Patent number: 9275366Abstract: Example systems and methods of extracting and processing data are described. In one implementation, a method accesses genealogy data (which includes a root node) associated with multiple data sources. The genealogy data is expanded from the root node. The method identifies data objects associated with the genealogy data and identifies a simplification rule to apply to the genealogy data. Data objects in the genealogy data that satisfy the simplification rule are identified by the method. A simplified representation of the genealogy data is generated by replacing each identified data object with a link to a predecessor data object.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2011Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Karl Christian Roediger, Stefan Siebert, Jan Aalmink, Martin Wolff, Martina Lutz, Harald Rieger, Juergen Wettengl, Carmen Peter, Martin Zieger, Gregor Rleken

Patent number: 7361293Abstract: In a method for producing a trim article (1), the interspace between a sheet-like decorative material (5) and a carrier (3) is foam-filled. There is provision, during foaming, for the decorative material (5) to be pressed sealingingly onto the interior-side surface of the carrier (3) so as to run around the region to be foam-filled. In this case, the discharge of the air to be displaced during foaming can take place through the foam-tight, but, at least in regions, not gas-tight structure of the carrier (3). For this purpose, the carrier (3) can be gas-sealed in regions by the local compression of an intrinsically gas-permeable unprocessed part before introduction into the foaming die. Also disclosed is a trim article capable of being produced according to the method.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2003Date of Patent: April 22, 2008Assignee: Johnson Controls GmbHInventors: Martin Wolff, Birgit Budde, Johann-Georg Werner, Hubert Brueckner, Detlef Walter Juerss, Heinz Dieter Wellen
