US Patent:

6772156, Aug 3, 2004

Filed:

Nov 29, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/450892

Inventors:

Paul A. Rogers - Fremont CA
Nicolas C. Nierenberg - Hillsborough CA

Assignee:

Actuate Corporation - South San Francisco CA

International Classification:

G06F 700

US Classification:

707 9, 707102, 715525, 715526

Abstract:

Methods and computer program products are disclosed for generating and viewing a content listing or âtable of contentsâ for a report with page-level security based in part on data breaks in the report. The content listing is derived from a content list structure containing multiple data items where a data item represents a content group. A data item is retrieved from the content list structure and contains a page range. It is then determined whether any pages in the report that the user is authorized to view are in the page range. It is then determined whether the data item should be in the content listing. In this manner, a table of contents in which data in the report viewable by a user has a corresponding content line entry in the content listing.

International Classification:

G06F007/00

US Classification:

707 9, 7071041, 707201, 715525

Abstract:

Methods and computer program products are disclosed for generating and viewing an electronic report having security features that allow for “virtual bursting” of the report for multiple users. A single report having multiple pages is generated such that each or some of the pages have security tags that are compared to a security identifier list of a particular user that acts as a security clearance for that user. Through this comparison, a subset of pages from the report is formed which makes up a “report” from the user's point of view that contains only data the user is allowed to see. This allows multiple users to view only authorized portions of a single report having page-level security determined by level breaks in the data.

Appl. No.:

10/385066

Inventors:

Paul Matthew Rogers - Pleasanton CA, US
James Andrew Maxson - Berkeley CA, US
Ilga Celmins - Aptos CA, US

Assignee:

General Electric Company - Schenectady NY

International Classification:

G05B 13/02

US Classification:

700 36, 700 28, 700 33, 700 37, 700281, 700287, 702 82, 702 61, 702 62, 702181, 702182

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for operating a production system that includes a plurality of production facilities is provided. The method includes receiving, in real-time, for each facility, cost data for a first resource used by each respective facility to produce an output, receiving, in real-time, for each facility, cost data for a second resource used by each respective facility to produce the output, determining, in real-time; an automated incremental cost curve for the system based on a level of production of each facility and the received resource cost data, and determining a production output target for each production facility to achieve an optimum production system output based on the real-time incremental cost curves. The system includes at least one production facility that includes a software code segment programmed to determine, in real-time, an incremental cost of a first resource based on a level of production of each respective facility.
