  • Method and apparatus for creating a data set with pending results
    Patent number: 6651067
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for creating a data set with pending results are described. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving a user request to process data and processing the user request to begin creating a final result set with at least one field being identified as a pending result field. The processing, in turn, includes creating a portion of an initial result set containing the pending result field before a final value for the pending result field is determined, and transforming the portion of the initial result set to create a portion of the final result set before a final value for the pending result field is determined. The method further includes continuing processing the user request while the final value remains undetermined, and updating the final result set with the final value of the pending result field once the final value is determined.

  • Automated investment fund accounting system
    Patent number: 4933842
    Abstract: A computerized investment plan accounting system manages data for investment plans with multiple participants and multiple investment funds. When a transaction is entered, one side of the transaction (either units or dollars) may be flagged as pended. When the unit value for the fund is determined and stored, the pended side is calculated, stored, dated, and flagged as fixed. Investment fund balances are accumulated by posting the transactions to investment fund accounts. Individual participant fund balances are determined by accumulating transaction data in a multi-dimensional matrix. The participant fund balances are combined for all participants, and the combined totals are compared to the investment fund balances.
