The transmission on the uplink may be performed from one of an autonomous transmission mode and a scheduled transmission mode, and the transmission parameter may be at least one of a priority indication parameter related to class priority of a service class of data to be transmitted on the uplink, and a radio channel condition.

An improved method of and a system for managing data elements in a multidimensional database (MDB) supported upon a parallel computing platform using modular-arithmetic based address data mapping (i.e. translation) processes on integer-encoded business dimensions. The parallel computing platform has a plurality of processors and one or more storage volumes for physically storing data elements therein at integer-encoded physical addresses in Processor Storage Space (i.e. physical address space in the one or more storage volumes associated with a given processor). The location of each data element in the MDB is specified in MDB Space by integer-encoded business dimensions associated with the data element. A data loading mechanism loads the integer-encoded business dimensions and associated data elements from a data warehouse. The address data mapping mechanism performs a two part address mapping processing. The first step maps the integer-encoded business dimensions associated with each data element to a given processor identifier (which uniquely identifies the processor amongst the plurality of processors of the parallel computing platform). The second step maps the integer-encoded business dimensions associated with each data element into an integer-encoded physical data storage address in Processor Storage Space associated with the processor identified by the processor identifier generated in the first mapping step. The mapping performed in this second step is based upon size of the integer encoded business dimensions. The data management mechanism manages the data elements stored in the storage volumes using the integer-encoded data storage addresses generated during the two-part address data mapping process. The use of modular-arithmetic functions in the two-part address data mapping mechanism ensures that the data elements in the MDB are uniformly distributed among the plurality of processors for balanced loading and processing. The present invention can be used to realize (i) an improved MDB for supporting on-line analytical processing (OLAP) operations, (ii) an improved Internet URL Directory for supporting on-line information searching operations by Web-enabled client machines, as well as (iii) diverse types of MDB-based systems for supporting real-time control of processes in response to complex states of information reflected in the MDB.

A system and method is described for effective management of a User Interface (UI) of a wireless device by implementing direct mapping between the application data domain and UI screens and controls. The device has an intelligent wireless device runtime environment (Device Runtime) that provides a set of basic services to manage the wireless application, including a series of linked screen and data component definitions, and their interactions can simplify the development effort and reduce resource allocation. The data domain for this category of applications is defined using the atomic data component definitions. The communication between a device user interface and data components is defined using atomic screen component definitions. Both screen and data component definitions are described in metadata using a structured definition language such as XML. The relationships between the screen and data component definitions are embedded in the XML definitions in the form of screen / data mappings. Typically, rendered screens for display are derived from some underlying data component and screens controls affected by user events impact the current state (or data representation) of the application Changes to the application domain data are automatically synchronized with the user interface, and user-entered data is automatically reflected in the application domain data. The primary mechanism behind this synchronization is the mapping of screens and data. This mechanism enables creation of dynamic and interactive screens. All changes to the data component can be immediately reflected on the screen and vice versa. This model allows building effective wireless applications based on server-to-device notifications. The data updates asynchronously pushed from the server are instantaneously reflected at the UI screen.

An improved method of partitioning and indexing multi-dimensional data that maps the data to one-dimensional values according to the sequence in which an approximation of a Hilbert space-filling curve passes through all of the points corresponding to potential multi-dimensional data in a data space. Data is partitioned into pages, each corresponding to a length of Hilbert curve. A page identifier is the sequence of the first point on its corresponding Hilbert curve section. The mapping orders data and also orders the data pages that contain data within a database. Mapping multi-dimensional data to one-dimensional values enables the data to be indexed using any one-dimensional index structure. The practical application of the indexing method is made viable and useful by the provision of a querying algorithm enabling data to be selectively retrieved in response to queries wherein all or some of the data that lies within a rectangular space within multi-dimensional space is required to be retrieved. The querying algorithm identifies pages whose corresponding curve sections intersect with a query region. The first intersecting page is found by calculating the lowest one-dimensional value corresponding to a possible multi-dimensional data value or point within the query region, and looking up in the index to find which page may contain this point. The next intersecting page, if it exists, is found by calculating the lowest one-dimensional value equal to or greater than the identifier of the next page to the one just identified. This new lowest one-dimensional, if found, is used to look up in the index and find the next page intersecting with the query region. Subsequent pages to be found, if any, are determined in a similar manner until no more are found. Pages found to intersect the query region can be searched for data lying within the query region.

A data integration method and system that enables data architects and others to simply load structured data objects (e.g., XML schemas, database tables, EDI documents or other structured data objects) and to visually draw mappings between and among elements in the data objects. From there, the tool auto-generates software program code required, for example, to programmatically marshal data from a source data object to a target data object.

An intelligent traffic redirection system performs global load balancing. The system uses a network map that is generated in part by extending a “sparse” IP address data map. In particular, a method of extending an IP address block map begins by defining a set of one or more upper bound block(s). These upper bound blocks are then used to partition a space of IP addresses into subsets or “territories”, wherein each territory represents a largest set of IP addresses to which a piece of mapping data may be extended. The “piece” of mapping data typically consists of a host (usually a “name server” identified by the core point discovery process) IP address and some data about that host, namely, a “nearest” data center or a flag indicating that either “no data” exists for that host or that the system is “indifferent” as to which of a set of mirrored data centers the host should be mapped. A unification algorithm partitions the territory of each upper bound block into the largest possible sub-blocks in which a given unanimity criterion is satisfied and extends the mapping data in each such sub-block to all of the territory of that sub-block.
