US 2014/0181002 A1 · Systems and Methods for Implementing Virtual Cubes for Data Processing

Abstract

System and methods are provided for processing a multi-dimensional data structure represented as multi-dimensional cubes. A first multi-dimensional cube and a second multi-dimensional cube are received, the first multi-dimensional cube including first cube property data and first user data, the second multi-dimensional cube including second cube property data and second user data. A virtual multi-dimensional cube including virtual cube property data for accessing and performing computer-based operations upon the first user data and the second user data are generated, the virtual cube property data including a first mapping from the first cube property data to the virtual cube property data and a second mapping from the second cube property data to the virtual cube property data.

A computer-implemented method for processing a multi-dimensional data structure represented as multi-dimensional cubes, said method comprising:

receiving a first multi-dimensional cube and a second multi-dimensional cube, the first multi-dimensional cube including first cube property data and first user data, the second multi-dimensional cube including second cube property data and second user data;
and
generating, with one or more processors, a virtual multi-dimensional cube including virtual cube property data for accessing and performing computer-based operations upon the first user data and the second user data, the virtual cube property data including a first mapping from the first cube property data to the virtual cube property data and a second mapping from the second cube property data to the virtual cube property data.

A computer-implemented system for processing a multi-dimensional data structure represented as multi-dimensional cubes, said system comprising:

one or more data processors;
a computer-readable storage medium encoded with instructions for commanding the data processors to execute operations including:
receiving a first multi-dimensional cube and a second multi-dimensional cube, the first multi-dimensional cube including first cube property data and first user data, the second multi-dimensional cube including second cube property data and second user data;
and
generating a virtual multi-dimensional cube including virtual cube property data for accessing and performing computer-based operations upon the first user data and the second user data, the virtual cube property data including a first mapping from the first cube property data to the virtual cube property data and a second mapping from the second cube property data to the virtual cube property data.
