Abstract: A method displays a user interface (UI) that includes a flow diagram having a plurality of nodes, receives user specification of a validation rule for a first node of the plurality of nodes in the flow diagram, and determines that an intermediate data set violates the validation rule. In response to determining that the first intermediate data set violates the validation rule, the method identifies errors corresponding to rows in the intermediate data set, and displays an error resolution UI that provides information about the errors. The error resolution UI includes a data flow trace region providing lineage of the errors in the flow. When a user selects an error in the data flow trace region, the data flow trace region is updated to provide the lineage of the selected error, including an updated graphic depiction for the respective error at each visually represented node.

Abstract: A method enables users to resolve errors in a data flow. The method displays a user interface (UI) that includes a flow diagram having a plurality of nodes, receives user specification of a validation rule for a first node of the plurality of nodes in the flow diagram, and determines that an intermediate data set violates the validation rule. In response to determining that the first intermediate data set violates the validation rule, the method identifies errors corresponding to rows in the intermediate data set, and displays an error resolution UI that provides information about the errors. The error resolution UI includes a natural language summary region providing a synopsis of the errors, an error profile region graphically depicting the errors, a data flow trace region providing lineage of the errors in the flow, and a data region displaying data for a subset of columns from the intermediate data set.

Abstract: A method is provided for displaying a page formed of discrete elements, such as a Web page, on different computing devices. The method converts the page into a semantic thumbnail, which preserves the overall appearance of the page and displays readable text segments that enable a user to identify main areas of the page. The semantic thumbnail is adaptable to different screen sizes and target font sizes. The method enlarges unreadable text segments in a miniature version of the page. The method also trims the enlarged text segments to fit the width of the semantic thumbnail by summarizing or cropping text in the enlarged text segments.
