the front and rear walls. The lift arms 208 and 208a are coupled to the bar 102. As the reel 64 is operated, the cover 98 is pulled toward the structure 42, and the lift arms 208 and 208a raise the cover above the structure.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2006Publication date: July 13, 2006Inventors: Thomas Hogg, Christopher Dugan
