Machine automated techniques are described for a method of data processing called Relationships Processing. A computing system is disclosed which provides for the high speed recording and extraction of data objects (entities) and for the development of data representing a queried relationship between the entities. Furthermore, methods and systems are disclosed to detect mandatory relations violation between entities by examining whether certain relations exist. The system is expandable to handle the relatively voluminous data bases of large commercial data repositories. A user defines a set of entities and allowed relationships between the entities. The user can expand this set of allowed entities and relationships at any time during the life of the system without reprogramming or compiling of computer program code or disrupting concurrent operational use of the system. Large systems can now be built that are no longer limited to the scope of design requirements known during initial system development. For a given set of defined relationships the system allows the user to perform complex inquiries (again without programming at the code level) that would normally require multiple nested inquiries to be coded programmatically and would not achieve the performance levels of the Relationships Processor.

Embodiments are directed to incrementally upgrading an entity-relationship system. In an embodiment, a computer system receives an indication that one instance including its own specified set of entities is to be upgraded to a second instance including a different specified set of entities. The computer system accesses the two instances to determine the differences between the entities of each instance. The computer system then discovers, based on the determined differences between the two instances, a set of actions that, when executed, change the entities of the first instance to the entities of the second instance. The set of actions is ordered such that processing order constraints are respected. The computer system then incrementally upgrades the entities of the first instance to the entities of the second instance by processing the determined set of actions in the appropriate, constraint-aware order.

The present disclosure relates to a system for verifying homogeneity in clusters and comprises a processor and a non-transitory computer readable memory storing instructions that are executable by the processor. The system creates at least one adjacency matrix representing a relationship between rows and columns of a table. The system applies an algorithm to the table to identify a first set of clusters.
