  • Patent number: 8676831
    Abstract: A master pattern is identified in a target database for use as a template for data entry. The target database is qualified based on one or more database prerequisites. A plurality of similarity patterns is generated based on comparisons of records in the target database. These similarity patterns may be qualified and consolidated based on one or more pre-configured pattern significance guidelines to produce broad and unique patterns that may be used as master patterns. The master patterns may be recommended to the user during data entry in the target database.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20140040198
    Abstract: A data entry template can be associated with each of a plurality of data records that are distributed across a plurality of heterogeneous or homogeneous data sources which can optionally be data bases. The data entry template can be modified to reflect a change to a business process that was previously represented by the template. The change to the business process can be propagated to at least part of the plurality of data records associated with the template. Related systems, apparatus, methods, and/or articles are also described.

  • Patent number: 8024218
    Abstract: Determining product marketability may be accomplished by electronically performing various calculations on related data. The marketability may be determined by a processing device receiving business characteristic terms, industry sub-segment terms and validation terms for each business characteristic term of each industry sub-segment. The processing device calculates one or more criteria terms based on the validation terms and thereupon prioritizes the business characteristic terms based on the criteria data to define at least a first cluster of business characteristic terms. The processing device thereupon calculates a coverage percentage term for each of the industry sub-segment terms based on a comparison of the validation terms for each of the business characteristic terms and the validation terms for each business characteristic term in the first cluster. The coverage percentage term usable for determining product marketability.

  • Patent number: 7730076
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system to receive a first value of a first attribute in a user interface and create a value pattern for a second attribute in the user interface based on the first value dynamically. A second value for the second attribute is automatically proposed from the created value pattern.

  • Publication number: 20060235778
    Abstract: Performance indicators selected for an organization. In some exemplary implementations, a system for selecting performance indicators that are relevant for an organization's business strategies includes a questionnaire tool to present questions to a Graphical User Interface (GUI) user. The system also includes a performance indicator wizard to receive responses for the questions presented in the GUI and to generate a list of recommended performance indicators and optional performance indicators for the organization.
