DATA STREAMING FOR INTERACTIVE DECISION-ORIENTED SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS

摘要

Providing data to a computer software application by intercepting a request made by a computer software application to retrieve a first data set from a first data storage location, accessing a record, defined in advance of the request, that includes a reference to the first data set and a reference to a second data set, retrieving the first data set from a data storage location other than the first data storage location, and retrieving the second data set from a data storage location other than the first data storage location in advance of a request by the computer software application to access the second data set at the first data storage location.

主权项

1. A method for providing data to a computer software application, the method comprising:
defining a first record that refers to a data item requested during execution of a computer software application, wherein the first record is associated with a first decision path of the computer software application; defining a second record that refers to the same data item requested during execution of the computer software application, wherein the second record is associated with a second decision path of the computer software application; associating with each of the records an indicator indicating that the data item is associated with multiple decision paths; and associating the records with a data retrieval plan for providing data during a subsequent execution of the computer software application.
