Abstract
This application relates generally to defining a domain-specific syntax characterizing a functional information system and performing operations on data entities represented by the domain-specific syntax, including defining a domain-specific syntax, receiving and storing a domain-specific data entity, assigning a syntactic tag to the domain-specific data entity, and electronically storing the tag assigned to the data entity in the electronic data store so that the tag is logically linked to the stored data entity.
Claims22
A method for executing a command in a computing environment to perform a database operation on a representation of a functional information system stored on an electronic data store, the method comprising the steps of:
- storing a domain-specific syntax characterizing a functional information system for a domain, wherein the syntax comprises rules that define a set of valid positions;
- receiving and storing a domain-specific data entity in an electronic data store;
- assigning a syntactic tag to the domain-specific data entity, the tag associating the domain-specific data entity with the domain-specific syntax;
- electronically storing the tag assigned to the data entity in the electronic data store so that the tag is logically linked to the stored data entity;
- and
- enabling a data retrieval operation on the data store based the syntactic tag or the data entity.
A system for executing a command in a computing environment to perform a database operation on a representation of a functional information system stored on an electronic data store, the system comprising:
- a processor configured for:
- storing a domain-specific syntax characterizing a functional information system for a domain, wherein the syntax comprises rules that define a set of valid positions;
- receiving and storing a domain-specific data entity in an electronic data store;
- assigning a syntactic tag to the domain-specific data entity, the tag associating the domain-specific data entity with the domain-specific syntax;
- a data store configured for:
- electronically storing the tag assigned to the data entity in the electronic data store so that the tag is logically linked to the stored data entity;
- and
- enabling a data retrieval operation on the data store based the syntactic tag or the data entity.
A method for executing a command in a computing environment to perform a database operation on a representation of a functional information system stored on an electronic data store, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving from a user and storing a domain-specific data entity in an electronic data store;
- receiving a syntactic tag assigned to the domain-specific data entity, the tag associating the domain-specific data entity with the domain-specific syntax;
- electronically storing the tag assigned to the data entity in the electronic data store so that the tag is logically linked to the stored data entity;
- and
- enabling a data retrieval operation on the data store based the syntactic tag or the data entity, wherein the domain-specific syntax characterizes a functional information system for a domain, wherein the syntax comprises rules that define a set of valid positions.
