Patent number: 7680783Abstract: Systems and methods are described that permit a user to configure an identification strategy at run time to facilitate user input of data. The identification strategy may include a parsing grammar and a search algorithm. The parsing grammar may be used to parse user input, and the search algorithm may be used to search a database for the user input. A configuring user may configure the parsing grammar at run time to accept data in a customized form to suit the user's input style. The search algorithm may be configured accordingly as well.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2006Date of Patent: March 16, 2010Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Gerd Martin Ritter, Volkmar Stegmann

Patent number: 7565376Abstract: In a computing system, an operation is performed on an instance of a data object. One of several persistence models that are available for the data object is identified for the instance using the performed operation, where each of the several persistence models defines how the data object is to be persisted in a database. The instance is stored in the database according to the identified persistence model. The persistence model may be identified at run time in a manner transparent to a user. A first persistence model may be identified for a first instance of the data object and a second persistence model, different from the first persistence model, may be identified for a second instance of the data object. An object instance may later be stored according to another persistence model.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2006Date of Patent: July 21, 2009Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Volkmar Stegmann, Gerd M. Ritter

Publication number: 20070073890Abstract: First data identifying a resource, a calendared appointment associated with the resource, and a participant in the calendared appointment may be received and subsequently associated with second data (e.g., at least one link to information available via a communications network and/or a data file). Thereafter, third data may be transmitted over the communications network to a node associated with the participant to modify the calendared appointment to include the second data. In one variation, data identifying a resource and a calendared appointment associated with the resource may be received via a communications network. Based on such data, a usage statistic may be calculated for the resource based on a length of time of the calendared appointment. Related apparatuses, systems, computer program products are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2005Publication date: March 29, 2007Inventors: Gerd Ritter, Volkmar Stegmann, Hamid Moghaddam, Amit Khanna
