Abstract: An interactive entity relationship diagram discovers explicitly defined relationships, and also dynamically discovers and represents non-explicit relationships. This entails calculating metadata and references by parsing the queries. An entity relationship diagram thereby provides novel visibility on the queries being related as the basis for a user interface which integrates several configuration utilities.

Abstract: Large and complex data sets can be difficult to view on devices with small screens, such as on smartphones, or in small windows on devices with large screens. The presently disclosed systems, methods and apparatus can determine characteristics associated with a display used to display a requested resource. Based on these determined characteristics, the systems and methods can determine whether the requested resource should be reformatted to fit the display. The requested resource can be reformatted to allow a user to consume complex data on a small display easily and effectively. In some embodiments, this can be done by ensuring that the current data context, previously provided by row/column headers, are always in view in a compact format.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product receive a set of objects for connection, create a moving object within the set of objects, display visual connection cues on objects in the set of objects, adjust the visual connection cues of the moving object and a target object in the set of objects, identify event propagation precedence, and connect the moving object with the target object.

Abstract: Various aspects of this disclosure are directed to displaying, by a computing device, a plurality of components of a graphical user interface. Each of the plurality of components may display one or more members of at least one dimensional level of a database having a plurality of dimensions. Each dimension of the plurality of dimensions may include one or more dimensional levels. The computing device may determine a first dimensional level of a first dimension of the plurality of dimensions having one or more members displayed in two or more of the plurality of components, and may display a control element including an indication of the dimensional level having the one or more members displayed in each of the two or more components.

Abstract: In one example, a method comprises rendering a dashboard assembly user interface comprising a canvas section and a resource section, the resource section comprising one or more resource content elements, and the canvas section comprising one or more dashboard content elements. The dashboard assembly user interface enables resource content elements to be selectably added to the canvas section as dashboard content elements in response to user inputs, thereby configuring a business intelligence dashboard.

Abstract: A database has a plurality of elements, where each element is associated with a location and at least one set of different attribute values, wherein each set includes a timestamp when the attribute values in the set were determined. A determination is made of a reference geographical location, an element having a geographical location within a geographical region including the referenced geographical location, a most recent set of the attribute values for the element having a most recent timestamp, a previous set of attribute values for the determined element comprising the set of attribute values having a previous timestamp prior to the most recent timestamp, and whether a condition with respect to at least one of the most recent set of attribute values and the previous set of attribute values of the determined element is satisfied.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes displaying, in two dimensions, a business analytics report containing various data elements, wherein each data element has data associated therewith. The method further enables generation of a three-dimensional representation of the business analytics report by adding a time axis to the data elements. Once the three-dimensional representation is generated, the method displays, on the time axis, update points identifying when data associated with the data elements was updated. In some cases, depending on the length of the time axis, several update points may be displayed for each data element. A corresponding computer program product and apparatus are also described.

Abstract: In one example, a method includes receiving information on a user role of a user account associated with a business intelligence system. The method further includes gathering information on interactions of the user account with the business intelligence system. The method further includes generating an initial business intelligence output based on data from one or more data sources. The method further includes generating a customized business intelligence output for the user account based on the initial business intelligence output, the user role, and the interactions of the user account with the business intelligence system. The method further includes providing the customized business intelligence output to the user account.

Abstract: A method for changing data context in a business analytics report is described herein. In one embodiment, such a method includes providing a business analytics report, wherein the report contains data and current metadata categories describing the data. The method enables selection of a current metadata category directly on the business analytics report. The method displays a metadata hierarchy associated with the current metadata category. This metadata hierarchy may include the current metadata category as well as related metadata categories arranged in a tree-like structure. The method further enables selection of a related metadata category from the metadata hierarchy to apply to the business analytics report. The method automatically updates the business analytics report with the metadata category and populates the report with the associated data. A corresponding computer program product and apparatus are also disclosed.

Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented method for plug-in re-use in a web page for simulated simultaneous interactive elements, determines whether an interactive element is a plug-in instance on a web page and responsive to a determination that the interactive element is not a plug-in instance on a web page, requests current state information of the interactive element from the web page. The computer-implemented method loads the current state information into an available plug-in instance on the web page, positions and sizes the available plug-in instance on top of the interactive element on the web page and enables interaction with the interactive element.
