A method for configuring an algorithm for processing data in a database may include generating a plurality of rules by converting a concrete syntax representation of one or more constraints associated with a parameter of the algorithm into an abstract syntax representation of the constraints. A first input value associated with the first parameter may be received from a client via a user interface at the client. The user interface may be updated based on the first input value. The user interface may be updated by applying a first rule from the plurality of rules. The update to the user interface may include a change to a visibility, a modifiability, and/or an allowed value of a second parameter of the algorithm.
