Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2002526833
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Multi-dimensional data is organized into classes which correspond to each of the dimensions that characterize the data. All relevant data is consolidated into a fact table, which is based upon information of interest. The data within this table is linked to the top level of each class that corresponds to a different dimension of data, and subclasses which exist within a given dimension of class automatically inherit the linked reference to the consolidated data. A user can thereby select search criteria within particular classes that correspond to the dimensions of interest. This search criteria is then used to form a query which is applied to a relational database, to obtain the desired results.
