  • DYNAMIC CACHE REBINDING OF PROCESSED DATA
    Publication number: 20110202831
    Abstract: Generating a report involves phases such as (a) database queries or other raw data accesses, (b) calculations such as data grouping, sorting, filtering, aggregation, (c) data presentation layout, (d) data formatting, and (e) rendering. When generating a modified version of a report, reusable interim results for phases (b), (c), and (d) are identified and retrieved from a cache instead of being recalculated. Newly calculated interim results are also cached for possible future use.
