Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090249125DATABASE QUERYING - Data stored in relational databases can be retrieved using a relational database query language, while data stored in a multidimensional database is typically retrieved using a multidimensional database query language. However, most users do not have a functional working knowledge of multidimensional database query languages, which leaves large amounts of data inaccessible. Further, while some relational database query languages may be translated into a multidimensional database language, the information generated by such translations is often unusable, or returns large numbers of errors. In order to obtain effective translation of a relational database query language to a multidimensional database query language effective translation and filtering needs to occur. Using effective mapping and retrieval of database metadata along with effective, customizable business logic filtering of query components, more effective and reliable results may be achieved.10-01-2009

20120033801Wireless Priority Service within a Distributed Call Processing Architecture - A system, method, and call processing component for controlling an order of call processing among a plurality of call processing components. Each call processing component, upon receiving a call request when system resources are not available to process the requested call, creates a real queue entry in its call processing queue and sends a call-queued notification to all other call processing components in the system. The other call processing components in the telecommunication system then create a shadow queue entry in their respective call processing queues as a placeholder for the requested call. When system resources become available and the requested call is next in the queue, the call processing component that received the request de-queues and processes the requested call, and sends a call de-queued notification to the other call processing components. In response, each of the other call processing components removes the placeholder queue entry for the requested call from each call processing component's call processing queue.02-09-2012
