  • Patent number: 7756978
    Abstract: A multiplicity adjustment agent collects request information database from a sub-system including an element of a system to be monitored. An individual sub-system's multiplicity adjustment server sorts and merges request information collected from each sub-system for each element/request path. An integrated multiplicity analysis server calculates a necessary multiplicity on the basis of the request information.

  • Publication number: 20070005619
    Abstract: In an MD schema definition modifying process for specifying tables to be modified in terms of addition of columns or the like when modification such as addition of a dimension is applied to an MD schema in a BI system having a fixed model such as a data model, tables to be modified in terms of addition of columns or the like are specified on the basis of information of modification such as addition of the dimension to the MD schema. In an extraction process of modification candidate tables, all combinations of tables and columns to be modified in terms of addition of columns or the like are output. In a decision process of modification target tables, a combination of tables to be modified can be output.

  • Patent number: 7152067
    Abstract: A definition tool of the present invention declares columns which are concealed in external tables to a multi-database server. The multi-database server controls a decomposition and an execution of query messages such that the multi-database server does not perform an arithmetic using the concealed columns. The external database server encrypts the data of concealed columns in tables of query result tables. The multi-database server designates a range to be decrypted at the time of acquiring and integrating respective result tables. A client program acquires an integrated result table and decrypts the designated range. Since the data encrypted by the external database server is decrypted by and is referred to the client program, it becomes difficult for the multi-database server to refer to a content of the concealed columns.

  • Publication number: 20050268218
    Abstract: A form transmitting unit 112 of an application server 110 creates as-saved form information containing form information by required form type and check information for verifying input data and downloads it to a client personal computer 130 of a requesting client. A form uploading unit 133 uploads form data containing the as-saved form information received and input data inputted off line to be added thereto, to the application server 110. A form receiving unit 115 checks the received form information as required and the input data using the check information.

  • Patent number: 6882994
    Abstract: The present invention provides techniques for answering a user's query to a database system. An embodiment provides a database querying method in which a first data item is obtained from a Data Base Management System (DBMS) database table in response to a query request. A second data item is obtained by referencing a DBMS updated log file, having log data associated with the first data item, for example a timestamp. The first and second data items are then integrated and returned as an integration result to the query request. In one embodiment the first and second data items are integrated in a virtual table in accordance with a predetermined business rule.

  • Patent number: 6708183
    Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a scheme for distributing spatial information between information providers and information users. To achieve this object, the present invention creates a corresponding index for each spatial information. The index includes information related to a position included in spatial information, and data related to a storage location of the spatial information. This index also includes (1) a source ID for uniquely identifying spatial information; (2) coordinate translation values which are parameters used to correspond certain spatial information to other spatial information; and (3) when the spatial information including this index was created by referencing other spatial information, an underlay diagram specifying ID represented by the source ID possessed by the referenced spatial information, or the like.

  • Publication number: 20020055921
    Abstract: There is provided units for managing and defining a virtual table access privilege, an integration-target-DB access privilege, and access-privilege mapping information for making the connection between them. A processing unit for performing the access-privilege decision on the level of the virtual tables by using the definition contents of the information, and a processing unit for converting the virtual table access privilege into the integration-target-DB access privilege are provided. System structuring working on the AP (application) side and that on the integration-target DBMS side can be carried out easily in parallel to reduce the load imposed on the system structuring working.

  • Patent number: 6381612
    Abstract: A link information management method which is capable of reducing the number of steps of a link maintenance processing of link information indicating a corresponding relationship between geographical information in a geographical information system and attribute information. To realize the method, geographical information are compared and judged by translating first geographical information based on corresponding points judged as the same points inputted on first and second geographical information by an operator. Further, update days of link information and attribute information are compared and judged, and current link information which causes the second geographical information and the attribute information to be correlated with each other is generated based on the compared and judged results of the link information and the attribute information. Then, attribute information and a closed area on the second geographical information are displayed by using the current link information thus generated.
