Abstract
A computer receives a visual specification, which specifies a data source, visual variables, and data fields from the data source. Each visual variable is associated with either data fields (e.g., dimension and/or measures) or filters. The computer obtains a data model encoding the data source as a tree of related logical tables. Each logical table includes logical fields, each of which corresponds to either a data field or a calculation that spans logical tables. The computer generates a dimension subquery for the dimensions and the filters. The computer also generates, for each measure, an aggregated measure subquery grouped by the dimensions. The computer forms a final query by joining the dimension subquery to each of the aggregated measure subqueries. The computer subsequently executes the final query and displays a data visualization according to the results of the final query.
