A computer system may be configured to: execute a first query associated with a first panel; display the first panel in a user interface based on first display settings of the first panel, the first panel displaying at least a portion of the result of the first query, the result of the first query associated with a variable; execute a second query associated with a second panel, wherein the second query refers to the variable associated with the first query; display the second panel in the user interface based on second display settings of the second panel, the second panel displaying at least a portion of the result of the second query; and in response to user input changing the displayed result in the first panel: re-execute the second query; and update the display of the second panel in the user interface based on results of the re-executed second query.

Aspects of the present disclosure include a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a method for managing access permissions associated with data resources. Example embodiments involve evaluating user access permissions with respect to shared data resources of a group of network applications. The method includes receiving a request to access a data resource. The method further includes accessing a policy object linked to the data resource that includes an effective policy for the data resource. The method further includes evaluating a user's access permissions with respect to the data resource based on the policy object and communicating a response to the network application that includes the access permission of the user.

Network-based permissioning system

An application automatically saves drafts of a document in association with the document. Drafts are saved, for example, whenever the application closes the document. Thus, the application stores a separate draft of the document for each session in which the document was used. The saved drafts are logically associated with each other and their original document. Because of this association, whenever the user accesses the document in the application, the application may present to the user a list of the various drafts of the documents. The user may continue working on the last saved draft, or the user may select another draft from which to continue working. The application further includes a collaborative interface for listing objects at a server. The server pushes new changes or additions to the objects directly to the client, and the client updates the interface accordingly, without user intervention.

Automatic creation and server push of multiple distinct drafts

Aspects of the present disclosure include a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a method for managing access permissions associated with data resources. The method includes providing a user interface for registering a policy to a client device, and receiving a policy registration associated with a data resource stored in a first network database. The method further includes registering a policy associated with the data resource based on the policy registration. The registering of the policy includes creating a policy object that is linked to the data resource and storing the policy object in a second network database.

A modal-less save interface enables a user to provide a filename under which to save a document at any time during operation of the application, without interrupting other user tasks of the application. The user inputs a filename and performs a save operation on a document without navigating menu items or launching a modal window. The modal-less save interface may be provided in a portion of the main application window. For example, the modal-less save interface may be presented in a toolbar, taskbar, status bar, window pane, or sidebar. An application may feature a modal-less access control interface. The modal-less access control interface may be provided in a portion of the main application window. The access control interface may comprise a control, such as link, button, checkbox, text box, or pull-down menu. Upon selection of the control, the application sets one or more access control levels for the current document.

Aspects of the present disclosure include a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a method for managing access permissions associated with data resources. Example embodiments involve evaluating user access permissions with respect to shared data resources of a group of network applications. The method includes receiving a request, from one of the network applications, to access a particular data resource. The request includes an identifier of a requesting user. The method further includes accessing a policy object associated with the data resource that includes policy information specifying operations the user is authorized to perform with respect to the data resource based on satisfaction of one or more conditions. The method further includes evaluating the user's access permissions with respect to the data resource based on the policy object, and communicating a response to the network application that includes the access permission of the user.

One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a method for providing access to a data object from within a spreadsheet included in a spreadsheet application. The method includes associating the data object with a first cell of the spreadsheet, wherein the data object is related to a parameter, and the first cell is identified by a cell reference, receiving an input that is related to a second cell of the spreadsheet and includes an expression that specifies the parameter and the first cell reference, and replacing the first cell reference specified by the expression with the data object, wherein a value for the second cell may be determined by applying the parameter to the data object specified in the expression.

A method that facilitates optimization analysis and sensitivity analysis of a data model comprises: receiving first data identifying a value function, parameters for the value function, and one or more specific parameter values for one or more of the parameters; storing a data model based on the value function and the specific parameter values; determining which parameters of the data model are capable of taking variable values; receiving second data identifying one or more selected parameters; receiving third data specifying a value selection approach for each of the selected parameters; determining a plurality of result values by substituting, based on the value selection approach, a plurality of input values for each of the selected parameters and evaluating the value function using the selected parameters and the substituted values; and generating and causing displaying a table of the result values.

Visualizing data model sensitivity to variations in parameter values

In one embodiment, an expression comprising a left-hand side and a right-hand side is received. The left-hand side specifies one or more market instruments, and the right-hand side specifies a method that is to be applied based on the left-hand side of the expression. The expression is parsed. A time series is generated by applying the method based on one or more sets of data values associated with the one or more market instruments. The generated time series is stored in computer data storage.

Object-oriented time series generator

To prevent potential confusion when referencing an object by name, a party may supplementary or alternatively include referential metadata, other than the name by which the object is known to the party, that describes the referenced object. A party receiving information that includes such referential metadata for an object may utilize the referential metadata to identify a local object that matches or may substitute for the object referenced by the sending party. For example, a broker operating a financial system may generate a chart based on a first named object. The broker may wish to send the chart to another broker operating a different financial system. Since the first name object may be known by a different name in the different financial system, the financial system may replace the name of the object with referential metadata prior to sending the chart.
