PARTIAL RESULT CLASSIFICATION

摘要

A query can be executed over incomplete data and produce a partial result. Moreover, the partial result or portion thereof can be classified in accordance with a partial result taxonomy. In accordance with one aspect, the taxonomy can be defined in terms of data correctness and cardinality properties. Further, partial result analysis can be performed at various degrees of granularity. Classified partial result can be presented on a display device to allow user to view and optionally interact with the partial result.
