  • System and program for joining source table rows with target table rows
    Patent number: 8655877
    Abstract: Disclosed is a data processing system, and an article of manufacturing for use with the data processing system. The data processing system joins rows associated with a column of a source table with rows associated with a column of a target table. The data processing system includes a source node containing the source table and including a target node containing the target table.

  • Process for transforming and consulting directed and attributed multigraphs based on the use of maps and bitmaps
    Patent number: 8312052
    Abstract: The present invention establishes a process for creating a set of structures that allows efficient storage and subsequent handling. The multigraph is represented using bitmaps with element counters and mappings between values and organized bitmaps to faciliate the handling of the multigraphs. The bits in the bitmaps represent two aspects of the multigraph: 1) indexing of all the objects of the multigraph as a function of their identifiers and 2) connectivity between objects of the multigraph, whether they are vertices or edges. Mappings allow, given a value, accessing the objects of the multigraph which contain such value. Multigraph operations are solved by accessing the mappings and applying logical operations on the bitmaps. This way of representing a graph allows efficiently performing graph operations such as: inserting a vertex or an edge, inserting an attribute, acquiring the incoming and outgoing edges of an attribute, etc.
