Patent number: 10628775Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for selecting, processing, and visually depicting information in real time using in-memory technology and user-customizable Sankey diagrams in a graphical user interface. Embodiments receive data describing contact interactions with a business establishment, select interactions occurring frequently during a given time span that led to selected target events, and aggregate similar interaction sequences into paths displayed with widths denoting relative flow quantities. Embodiments modify the depicted information according to user customization of the Sankey diagram. Coherent coordination of visual depiction by context, associated algorithms and models, data sources, event types, and various graphical indicia helps provide an intuitive exploratory situational overview and enables user-driven detailed investigations of complex data via manipulations of the Sankey diagrams.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2015Date of Patent: April 21, 2020Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Alain Gauthier, Mohannad El-Jayousi, Farid Toubal-Seghir, Roy Ghorayeb, Ghufran Iftikhar, James Zdralek, Rischa Poncik, Wanling Zhang

Patent number: 10607176Abstract: Methods and systems of the present disclosure provide techniques for analyzing behavior of and triggering action for a definable group. In an embodiment, a method may identify a group based on a Sankey diagram. For example, a group may include those users belonging to a journey or path of the Sankey diagram. The method may analyze behavior of the group, e.g., whether a group characteristic meets a pre-definable condition. The method may perform an action for the group. In an embodiment, the method may automatically identify group members and/or automatically perform at least one action for the group members based on satisfaction of the pre-definable condition.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2015Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Alain Gauthier, James Zdralek, Wanling Zhang, Ghufran Iftikhar, Rischa Poncik, Roy Ghorayeb, Mohannad El-Jayousi, Farid Toubal-Seghir

Patent number: 10467634Abstract: Methods and systems of the present disclosure provide techniques for selectively providing mined customer data habits as source data to populate a Customer Journey as part of a Sankey diagram displayed on a User Interface. The mined customer data habits are selected for inclusion in the Customer Journey diagram according to at least one of: a user selection according to a mini-map; a modification based on metadata from a user selection; a modification of the available User Interface size according to a screen size; a recognition of content repetition in the Customer Journey; and an identification of sequential patterns as focus points in the Customer Journey diagram. In an embodiment, the method may automatically provide mined customer data habits to a predefined extent. The method may adapt a currently supplied miner customer data habit based on a user selection.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2015Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Alain Gauthier, Ghufran Iftikhar, Farid Toubal-Seghir, Mohannad El-Jayousi, Rischa Poncik, Wanling Zhang, Roy Ghorayeb, James Zdralek

Patent number: 9854052Abstract: A computer implemented method may include requesting details of an object and attachments associated with the object. The attachment details for each attachment may include an attachment name and an attachment ID. In response to a selection of an attachment associated with the object, a determination may be made as to whether a cache already includes the selected attachment. If the cache includes the selected attachment, the selected attachment may be retrieved from the attachment cache. If the cache does not include the selected attachment, the attachment may be downloaded using an attachment URL. The attachment URL may be requested and generated based on the attachment ID. The downloaded attachment may also be stored in the attachment cache.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2013Date of Patent: December 26, 2017Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Rolan Abdukalykov, Wanling Zhang, Vincent LaVoie, Xuebo Liang, Alain Gauthier, Roy Ghorayeb, Mohannad El-Jayousi

Patent number: 9658672Abstract: A reference point on a graphical user interface may be determined. The reference point may be represented by a plurality of coordinates. The graphical user interface may be divided into tile map entities. Information about the tile map entities may be stored into a cache. The stored information may include an origin and dimensions of each tile map entity, and the origin may be represented relative to the reference point. Information needed to position a business object visual representation may be retrieved from the cache. The business object visual representation may be drawn on the graphical user interface based on the retrieved information needed to position the business object visual representation.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2012Date of Patent: May 23, 2017Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Rolan Abdukalykov, Alain Gauthier, Roy Ghorayeb, Vincent Lavoie, Xuebo Liang, Mohannad El-Jayousi

Patent number: 9123030Abstract: Calendar application objects that do no not appear on the screen because of space constraints or other reasons may be associated with an edge of the time period displayed on the screen closest to a virtual location of each respective object in the calendar application. A user selectable indicator may then be displayed for one or more of the edges to indicate the presence of additional objects in the calendar application that are not currently displayed on the screen of the device, but would be displayed if the user were to scroll the displayed time period in the direction of the displayed time period edge associated with a respective indicator. The indicator may include additional data about the objects associated with the edge that do not appear within the time period shown on the screen.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2012Date of Patent: September 1, 2015Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Xuebo Liang, Rolan Abdukalykov, Alain Gauthier, Vincent Lavoie, Mohannad El-Jayousi, Roy Ghorayeb

Patent number: 9081466Abstract: A system and method are described herein that provide for dynamically controlling a chart visualized in a user interface by turning business objects visualized in the chart into clickable action buttons to trigger corresponding business actions. Business objects are retrieved from a backend server and displayed as visual representations in a chart rendered in a calendar application user interface. A user clicking or tapping a visual representation in the chart triggers a corresponding predefined action that has been customized in the connected system or backend server and is dynamically assigned to the chart control based on the business context of the calendar application.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2012Date of Patent: July 14, 2015Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Alain Gauthier, Mohannad El-Jayousi, Roy Ghorayeb, Vincent Lavoie, Xuebo Liang, Rolan Abdukalykov

Patent number: 8832583Abstract: An apparatus and method are described herein that provide for visualizing subsets of grouped business objects in an application for display in a user interface. Business objects are grouped into subsets according to a selected business object attribute value. The business objects are grouped and displayed in a three-dimensional view including a plurality of layers, where each layer represents a subset of the business objects. The application is implemented, for example, as a calendar application. The visual representations associated with the business objects in each subset of data are displayed in each of the layers of the three-dimensional view. A user selectably controls which subset of data to view in the user interface.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2012Date of Patent: September 9, 2014Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Mohannad El-Jayousi, Rolan Abdukalykov, Xuebo Liang, Vincent Lavoie, Roy Ghorayeb, Alain Gauthier
