SYSTEM AND METHOD IN A DATA TABLE FOR CREATING RECURSIVE SCALABLE TEMPLATE INSTANCES

摘要

The present invention is directed to a method, system and program, in a multi-dimensional electronic data table comprising a plurality of data, for creating one or plurality of recursive scalable template instances; a recursive scalable template instance comprising a variable number of contiguous recursive element instances ordered and aligned along a first data table dimension and structured according to a recursive scalable template; a recursive element instance being defined as comprising one or a plurality of scalable template instances; a scalable template instance comprising a variable number of elements structured according to a scalable template; an element being defined as a range of data; a range of data comprising one or a plurality of data; a recursive scalable template comprising a recursive element comprising one or a plurality of scalable templates. The method comprises for each recursive scalable template instance to create, the steps of: . Selecting a recursive scalable template; . Defining a location for creating a recursive scalable template instance; . Creating at the defined location one or a plurality of contiguous recursive element instances ordered and aligned along a first data table dimension; each recursive element instance having a variable size along said first data table dimension and a same size along a second data table dimension; . Structuring each recursive element instance according to the recursive element defined for the recursive scalable template; . Aligning each scalable template instance of each recursive element instance along said first data table dimension; . Aligning within each recursive element instance, each scalable template instance along said second data table dimension.
