Abstract: Technologies and concepts are described herein for authoring a database query through the modification of a view of the data to be returned by the query. A user interface is provided for authoring a database query through the modification of a view of the data to be returned by the query that includes a view showing the results of a database query. A user interface is also provided for modifying the view to define the results of the query. As the view is modified, a query definition is generated which, when executed against the database, will return the results of the database query shown in the view. When the desired results are shown in the view, the query definition can be saved and run against the database to perform the database query.

Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for allowing a computer system user to extend the functionality of a data-centric software application. The method includes instantiating the data-centric software application, where the data-centric application has portions of business logic categorized and associated with items of data-centric application functionality defined in a schema. The method includes receiving customization input to customize at least one of the portions of business logic. The method includes formulating a representative model corresponding to at least one of the portions of customized business logic. The method includes applying the representative model to the schema to generate a customized schema that extends the business logic of the data-centric software application.

Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products of user-interface architecture for manipulating business models. Embodiments of the invention facilitate efficient generation and extension of business related software applications, including commingled data-centric applications that represent both data elements and business logic in metadata. Modules of the user-interface architecture permit users to enter commands through common metaphors and wizards that abstract underlying (and more complex) modeling commands and data formats from users. The user-interface architecture can automatically search for existing models to provide and extend business related functionality.

Abstract: A system and method for central association and tracking for PCL applications is disclosed. Detection reports are received at a target tracking processing system. The detection reports include measurements correlating to line tracks associated with target echoes in earlier processing operations. In addition, other information, such as parameters and observables, are received by the target track processing system. The target track processing system performs a line track association function and a track filtering function on the line tracks according to the measurements within the detection reports. These operations also predict and estimate target parameters for tracking. Target parameters are extrapolated from the propagated and updated target tracks, and fed to a display for a user, or back into the PCL system for further processing.

Abstract: A fluid driven tank cleaning apparatus which uses part of the cleaning fluid supplied to the device for lubricating the gear train located in a separate compartment. Passageways are positioned and sized so as to maintain the separate compartment substantially filled with the cleaning solution at a relatively low pressure and flow rate therethrough. The device is constructed to minimize the corrosive effects of cleaning fluid on the moving parts.

Abstract: A fluid driven tank cleaning which includes a housing having a fluid receiving chamber, and inlet for connecting the receiving chamber to a source of fluid under pressure, and a secondary chamber separated from the receiving chamber by a common wall as a primary drive shaft rotatably mounted within the receiving chamber. A drive impeller is connected to the primary drive shaft and disposed within the inlet is provided for rotating the primary drive shaft in response to fluid entering the housing. A second drive shaft is rotatably mounted within the secondary chamber. A magnetic drive coupler is provided for magnetically coupling the primary shaft with the secondary shaft such that the secondary shaft will rotate in response to rotation of the primary shaft. A fluid nozzle assembly is rotatably mounted to the housing and is fluidly connected to the receiving chamber. A drive train is provided for rotating the fluid nozzle assembly in response to the rotation of the secondary shaft is also provided.
