Abstract: An object oriented search mechanism extracts structural metadata and data based on type of document contents and data sources connected to the documents. Relationships between textual and non-textual elements within documents as well as metadata associated with the elements and data sources are utilized to generate a unified object model with the addition of semantic information derived from metadata and taxonomy, which are used to enhance search indexing, ranking of search results, and dynamic adjustment of result rendering user interface with fine tuned relevancy. Additional data from data sources connected to the documents may also be used to unlock hidden data such as data that has been filtered out in an original document.

Abstract: Architecture for handling large data selections with small and substantially constant memory footprints. The architecture facilitates the creation of sets of data objects (e.g., rows) of a data source based on selection of the data objects. The set structures can be defined according to a range (span) of data objects selected and a pattern of the objects selected. These set structures are then saved in memory, rather than the data objects, to provide optimized memory usage. In a database implementation, the solution stores the set representation (the structure) in nearly a constant amount of memory, regardless of the number of rows in the grid, and regardless of the number of rows selected. Memory usage can be proportional to the number of discontinuous spans of rows selected by the user. Structures in memory can be consolidated, replaced, or eliminated dynamically as the user changes row selections and pattern criteria.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for defining the scope of a sub-cube based upon a database query. A request is received to perform a query of a multi-dimensional database, such as a cube, stored at a server computer. In response to the request, the scope for a sub-portion, called a sub-cube, of the multi-dimensional database is determined based upon the query. The scope of the sub-cube may be determined by identifying the minimum sub-portion of the cube necessary to perform the query. Once the scope has been determined, the sub-cube is generated at the server computer and transmitted to a client computer. The client computer stores the sub-cube locally and performs the requested database query on the sub-cube stored at the client computer. A user interface may be provided through which a user can modify the scope of the sub-cube determined based upon the query.
