RECONFIGURABLE QUERY GENERATION SYSTEM FOR WEB BROWSERS

摘要

A reconfigurable web-browser compatible data query system. The invention provides an XML platform enabling web-based forms that query data modeled by data schemas. This platform comprises a collection of query form controls, an annotation scheme for attaching these controls to the data schema, a compiler for creating a web-browser-compatible representation of the query form, and a run-time engine for constructing queries against the data and rendering query results.
