An information processing system for consulting centralized information originating in operational applications including a server and a plurality of microcomputers that issue requests to the server. The server includes data stored in the form of files and a metadictionary developed around a plurality of tables specific to the documentation and the administration of the system. Notably, the data is organized in domains, subdomains and functions, and are analyzed by a logical process contained in the metadictionary, which includes axes and indicators that describe the applications. The logical process makes it possible, at the moment the data to be imported into the server is defined, to create tables that contain the data of complementary tables, called consolidation tables, to authorize a generic response to all the requests made of the data and to optimize access performance.
An information processing system for consulting centralized information originating in operational applications, comprising a server (S) and a plurality of microcomputers (MC) adapted to issue requests to the server, said server including data stored in the form of files (F) comprising indicators and axes, which are hierarchical objects classified in different levels that represent desired points of view for analyzing said indicators, one table being associated with each axes and consolidation tables, which support values of one or more indicators along one or more axes, and a metadictionary (MD) including a plurality of tables specific to documentation and administration of the information processing system, wherein said data is organized in domains (D), subdomains (SD) and functions (f), and is analyzed by a logical process (LP) contained in the metadictionary, said metadictionary including axes (A) and indicator (I) tables (TABIND, TAB-AXE) that describe the applications, said logical process being operable, at the moment data to be imported into the server is defined, to create tables that contain data of complementary tables, to authorize a generic response to all requests made of the data in the server and to optimize access performance, and further including means for constructing a minimal common axis dynamically by uniting at least two axes, after comparison and detection of equivalence of levels of the at least two axes, and authorizing transverse interrogations across different domains for analyzing different indicators with respect to the different axes common to different indicators chosen, which in turn belong to different domains.
A method of integration of an operational application in an information processing system used for consulting centralized information originating in operational applications, said information processing system including a server and a plurality of microcomputers that issue requests to the server, said server including data stored in the form of files and a metadictionary developed around a plurality of tables specific to documentation and administration of the information processing system, wherein said data is organized in domains, subdomains and functions, and is analyzed by a logical process contained in the metadictionary, said metadictionary including axes and indicators that describe the applications, said logical process being operable, at the moment the data to be imported into the server is defined, to create tables that contain data of complementary tables, to authorize a generic response to all requests made of the data and to optimize access performance, said method including the steps of:
