Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to an analytics delivery platform, and more particularly to creating and viewing content on a wide array of devices and seamlessly transitioning from viewing content on one device to viewing the same content on a second device.
  • BACKGROUND Enterprises are collecting vast amounts of data about all facets of their operation. The raw data often exists in an operational database where it is stored in rows and columns of numbers and codes. These enterprises need a means for making meaningful sense of this large amount of data. Analytics delivery platforms are designed to facilitate the interpreting, analyzing, compiling, and understanding of such data.
  • the analytics delivery platform allows the user to create various reports. For example, users can create reports to identify their best performing product, store, product representative, or the like. The reports enable the user to make better decisions.
  • Analytics delivery platforms of the prior art developed based on the traditional client-server paradigm. Users now also desire to receive web- enabled reports. Therefore vendors have bolted web-functionality onto their products. Web-functionality constitutes the content creator creating the same content in a web report format. Likewise, users now desire wireless access to reports. Thus vendors have also bolted wireless-functionality onto their products.
  • the bolt-on architecture of current analytics delivery platforms requires content to be generated specifically for each format. Each format of a particular content is stored by the analytics delivery platform. The storage of separate formats is necessary because user device interfaces differ significantly from device to device.
  • content created in one format cannot be used by a device requiring the content in a different format.
  • the content creator must create a separate report of each particular content in the format utilized by each different device.
  • the content creator must create a separate report of each particular content in the format utilized by the new device.
  • the server stores reports in multiple formats, one format for each device.
  • the content creator specifies the format of the report. Therefore, the report in the stored format is only effectively accessible to a particular device.
  • a desirable feature from the user's perspective is to be able to select from any number of devices to analyze the data on. Another desirable feature is the ability to transition from one device to another seamlessly, so that the content displayed on the second device corresponds to the content which was displayed on the device that the user was previously using.
  • the analytics delivery platform of the here described > includes an intuitive user interface, the ability to view content on any number of different devices, and the ability to seamlessly transfer from one device to another while analyzing content.

  • the user interface is replicated across any number of data and voice devices in a configuration best suited for use on the particular device a user is utilizing.
  • the present disclosure also provides a solution for viewing reports on any number of devices.
  • the dynamic device support of the present invention stores content in a device neutral format.
  • the content can then be reformatted according to the characteristics of the device and the browser utilized by the device. Hence the content is saved separately from the presentation format. This allows content to be created once on any device, and then viewed on any other device without any additional changes needing to be made.
  • the present disclosure provides a solution to seamlessly transition from viewing a report on one interface medium, to viewing the same location in the report on a second interface medium.
  • the multi- modal navigation system of the present invention utilizes the device neutral format of content for switching to a new device, with the system remembering the state at which analysis was at in the first device and reformatting the content in accordance with the device characteristics and browser utilized by the new device.
  • multi-modal navigation provides the ability to view analytical content on one device and then continue the viewing session on another device, with the system remembering the point in the content at which the switch from one device to the other occurred.
