Abstract: A method, a system, and a computer readable article of manufacture tangibly embodying computer readable instructions for executing a computer implemented method for automatically evaluating the quality of a medical record. The method includes: generating temporary facts from a medical record to be evaluated; constructing a query to a knowledge base of standard facts of standard medical records from the temporary facts; executing the query to the knowledge base by using a reasoning engine; and determining the quality of a medical record to be evaluated based on the result of the query.

Abstract: A method, device and system for transforming a concept-based query into SQL query statements, that includes transforming inputted concept-based queries into logic rules, checking validity of the logic rules, optimizing the valid logic rules, and translating the logic rules into SQL query statements in accordance with the optimization result.

Abstract: A method for caching terminology data, including steps of: receiving a terminology request; determining that the terminology request is related to at least one uncached terminology concept; retrieving a complete concept set of the terminology concept as a cache unit, wherein the complete concept set includes the terminology concept, all other terminology concepts which are directly correlated or indirectly correlated through a non-transitive relationship to the terminology concept, properties of each terminology concept, and the non-transitive relationship between each terminology concept; retrieving transitive relationship information for the complete concept set, the transitive relationship information at least including identifiers of terminology concepts which are correlated through the transitive relationship to each terminology concept in the complete concept set; and caching the cache unit and the transitive relationship information of the cache unit. A corresponding device caches terminology data.

Abstract: An XML querying method and system for constructing an XQuery/XPath query to a schema variable XML document. The method includes: receiving the query from a client computer; generating a tree structure; and generating, by query rewriting, an XQuery/XPath for the XML document based on the tree structure and configurable query constraints. The system includes: a tree structure generating unit for generating a tree structure; and a query writing unit for generating an XQuery/XPath query for the XML document based on the tree structure and configurable query constraints.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for transforming a concept-based query into SQL query statements, comprising the steps of: transforming inputted concept-based queries into logic rules; checking validity of the logic rules; optimizing the valid logic rules; and translating the logic rules into SQL query statements in accordance with the optimization result. The present invention further provides corresponding transformation engine, database query system and computer program product. The present invention facilitates people to use more descriptive query language to query data stored in relational database. Furthermore, the present invention can automatically generate the correct and efficient SQL query statements so that people's efforts to deal with complex data model are saved significantly.

Abstract: The invention provides a data processing method and system based on a networked relational dimension. An aggregation on the attributes of the entities having networked relations and/or the attributes of the relations between the entities is described; a transitive rule of relations between the entities having networked relations is described as a restriction; the aggregation and the restriction are translated into the queries in a database manipulating language. According to the invention, a networked relational dimension can be described by using concise description, and the description can be effectively converted into standard data manipulation language.
