Appl. No.:

12/478749

International Classification:

G06F 3/048

US Classification:

715784, 715783, 715786, 715810, 715833, 715835, 345473, 707705, 707805

Abstract:

A system and a method are disclosed for effectively displaying database records on a device having a display area that is small compared to the underlying data being represented. A simulated catalogue is displayed with cards associated with database records. Detailed information is presented for a record on a card obscuring information related to other records. A user is allowed to swipe on the catalogue causing simulated movement of the cards thereby displaying information associated with a database record previously obscured. The catalogue is moved with an initial velocity determined by the speed of swiping and decelerated based on a drag factor until it comes to a stop and displays information for the record reached. The ability to determine the final record displayed when the catalogue stops allows pre-fetching of the data associated with the record.

Abstract:

A method is provided to display information on a display screen of an electronic device comprising: providing metadata in computer readable storage media that provide indicia of associations between respective subject identifiers and respective subject data items from different ones of multiple categories; and producing a plurality of screen displays that portray the subject identifiers and respective associated subject data items from respective ones of the multiple categories.

International Classification:

G09G 5/00

US Classification:

345654

Abstract:

Effective display of data organized along multiple dimensions on a device having a display area that is small compared to the amount of data being shown in the chart is provided. A three-dimensional object that can be rotated along various axes of rotation is displayed in a particular orientation, displaying information related to a data point. Rotation of the object causes the object to be displayed in a different orientation thereby displaying information related to a different data point. The coordinates of the new data point displayed are determined based on the original coordinates and the direction and amount of rotation of the object. In one embodiment, a data arranged along two-dimensions is associated with a cube that can be rotated vertically or horizontally.

International Classification:

G06F 17/30
G06F 9/38

Abstract:

A system and a method are disclosed for efficiently executing database queries using a computing device that includes a central processing unit (CPU) and a processing unit based on single instruction multiple thread (SIMT) architecture, for example, a GPU. A query engine determines a target processing unit to execute a database query based on factors including the type and amount of data processed by the query, the complexity of the query, and the current load on the processing units. An intermediate executable representation generator generates an intermediate executable representation for executing a query on a database virtual machine. If the query engine determines that the database query should be executed on an SIMT based processing unit, a native code generator generates native code from the intermediate executable representation. The native code is optimized for execution using a particular processing unit.
