Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for generating generating a rapidly rotatable dimensional view of data objects. A modeling client can host modeling logic and an application programming interface (API) to create, access, manipulate, and import/export modeling objects used in modeling applications, such as engineering, medical, financial, and other modeling platforms. The source data accepted into the modeling client can include consumer or business-level applications, whose spreadsheet, database or other content can be extracted and encapsulated in object-oriented format, such as extensible markup language (XML) format. A set of dimensions of each model object can be associated via a set of linkages. A rotator widget or other interface object can be presented to allow a user to traverse the linkages and rapidly rotate through dimensions in a view, without having to manually switch or configure planes or other database dimensions, enhancing viewing efficiency of large layers.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for generating a set of linked rotational views of a model object. A modeling client can host modeling logic and an application programming interface (API) to create, access, manipulate, and import/export modeling objects used in modeling applications, such as engineering, medical, financial, and other modeling platforms.

A set of layers of the model objects can be associated via a set of linkages. A rotator widget or other interface object can be presented to allow a user to traverse the linkages and rapidly rotate through layers in a view, without having to switch tabs, planes, database dimensions, or manually operate other dimensional control, enhancing viewing efficiency of large layers.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a unified management interface and related resources for managing sets of model objects. A modeling client can host modeling logic and an application programming interface (API) to create, access, manipulate, and import/export modeling objects used in modeling applications, such as engineering, medical, financial, and other modeling platforms. The source data accepted into the modeling client can include consumer or business-level applications, whose spreadsheet, database or other content can be extracted and encapsulated in object-oriented format, such as extensible markup language (XML) format. A graphical control application can be used to manage one or more sets of modeling objects from a unified interface, to permit, for instance, the selection and configuration of the connections, activation status, security settings, and/or other attributes of model objects.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to generating sets of model objects having data messaging pipes. A modeling client can host modeling logic and an application programming interface (API) to create, access, manipulate, and import/export modeling objects used in modeling applications, such as engineering, medical, financial, and other modeling platforms. The source data accepted into the modeling client can include consumer or business-level applications, whose spreadsheet, database or other content can be extracted and encapsulated in object-oriented format, such as extensible markup language (XML) format. A set of modeling objects can be connected via data messaging pipes on a selective basis, so that individual objects can transmit or receive data outputs generated by other objects. The model objects can share, exchange, or combine computational outputs, internal data, and other information from other model object(s). Multiple pipes can be established at various levels or dimensions between objects or groups of objects.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to generating active links between model objects. A modeling client can host modeling logic and an application programming interface (API) to create, access, manipulate, and import/export modeling objects used in modeling applications, such as engineering, medical, financial, and other modeling platforms. The source data accepted into the modeling client can include consumer or business-level applications, whose spreadsheet, database or other content can be extracted and encapsulated in object-oriented format, such as extensible markup language (XML) format. Links can be inserted in the resulting model object to link to external resources, such as additional model objects, services, local or remote modeling tools, or other resources. The model object can share, exchange, or combine data from other model object(s), as well as instantiate functions hosted in other model object(s). Multiple links can be inserted to multiple model objects in linked list, node, or other configurations.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for extracting a data cell transformable to a model object. Aspects relate to object-based modeling using modeling objects that can be extracted from spreadsheet cells, database entries, or other sources. A modeling client can host modeling logic and an application programming interface (API) to create, access, manipulate, and import/export modeling objects used in modeling applications, such as engineering, medical, financial, and other modeling platforms. In aspects, the source data can be accepted into the modeling client from consumer or business-level applications, whose cell, database, or other data content can be extracted and encapsulated in object-oriented format, such as extensible markup language (XML) format. Modeling operations can therefore be performed on or incorporate data that was not originally strictly configured for object-based modeling applications. The extracted model object can also be exchanged with other applications or platforms.

Various model objects can be extracted from source data, and aggregated into a composite model object encapsulating the underlying set of component model objects. In aspects, each of the component model objects can be accessed, updated, and stored independently of the other constituent objects.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for a middleware database hosting dimensional transforms. A set of applications can access a combined data of a set of data sources via a database system. The set of data sources can be configured with diverse dimensions and associated data. The requesting application(s) can generate a request to the database system to extract data in compatible formats for the application(s). In embodiments, the database system can transform selected dimensional data (e.g., company, year, sales dimensions) from the data sources into transformed dimensional data. The requesting application(s) can therefore perform searches, sorts, and/or other operations on the transformed dimensional results.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for application development using middleware. A developer can launch a development request from a client or local network to a remote development server, thereby invoking a set of frameworks and other tools to carry out a desired application build. The development request can specify the type or configuration of the desired application, such as, for example, email, spreadsheet, media playback, or other applications, along with parameters such as target operating systems. The user can assemble desired code from libraries stored in the virtualized middleware framework, and debug the application build against a set of data sources aggregated by the development server. A developer can therefore leverage rapid application development tools at the middleware, without a necessity to invest in local development tools or separately build or locate test data sources.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for the promotion of calculations to cloud-based computation resources. One or more applications, such as spreadsheet applications, can prepare the calculation of a relatively large-scale computation, such as running statistical reports on large (e.g., greater than 1000 by 1000 cell) spreadsheets or other data objects. If the pending calculation is determined to be greater than a computation threshold for instance in computation intensity or data size, a computation request can be sent to a promotion engine. The promotion engine can identify a set of computation resources located in a cloud or other network and transmit the data request and subject data to the set of computation resources, which afford greater computation speed than the local machine hosting the requesting application. A set of results is returned from the cloud to the requesting application, thereby creating higher bandwidth and faster calculation times for the user.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for the hierarchical aggregation of multi-dimensional data sources. A set of applications such as online analytical processing (OLAP) applications can access the combined data of a set of multi-dimensional data sources via a transform engine. The set of data sources can be configured with diverse dimensions and associated data, which in general do not reflect a strictly hierarchical structure. In embodiments, the transform engine can combine or aggregate the set of data sources using common dimensions or data points, and build an index into a transform table reflecting the hierarchical level of dimension from each data source in a combined hierarchical mapping. An OLAP or other application can therefore perform searches, sorts, and/or other operations on the combined hierarchical mapping based on the resulting ordering of data, even when the original multi-dimensional data sources do not contain an explicit common hierarchy.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for the generation of multi-population statistical measures on a set of data sources. A set of applications such as online analytical processing (OLAP) applications can access the combined data of a set of data sources via an aggregation engine. The set of data sources can be configured with diverse dimensions and associated data. In general the data sources may not be expected to reflect a strictly consistent structure. In embodiments, the aggregation engine can combine or aggregate the set of data sources using common dimensions or data points, and build an index into a transform table reflecting a combined mapping. An OLAP or other application can then perform statistical computations, searches, sorts, and/or other operations on the combined mapping, even when the original data sources do not contain identical dimensions or other formats.
