  • Publication number: 20080104091
    Abstract: A method and computer-executable program code for displaying data in a table having columns, rows and a plurality of cells defined by the columns and rows. The method involves the steps of creating a first and a second sub-tables positioned one above another or side-by-side. The top sub-table defines a non-scrollable, fixed header, while the bottom table defines a scrollable data table. The top table has a visible part and a hidden part, which contains records copied from a maximum width cell in the top or bottom table corresponding to each individual column. To form a fixed sidebar, the code computer-executable program code adjusts the height of the rows based on the parameters of a maximum height cell in the row.

  • Publication number: 20040015975
    Abstract: An interface for a distributed processing framework (DPF) is disclosed. The distributed processing framework (DPF) can manage the execution of a process utilizing cross-platform dynamically networked distributed computer system. The interface to the distributed processing framework (DPF) can be implemented as a graphical user interface. The graphical user interface allows users to conveniently communicate with the distributed processing framework. The graphical user interface can provide users with customized menus. Accordingly, the user can conveniently make selections and submit a request for processing.
