Brief Patent Description - Full Patent Description - Patent Application Claims
This application is a continuation of co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/345,918, filed Jan. 16, 2003, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety. 1. Field of the Invention The present invention generally relates to data processing, and more particularly to analysis of query results. 2. Description of the Related Art As the information accessible to IT solutions becomes more distributed and diversified, it will become increasingly necessary to access information from multiple data sources and integrate the information retrieved into a representation which meets the needs of the application and end users of the application. This information not only needs to be displayed for a user to view or update, but may require advanced analysis techniques to develop knowledge and insights from the data. Currently, a variety of methods, techniques and products are available to perform these types of analyses. Unfortunately, these conventional solutions require that the data be in specific formats (e.g., specified by Comma Separated Variables, SQL selection from database table, text files, XML representations, etc.) prior to executing their respective analysis algorithms, and in most cases require some knowledge of what the specific fields in the data sources contain (e.g., maximum lengths of character data). The problem is further complicated by the fact that the input data (i.e., the data input to the analysis algorithms) is typically a subset of the entire data available from the data sources. The user attempting to gain insight from the data frequently cannot predict which combinations of data will be fed into which analysis algorithms. As a result, custom programming is needed to link specific input data retrieved from the data sources into a format suitable for the analysis algorithms and custom programming in the analysis application to accept this specific data. Accordingly, for each query, the fields returned from that query need to be known in advance by the analysis routine. This means that for every query specified by a user, and for every analysis needed, a custom program configured to accept those inputs returned by those specific queries must be written. Therefore, a new query specified by a user and containing different or additional fields, requires a new analysis program. Further, if this same data were to be analyzed by multiple algorithms, each of these new algorithms would need to be developed. These custom analysis algorithms are tied to a specific set of input data and are not available for use with new queries containing different fields. Therefore, there is a need for a mechanism for dynamically generating input to an analysis environment. The present invention generally provides methods, apparatus and articles of manufacture directed to dynamically generating input to an analysis environment. In one embodiment, a user selection is received of an analysis routine configured to perform an analysis on selected data in an analysis environment. The user-selected analysis routine has a predefined association with a code portion configured to provide the input to the analysis environment. In response to the user selected analysis routine, parameter values are displayed in one or more fields; wherein the one or more fields are predefined for the user selected analysis routine and wherein the parameter values are made available from the selected data. A user selection of one or more of the parameter values is then received. Based on the user selections, the code portion generates information necessary to perform the analysis on the selected data. Subsequently, the code portion outputs the input to the analysis environment; wherein the input includes at least the selected data and the information necessary to perform the analysis on the selected data. Another embodiment provides a method of dynamically generating input for an analysis environment to perform data analysis on selected data, in which an analysis routine selection screen containing a plurality of analysis routines for user selection is displayed. Based on a user-selected analysis routine, a plurality of parameter values are then displayed. The input is generated using the selected data, the user-selected analysis routine and one or more user-selected parameter values, and then provided to the analysis environment. Yet another embodiment provides a computer readable medium containing a program which, when executed, performs an operation for dynamically generating input for an analysis environment to perform data analysis. The operation includes outputting a plurality of analysis routine selections, each associated with a separate analysis routine configured to perform an analysis on selected data in the analysis environment, and wherein each analysis routine has a predefined association with a code portion configured to provide the input to the analysis environment; receiving a user selection of an analysis routine having a predefined relationship with a particular code portion; populating one or more fields with parameter values; wherein the one or more fields are predefined for the user selected analysis routine and wherein the parameter values are made available from the selected data; receiving a user selection of one or more of the parameter values; based on the user selections, generating, by the code portion, information necessary to perform the analysis on the selected data; and outputting, by the code portion, the input for the analysis environment; wherein the input includes at least the selected data and the information necessary to perform the analysis on the selected data. Still another embodiment provides a computer system, comprising a framework configured to dynamically generate input for an analysis environment to perform data analysis on selected data. The framework comprises a plurality of code portions for providing the input to the analysis environment; analysis routines metadata specifying a plurality of user-selectable analysis routines to be displayed via a user interface and, for each of the plurality of user-selectable analysis routines, a code portion to run the analysis routine; and a separate portion of parameters metadata for each of the plurality of user-selectable analysis routines; wherein each separate portion of parameters metadata specifies parameter values to be displayed via the user interface. So that the manner in which the above recited features, advantages and objects of the present invention are attained and can be understood in detail, a more particular description of the invention, briefly summarized above, may be had by reference to the embodiments thereof which are illustrated in the appended drawings.
