Abstract
A mapping system and method that receives a query identifying an encoded document, reconfigures the encoded document into a hybrid structure by parsing information from the encoded document and mapping the information as elements into the hybrid structure according to attributes of the information, and extracts the elements matching the query from the hybrid structure.
Claims18
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a processor, a query identifying an encoded document;
- reconfiguring the encoded document into a hybrid structure by:
- acquiring the encoded document,
- parsing information from the encoded document, and
- mapping the information as elements into the hybrid structure according to attributes of the information;
- and
- extracting the elements matching the query from the hybrid structure.
A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause:
- receiving, by the processor, a query identifying an encoded document;
- reconfiguring, by the processor, the encoded document into a hybrid structure by:
- acquiring the encoded document,
- parsing information from the encoded document, and
- mapping the information as elements into the hybrid structure according to attributes of the information;
- and
- extracting, by the processor, the elements matching the query from the hybrid structure.
A system, comprising a processor and a memory, the system configured to:
- receive a query identifying an encoded document;
- reconfigure the encoded document into a hybrid structure, wherein the reconfiguration includes:
- acquire the encoded document,
- parse information from the encoded document, and
- map the information as elements into the hybrid structure in accordance with attributes of the information;
- and
- extract the elements that match the query from the hybrid structure.
