Abstract: XBRL data may be automatically mapped back and forth between an XBRL instance an set of automatically generated flat tables, where each table represents the projection of a single hypercube.

Abstract: XBRL instance data configured according to a given XBRL hypercube specification (or an extension thereof) may be automatically mapped to a multidimensional database configured according to the given XBRL hypercube specification. Such a multidimensional database may be configured for analytical processing of multi-dimensional analytical queries related to the XBRL instance data and/or for analytical processing by a business intelligence tool. Multidimensional data from a multidimensional database may also be automatically mapped to an automatically-generated XBRL hypercube specification structured according to the multidimensional database.

Abstract: Relationships between XBRL hypercubes, including implicit relationships, may be automatically determined based on shared dimensions. Once such relationships are understood, “generic” software (software that is not specific to a particular taxonomy) may be built to provide some or all of the following functionalities: determine, enforce, and/or encourage referential integrity; deduce (graph) ordered relationships between hypercubes; make inferences about those relationships; “join” or “split” hypercubes; create isomorphic and/or homomorphic views of a hypercube for user presentation; and/or assemble and order primary items (attached to hypercubes) in a logical (graph) order.
