Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a composable data model. One of the methods includes receiving an input data file defining: (i) a catalog that defines one or more named elements, one or more named compositions, and one or more named multi-compositions, and (ii) a catalog store that is an instance of the catalog; and generating a data object representing the catalog store in a database, comprising generating data objects respectively representing i) every instance of a named element specified by the catalog store defined in the input data file, ii) every instance of a named composition specified by the catalog store defined in the input data file, and iii) every instance of a named multi-composition specified by the catalog defined in the input data file.

Composable data model

A method and a system for structured searches of information via key-objects are disclosed herein. Key-objects may be used to describe certain features or parameters of content within webpages in a structured fashion, may be linked or embedded into respective webpages, and may be subsequently collected and stored by search engines enabling the structured searches. A thesaurus of key-objects may be updated with new key-objects discovered by search engines. Methods described herein may be used for structured searches of merchandise or services in e-commerce or mobile e-commerce thereby facilitating the location and comparison of merchandise by product specifications in lieu of keywords needed to get to the product specifications. In all, the elimination of voluminous and largely irrelevant outputs is realized, whereby users receive precise, streamlined, or exceedingly relevant responses at will, and can control or manipulate the order of the structured search outputs according to their specific information needs.

Structured search via key-objects

A method for providing continuity over a series of transactions is provided, comprising the steps of (a) creating a Portable Continuity Object (PCO) as a defined digital package by an instance of PCO software executing on a computerized appliance also capable of communication transaction; (b) providing identity of a person, an address of a communication device and a continuity context in the PCO; (c) sharing the PCO in related transactions, with the PCO updated with information concerning individual transactions by digital equipment enhanced with an instance of PCO software; and (d) providing context continuity in succeeding transactions by accessing the PCO by one or both parties to a transaction.

Portable continuity object

A system and method for querying heterogeneous data sources is disclosed. In some embodiments, the system comprises a plurality of heterogeneously structured data sources, a plurality of query objects that represent queries to the data sources and that are independent of the structure of the data sources, and a user interface configured to query the plurality of query objects.
