Abstract
A method for analyzing data from data sources includes receiving user input to specify a mathematical expression. The mathematical expression includes a first data field from a first object and a second data field from a second object. The first object and the second object are distinct objects of an object model that includes a tree in which each relation between objects represents a respective many-to-one relationship between respective objects. The method further includes generating a calculated data field based on the mathematical expression, and assigning the calculated data field as a member of a third object in the object model according to relations in the tree connecting the first object to the second object.
