摘要： A database query optimizer for a computer system having dynamically configurable logical partitions generates an optimized query strategy which is dependent on a logical partition configuration. When the query is executed, the configuration of the logical partition in which the query is executed is compared to the logical partition configuration for which the query was optimized. If the configurations are different, a new query can be automatically generated. Optimizing database queries to the current system configuration of a dynamic, logically partitioned system potentially offers greater efficiency in the execution of database queries for complex, logically partitioned systems.

摘要： A method, system and article of manufacture for query building and, more particularly, for building query conditions for queries against data in a database. One embodiment comprises receiving user input for constructing a first query condition of a query. Then, user-selectable elements to display for constructing a second query condition of the query are identified. Which user-selectable elements are identified is dependent on the first query condition. The identified user-selectable elements for constructing the second query condition are displayed. Then, user selection of one or more of the displayed user-selectable elements for constructing the second query condition is received. The first and second query conditions define selection criteria for selection of a specific set of the data from the database. The selection criteria are programmatically modified in response to construction of the second query condition on the basis of one or more predefined modification rules, whereby the specific set of the data is altered.

摘要： Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for enhancing abstract queries by utilizing conditional modifiers with logical fields are provided. Conditional modifiers allow for the referencing of multiple physical fields via a single logical field. Further, conditional modifiers facilitate the ability to specify, on an instance by instance basis, which physical field or combination of physical fields a particular logical field should reference.

摘要： A method, system and article of manufacture for linking logical fields abstractly describing data in a database and, more particularly, for creating an abstract query using linked logical fields. One embodiment provides a method of linking logical fields abstractly describing data in a database. The method includes creating link information for a first logical field from the plurality of logical fields. The link information identifies at least one second logical field from the plurality of logical fields and an associated link type operation. The first and second logical fields are linked using the link information.

摘要： A method, system and article of manufacture for processing queries that are executed against a database and, more particularly, for processing aggregation queries that are executed against a database. One embodiment provides a method of constructing queries selectively capable of returning aggregation information related to data in a database. The method comprises receiving user input specifying at least one result criterion for an abstract query comprising one or more logical fields, each corresponding to a logical field specification of a data abstraction model abstractly describing the data in the database, each result criterion corresponding to a logical field for which data is to be returned, receiving user input specifying selection criteria for the abstract query, receiving user input specifying an aggregation operation to be performed with respect to the at least one result criterion for generating aggregation information, and associating the at least one result criterion with the aggregation operation in a manner allowing user selection of whether to perform the aggregation operation with respect to the at least one result criterion without requiring user-made changes to the abstract query.

摘要： The present invention generally is directed to a method, system and article of manufacture for controlling the access to data granted to a requesting entity based upon data accessed by the entity in the past. Additionally, embodiments of the present invention allow for access control independent from the particular manner in which the data is physically represented. Generally, abstraction layers are provided to represent various data sources available for use by an application and to compose queries used by the application to access and/or update information contained in these data sources. A runtime component is responsible for resolving an abstract query into concrete data access requests to one or more data repositories using information contained in a data repository abstraction component (one of the abstraction layers). Typically, data is organized into a series of domains. Within each domain, data is associated with an account. User activity is monitored, and when data associated with one account is accessed, a user may subsequently be prohibited from accessing data from a related account within the same domain.

摘要： A method, system and article of manufacture for processing rule sets and, more particularly, for processing abstract rule sets having one or more abstract rules. One embodiment provides a computer-implemented method of generating recommendations using a suitable rules engine. The method comprises retrieving an abstract rule having a conditional statement and a consequential statement. The consequential statement defines a particular recommendation that is returned when the conditional statement is satisfied. The conditional statement and the consequential statement are defined using logical field definitions defined in an abstraction model that models underlying physical data in a manner making a schema of the physical data transparent to a user of the abstraction model. The method further comprises transforming the abstract rule into a transformed rule; and executing, by the rules engine, the transformed rule. If the conditional statement is resolved to true for the executed transformed rule, the particular recommendation is returned.
