MENLO PARK, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/13/13 -- InVisage Technologies, Inc. -- a Silicon Valley-based start-up that is revolutionizing the image sensor market -- today announced it has received its Series D round of venture funding, led by GGV Capital and including Nokia Growth Partners. The undisclosed amount will be used to begin manufacturing the company's QuantumFilm image sensors, which are currently being evaluated by phone manufacturers. Devices incorporating the technology are expected to ship in Q2 2014. GGV and Nokia Growth Partners join InVisage's existing investors RockPort Capital, InterWest Partners, Intel Capital and OnPoint Technologies.
"InVisage is poised to make a tremendous impact on consumer devices and end users with its QuantumFilm image sensors," said Thomas Ng, founding partner, GGV Capital. "Our investment focus and expertise are helping companies during this crucial expansion stage, and we look forward to working with the InVisage team as they scale their technology for the demands of the global mobile-device market."
InVisage QuantumFilm is the world's most light-sensitive image sensor for smartphones, capable of producing gorgeous, high-quality photos in virtually any lighting condition. InVisage has transformed the image sensor by adding a thin layer of quantum dot film to produce highly sensitive image sensors that can be mass-produced using standard CMOS processes. Compared to current camera technologies, the InVisage QuantumFilm sensor provides incredible performance in the smallest package, making picture-taking foolproof, even in dimly lit rooms.
"The innovative QuantumFilm technology from InVisage has the potential to disrupt the market for silicon-based image sensors," said Bo Ilsoe, managing partner of Nokia Growth Partners. "Imaging remains a core investment area for NGP, and it is our belief that InVisage's technology will change how video and images are captured in consumer devices."
"The participation of new investors, including a major handset maker, in this round signals that imaging is a critical differentiator in mobile devices," said Jess Lee, CEO, InVisage Technologies. "For too long, the image sensor industry has lacked innovation. We are excited to bring stunning image quality and advanced new features that will truly transform this industry."

Claude Julien mentioned several times during Boston's fizzler of a 2-3 homestand that he didn't like what he'd seen out of his team during moments of adversity. At the decisive points of a game arrived for his young-ish squad, the Bruins skaters flashed an alarming tendency to fold up their tents.
That happened again Saturday night in a 4-1 loss to an impressively defiant Phoenix Coyotes at Jobing.com Arena. The Bruins were essentially in an uphill battle all evening against the Desert Dogs in the second part of back-to-back road games set to the backdrop of the NHL southwest.
The Bruins battled and grinded to push themselves within a one-goal game in the second period when Mark Stuart's screen-aided bomb from the left point eluded Coyotes goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov. Boston's one and only goal came midway through the second period and highlighted scattered pockets of pressure from a Boston offense fighting its way through the congested neutral zone.
But what happened following Stuart's goal truly revealed the state of the team, and the fragility of Boston's puck psyche at this early point in the season.
Finally handed a little piece of momentum, the B's couldn't sustain the pressure on Bryzgalov and the 'Yotes defense, and perhaps simply didn't even have the juice in back-to-back games to press things. Either way, Mark Recchi took a "new NHL" hooking penalty as he tried to slow former UNH standout Daniel Winnik from entering the zone and was immediately tossed into the box.
The penalty once again revealed one of the soft spots in the Black and Gold's underbelly: the penalty kill.
Robbed of heady, slick veteran performers like P.J. Axelsson and Stephane Yelle, a younger penalty-killing crew has struggled to produce results and Saturday night they allowed Phoenix two goals in four power play chances. Effort and determination wasn't a problem for the young killers in their own zone, but they simply couldn't hold on once the Coyotes dialed up the intensity and threw everything at the Boston cage in a power-play frenzy.
The killer turn of events for the B's was a shrewd play by Shane Doan when the action got hectic in the B's end just when it looked like Boston was going to successfully kill things off.
A calm, composed Doan – who managed three assists in the win – deftly kicked a loose puck in front of a scrambling Tim Thomas toward a rushing Keith Yandle. The Massachusetts-born defenseman and Cushing Academy product laid the hammer down on the one-time opportunity past Thomas for the backbreaking tally.
The Coyotes scored with only six seconds left on their power play amid the game effort by the Boston special teams unit, and it effectively ripped out the B's heart on this night.
Phoenix added on with noted B's killer Scottie Upshall less than a minute later when the grinding Phoenix forward forced his way up the left side, and unleashed a top shelf laser beam that Thomas had no shot at stopping – Vezina Trophy or no Vezina Trophy.
"You've got to give this team credit,'' said Julien to reporters following the game. "They played extremely well. We just didn't seem to have enough fight in us to counter that tonight. After the first period, it's a 1-0 hockey game. But that goal in the second just took the wind out of us. The way they were playing, they weren't going to give us an opportunity to get back into it.''
Armed with a three-goal lead in a home arena that was three-quarters empty, a Coyotes team that seemingly has nothing to play for stayed disciplined and simply played within their defensive system long enough to earn a tidy win over a Boston team that – aside from a game second-period fighting effort by Johnny Boychuk that forced the B's defensive corps to double shift for 10 minutes when he was lost – didn't have much left to force the issue over the final 20 minutes of hockey.
So, it was one good one and one bad one on the first segment of a four-out-of-five games Boston road trip with a Wednesday night game against the Nashville Predators sandwiched in between road stretches. As Recchi warned during Boston's first homestand, that inconsistency is simply not good enough to avoid becoming a .500 team.
The B's are holding themselves to a much higher standard than that this season, and efforts like Saturday night's continue to reinforce that they still have a long way to go.
With that in mind, here are three things we learned last night:
The Bruins forwards had plenty of opportunity to get themselves back into the game, particularly in a second period where the skaters showed plenty of jump, with some Grade A offensive chances. But the Boston forwards simply couldn't finish things off against the Coyotes, and it's been a variation on a goal-challenged theme this season.
Marco Sturm had a beautiful breakaway attempt after getting freed by a pair of crisp passes up the ice from Derek Morris and Marc Savard, but the German forward was knocked off kilter by a diving Ed Jovanovski. Sturm couldn't fully regain his balance to muster a shot strong enough to move past Bryzgalov, and there was no forthcoming penalty for Jovanovski's efforts.
Similarly, Chuck Kobasew had several bites at the scoring apple but couldn't slam home a rebound attempt right by the right post and a Michael Ryder-to-Marc Savard connection – one that worked so well against Dallas on Friday – couldn't make a connection in the desert on a prime 2-on-1 scoring opportunity Saturday night. Many times it appeared the B's were simply out of sync or one step behind when scoring opportunities availed themselves, and that's been true much of the season.
One thing that's been clear about this particular B's team in the early portion of the season is that the work ethic and willingness to get ugly are requirements if Boston is going to score goals. The B's have scored 20 goals in their first seven games of the NHL season (2.86 goals per game), and are smack dab in the middle of the NHL in terms of offensive scoring after finishing second in goals scored (3.34 goals per game) last season.
Last year's prolific bunch is looking more and more like a one-year phenomenon at this point. If that is the case, the B's are going to need to refocus on giving their opponents nothing while hoping to score just enough to win.
The Bruins had themselves a solid blend of youthful zest and wizened experience on last season's penalty kill unit, and managed to be successful in 82.4 percent of their short-handed special teams efforts last season. Last night the B's allowed two power-play goals in four opportunities and haven't really derived a lot of enjoyment from a seasonal success rate of 69.7 percent from their revamped penalty kill unit. The B's penalty kill is ranked ahead of only the woebegone Toronto Maple Leafs in the Eastern Conference. Among the 30 NHL teams, Boston ranks 26th (ahead of the Leafs, Kings, Predators and Stars) when down a skater.
The second Phoenix power-play goal was the actual killer, as the Bruins had just scored a goal and crept into the game. Almost as soon as the momentum turned, however, the team found itself on the defensive end killing a penalty.
The quartet of David Krejci, Marco Sturm, Mark Stuart and Andrew Ference scrapped while trying to hold on during the penalty kill, but there's only so long a team can survive short-handed when the puck can't be cleared out of the zone. Compounding the problem was the issue of protecting against the backdoor play from the Coyotes defensemen, a tactic that led to strikes from Jovanovski and Yandle.
"Both goals came from the backdoor D coming in and our guys didn't react well enough to counter that," Julien told NESN. "If we do that, then maybe we save ourselves a couple of goals."
For a team bent on discipline and structured defensive play that means two different things. The B's need to stay disciplined and simply keep out of the penalty box knowing that their PK is struggling at the moment, and the Bruins simply have to find a way to improve their 69.7 percent rate of success. A playoff team can't survive giving up that many power play goals to the opposition, and Boston has a glaring weakness on the penalty kill.
It wasn't all that surprising, but the scattered bodies at Jobing.com Arena wearing Coyotes gear let Blake Wheeler have it with scattered boos during Saturday night's game. The announced crowd was slightly over 9,000 people and that even seemed to be a generous count of the hearty souls still pledging their support to a Dead Hockey Team Skating.
Wheeler eschewed the advances of his draft team, the Coyotes, when he opted to turn pro out of the University of Minnesota last season, and simply waited out the time period to sign with his draft team before coming to an agreement with Boston.
The rangy B's forward said all along that he wanted to go to a traditional hockey market with true fans and the proper infrastructure, and so the 23-year-old essentially crossed the Desert Dogs off his list and waited until enough time had passed to bypass his draft team.
It appeared that Wheeler made the correct choice last season when he turned in a solid rookie campaign for a reborn Bruins hockey team, and that's been cemented with the Coyotes soap opera that's been playing out all summer.
Phoenix appears ready to pick up and leave a fan base that's understandably already mentally checked out on the team. That can't be comfortable for players on the ice no matter what the team's success level.
So while the boos rained down for Wheeler from a crowd that felt like the youngster rejected them, it's hard to argue that the talented young winger didn't make the exactly correct read of the situation.

Obama's Oval Office Gulf Spill Speech: Bold Plan or Empty Rhetoric? (Video)

Very interesting and worth a read,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Civilization One (Paperback)
This book is very interesting because it presents an array of mathamatical calculations that are based on what has been surveyed at archaeological sites. The maths can be verified throughout, although it must be accepted that many of the "findings" are the assumptions of the authors - what some reviewers have scorned and criticised as nonsensical convoluted thought. But let us be absolutely straight here, the authors are creative and imaginative and what they present is valid if perhaps overly imaginative at times.
The Megalithic Yard and the Minoan Foot are demonstrated, as a matter of fact, to be superior for all convenient terrestrial and celestial calculations (Relative for Sun, Moon and Earth - but not the planets!) and this is to be admired. The authors are intelligent and supply the reader with a wealth of genuinely fascinating and sometimes bewildering information. The accuracy of their findings from the archaeological point of view are highly debateable, but from the theoretical point of view, what they present is valuable and more than a little interesting.
To sum up, it really doesn't matter if the content of this book has any basis in fact or if it is the pure invention and wishful thinknig of the authors because the information is so useful and enlightening. A truly fantastic read which persuaded me to purchase "Who Made the Moon" by the same authors(I'm awaiting its arrival at the time of this review). From reading the reviews of that book I already know that I shall certainly not agree with the conclusions that the authors present but -just like with this gem of a book - I shall enjoy the "facts" along the way and draw my own conclusions as a result. That is what you can do as well with these thought provoking and thoroughly stimulating books.

Each cell in the spreadsheet represents a value of two related entities, or dimensions. For example, one dimension may be time, while a corresponding cross-dimension may be revenue. Many applications, however, may have data, which has more than two dimensions. Business data having more than two dimensions are called multi-dimensional data.
Multi-dimensional data is often used in financial planning, budgeting, and forecasting applications. Examples of common dimensions in such an application include account, time, product, business unit, financial scenarios, and the like. A particular piece of data in such a multi-dimensional data space may be (revenue, February-2005, service, budget, 1000) representing the fact that the data value is 1000 for account=revenue, time=February-2005, business unit=service, and financial scenario=budget.
A common calculation in planning, budgeting, and forecasting applications is to set a high-level goal and then break it down to lower level goals that support the high-level goal. This type of calculation is called allocation. For example, one can set the all-year-2004 revenue goal as $10 million for business unit=service, and financial scenario=budget. This goal can then be broken down to revenue goals for each of the 12 months in 2004. One approach for performing an allocation is to represent the multi-dimensional data in an OLAP (online analytical processing) model such as Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Service� cube, generate Multi-Dimensional eXpression (MDX) query for the allocation, and then execute the query in the Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Service engine.
SQL Server Analysis Service engine may perform poorly for sparse calculations—a calculation is called sparse, if the number of data points need to be calculated is large but most of calculated results are actually zero. The MDX queries generated for allocations tend to be sparse for many of business applications. Therefore, a brute force execution of these queries on an SQL Server Analysis Service engine may result in poor performance.
Allocation performance is enhanced by optimizing queries associated with the allocation. A calculation expression is symbolically analyzed to establish a relationship between non-zero calculated results and non-zero data rows in the input data. Non-zero regions of the calculated results can thereby be determined from the non-zero regions of the input data, enabling a reduction of the calculation complicity by eliminating the zero regions from the calculation symbolically. The calculation thus simplified is usually no longer sparse.
This Summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the Detailed Description. This Summary is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used as an aid in determining the scope of the claimed subject matter.
Embodiments of the present disclosure now will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, which form a part hereof, and which show, by way of illustration, specific exemplary embodiments for practicing the invention. This disclosure may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope to those skilled in the art. Among other things, the present disclosure may be embodied as methods or devices. Accordingly, the present disclosure may take the form of an entirely hardware embodiment, an entirely software embodiment or an embodiment combining software and hardware aspects. The following detailed description is, therefore, not to be taken in a limiting sense.
According to embodiments, a method for establishing a relationship between the non-zero regions of calculated results and non-zero regions of input data is provided. Using this relationship, non-zero regions of the calculated results may be determined from the non-zero regions of the input data, thereby reducing the calculation complicity by eliminating the zero regions from the calculation symbolically.
The relationship may be established employing following three steps. First, the calculation expression is examined to determine whether each term in the expression is dominated by at least one tuple expression. A cell is a point in a multi-dimensional space with every coordinate fully specified, and a tuple is a list of partial coordinates of the cell. A tuple expression is an expression representing a tuple. A term is dominated by a tuple expression, if the term becomes zero when the tuple expression becomes zero.
Next, for each tuple expression in the calculation, all dimensions explicitly mentioned in the tuple expression are found. Dimensions not explicitly mentioned in a tuple expression must have the same values as the target cell—the cell to be calculated.
Then, from the above two steps one may conclude that a target cell is non-zero only if at least one of the input data cell is non-zero, and this input data cell has the same values along the dimensions not explicitly mentioned in any of the tuple expressions. This establishes the relationship between the non-zero calculated results and the non-zero input data.
Illustrative Operating Environment
Referring to
In addition to program modules 106, allocation application 107 may also be executed within operating system 105. Allocation application 107 may be a business application performing calculations on multi-dimensional data to analyze and report on status, goals, progress, financial analysis, and the like. In case of a sparse definition space for its calculations, allocation application 107 may translate the definition space into a dense space and perform the calculations for efficient resource utilization.
To perform the actions described above, allocation application 107 may include and/or interact with other computing devices and applications and application interfaces (APIs) residing in other applications such as the databases shown in
Computing device 100 may have additional features or functionality. For example, computing device 100 may also include additional data storage devices (removable and/or non-removable) such as, for example, magnetic disks, optical disks, or tape. Such additional storage is illustrated in
System memory 104, removable storage 109 and non-removable storage 110 are all examples of computer storage media. Computer storage media includes, but is not limited to, RAM, ROM, EEPROM, flash memory or other memory technology, CD-ROM, digital versatile disks (DVD) or other optical storage, magnetic cassettes, magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to store the desired information and which can be accessed by computing device 100. Any such computer storage media may be part of device 100. Computing device 100 may also have input device(s) 112 such as retail devices, keyboard, mouse, pen, voice input device, touch input device, etc. Output device(s) 114 such as a display, speakers, printer, etc. may also be included.
Computing device 100 also contains communication connections 116 that allow the device to communicate with other computing devices 118, such as over a network. Communication connections 116 are one example of communication media. Communication media may typically be embodied by computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules, or other data in a modulated data signal, such as a carrier wave or other transport mechanism, and includes any information delivery media. The term "modulated data signal" means a signal that has one or more of its characteristics set or changed in such a manner as to encode information in the signal. By way of example, and not limitation, communication media includes wired media such as a wired network or direct-wired connection, and wireless media such as acoustic, RF, infrared and other wireless media.
An allocation application, such as allocation application 107 of
In another embodiment, server(s) 202 may interact with database 204 that is arranged to store data for business applications. The allocation application may perform an optimized query before performing allocation calculations reducing the calculation space significantly from the relatively large definition space. Data in the reduced calculation space may be stored (temporarily) in database 206. In another embodiment, calculation results may also be stored in database 204 or 206.
The allocation application may interact with client devices, such as handheld computer 214, desktop computer 212, and laptop computer 216, over network 210 to receive instructions such as the expression for the calculation, provide reports, and perform other allocation related tasks. Client devices communicating with server(s) 202 may include any type of computing device, not limited to the examples shown herein.
Network 210 may be a secure network such an enterprise network, or an unsecure network such as a wireless open network. Network 210 provides communication between the nodes described above. By way of example, and not limitation, network 210 may include wired media such as a wired network or direct-wired connection, and wireless media such as acoustic, RF, infrared and other wireless media.
The present invention is not limited to the above-described environment, however. Many other configurations of computing devices, communications, applications, and distribution systems may be employed to implement a business application that uses query optimization for allocation performance improvement.
Illustrative Embodiments for Improving Allocation Performance By Query Optimization
Embodiments are directed to reducing a sparse calculation to non-sparse, thereby, significantly improving allocation performance. A symbolic analysis of the calculation expression is performed to reduce sparse definition space for the calculation. By analyzing the calculation expression symbolically, regions of zero (or non-interesting) values are determined without actually performing the calculation for the whole space.
For example, a company may set aside a total special advertising budget of $1 million for the current year, which needs to be split by month, by store, and by product based on the same percentage spent in the previous year. If the calculation assumes 12 months, 100 stores, and 10,000 products, a space of 12*100*10,000=12 million is the definition space for the calculation. However, for a majority of the months, stores, and products no advertising funds may have been spent in the previous year. The special advertising funds may have been spent only during a few months of the year at selected stores for a select few products. Accordingly, the actual allocation is a small list of (month, store, product) combinations. This is a typical sparse calculation. By analyzing the formula one can recognize that the calculation produces non-zero result only if the previous year's spending was non-zero, which can be easily determined by retrieving the actual spending records of the previous year. Using the list of the previous year's spending and the realization that the current year's spending is non-zero only if the previous year's value is non-zero, the calculation can be reduced to those combinations that have a no-zero value from the previous year, thus reducing the allocation significantly.
Some of the terms in allocation calculations can be defined as follows. As mentioned before, a cell is a point in a multi-dimensional space with every coordinate fully specified. A tuple is a list of partial coordinates of a cell. A non-empty tuple (with respect to a scope S) is a tuple such that there exists an expansion of the tuple to a cell where the cell is in scope S and the cell value is non-empty. The set of all input data is called "fact table" following the terminology used in OnLine Analytical Processing (OLAP).
Embodiments of query optimization for allocation performance improvement may be implemented by identifying "non-empty" tuples of the calculated scope with the non-empty tuples of the fact table. Non-empty tuples of the fact table can be relatively easily obtained by an SQL query in general and by a NonEmptyCrossjoin function in MDX in particular. The NonEmptyCrossjoin function returns the cross product of two or more sets as a set, excluding empty tuples or tuples without data supplied by underlying fact tables. Accordingly, non-empty tuples of the calculated region can also be obtained relatively easily. Once the non-empty tuples of the calculated region are determined, the tuples can be expanded to cells by forming a cross-join with the missing dimensions. The longer the non-empty tuples, the better the optimization because a number of missing dimensions is bound to be small resulting in smaller regions of the cross-join. Following the notation used in MDX, in subsequent descriptions we use the expression "select Non Empty . . . " to mean filtering out zero calculated results at the end of the calculation, and "select (NonEmptyCrossJoin( . . . ))" to mean filtering out zero calculated results using input-data-to-calculated-results relationship before the calculations are performed.
While MDX notations are used throughout this text, the invention is not limited to SQL expressions, and embodiments may be implemented in other database systems using the principles described herein.
An allocation calculation can be simplistically expressed as a formula of the form:
The sub-cube may be of the form (S1, S2, . . . Sn), where Si is a member set in the i-th dimension and (S1, S2, . . . Sn) is the Cartesian product of the member sets. The size of the calculated space is |S1|*|S2| . . . * |Sn|, where |Si| is the cardinality of the set Si. If a result of the calculation contains only small number of non-zero values, the calculation is called "sparse".
A brut force subroutine for allocation that only eliminates non-zero results at the end may be expressed as:
Using NonEmptyCrossjoin, the same calculation can be optimized according to one embodiment as:
This approach is more resource-efficient because nonEmptyCrossJoin can be performed before the calculation is performed. Hence, the space in which the calculation is to be performed is reduced significantly.
Referring to
The same revenue data 2004 is shown in data store 330 in physical data representation format, which is a table format. First dimension stores are listed in column 332. For each store (e.g. S1-Sm), corresponding products (e.g. P1-Pn) are listed in column 334. Next column 336 includes year, which in this example is 04. Last column 338 includes a listing of revenue values for each combination.
The allocation shown in diagram 400 begins with expression 440. Expression 440 defines a relationship to be applied to data in a definition space to derive a result. For example, expression 440 may be for determining estimated budget of a company with multiple stores. The expression maybe defined as
According to some embodiments, optimizing the query begins with a symbolic analysis of expression 440. For the above example, analysis 4420 reveals that dimension of interest for the allocation is revenue, and the data range of interest is years 2003 and 2004. Stores (S1-Sm) and products (P1-Pn) are two other dimensions used in the illustration and data points in the two dimensional space (store, product) are to be analyzed and reduced in the translation process.
Analysis 442 leads to translation of definition space (typically sparse) to more dense calculation space. The symbolic analysis of the expression may be dynamically adjusted if a dimension or a data range within the expression is modified. A definition space may be any type of data structure including, but not limited to, tables, spreadsheets, multi-dimensional data stores, and the like. Definition space 452 is illustrated as example two dimensional spreadsheet data representation. Terms of expression 440 are also represented in two dimensional spreadsheet data representation.
Columns P1 through Pn represent products, and rows S1 through Sm represent stores, and the number in each cell represents revenue. An illustration of an alternative representation of this data in a database table is given in
Translation 444 is the operation of reducing definition space 452 to calculation space 458. Details of the translation operation are described below, along with an example, in conjunction with
Calculation space 458 includes table representation containing data with empty (non-interesting) values largely reduced. Performing calculation 446 on this space to arrive at results data space 460 reduces resource usage (memory, processing time, etc.) significantly increasing an overall efficiency of the allocation application.
The invention is not limited to the example data structures or operations described in conjunction with
Data structure 500 illustrates an example hierarchy for time. Time may be one of the dimensions in a multi-dimensional data structure. There are a variety of ways to set up a hierarchy for time. For example, top-level "year" may be divided into twelve "months", each of which may in return be divided into four "weeks". Another hierarchy may include biweekly periods reporting directly to the top-level "year". Each of the hierarchies may be given a name to designate the hierarchy in the allocation algorithm.
Data structure 500 shows hierarchy 502 named "RegHier". "RegHier" begins with "Year" at top-level (504). Next, four quarters, "Q1"-"Q4", report at level 506 to "Year". Each quarter is divided to four months, "M1"-"M12" at level 508.
Syntax 510 is an example representation of data structure 500 in an allocation algorithm such as the example algorithms of
The invention is not limited to the data structures, data types, hierarchies, naming conventions, and the like, discussed above. Other data structures, data types, hierarchies, naming conventions, and the like may be implemented using the principles described herein.
In the example allocation of algorithm 610 of diagram 600, the query is performed over a large region using calculation expression:
([Scenario].[All Members].[ACT])*1.1.
To minimize calculation operations, a brut-force non-empty selection operation is performed during the calculation, but the selection process itself uses a large amount of resources. Thus, the selection process may be resource-inefficient, slow, even result in an out-of-memory error.
The example allocation of algorithm 610 may be optimized as shown in algorithm 620. Because "NonEmptyCrossjoin" is used instead of "non empty", the calculation space is reduced from the initial, relatively large definition space resulting in significantly improved performance.
Process 700 is generally directed to identifying "non-empty" tuples of a calculated scope with the non-empty tuples of a fact table. Non-empty tuples of the fact table are obtained employing a NonEmptyCrossjoin function. The NonEmptyCrossjoin function returns the cross product of two or more sets as a set, excluding empty tuples or tuples without data supplied by underlying fact tables. Once the non-empty tuples of the calculated region are determined, the tuples are expanded to cells by forming a cross-join with the missing dimensions.
Process 700 begins at operation 702, where a data space for the allocation is defined. This may be done by defining a scope of a member set such as (S1, S2, . . . Sn), where Si is a member of the ith dimension. Processing moves from operation 702 to operation 704.
At operation 704, the calculation expression is symbolically analyzed. This may be accomplished by parsing the expression into an object tree (e.g. a binary tree), where the leaves of the tree correspond to constants, tuples or tuple sets. Processing advances from operation 704 to operation 706.
At operation 706, the leaves of the object tree are analyzed. Each leaf term is examined for its type. Processing moves from operation 706 to decision operation 708.
At decision operation 708, a determination is made whether the leaf term being analyzed is a tuple or a tuple set. If the leaf is a tuple or tuple set, processing advances to decision operation 710. Otherwise, processing moves back to operation 706 for analysis of another leaf term.
A decision operation 710, a determination is made whether there are any dimensions for the tuple or tuple set leaf with an empty member or member set expression. If there are dimensions with an empty member of member set expression, processing proceeds to operation 712. Otherwise, processing moves to operation 714.
At operation 714, the dimensions with a non-empty member or a member set expression are collected. Processing then advances to operation 716, where the collected dimensions are designated as cross-join dimensions (d1, d2, . . . dm).
The remaining dimensions are designated as non-empty cross-join dimensions (dm+1, dm+2, . . . dn) at operation 712. Processing proceeds from both operations 712 and 716 to operation 718.
At operation 718, the calculation is performed using the expression of operation 704. While the calculation is being performed, a selection is made based on the combination of non-empty cross-join dimensions. In one embodiment, selecting the dimensions and their members may include creating an outline of the dimensions and their members in a desired order. By employing the NonEmptyCrossjoin function to reduce the definition space, the calculation is limited to a smaller calculation space without spending resources on selecting non-empty members in the sparse definition space first. Hence, the allocation performance is significantly enhanced. After operation 718, processing moves to a calling process for further actions.
The operations included in process 700 are for illustration purposes. Improving allocation performance by query optimization may be implemented by a similar process with fewer or additional steps, as well as in different order of operations.

MAPPED: The gentrification of inner city London. How high-earners have flocked back to once-deprived boroughs from the suburbs
- More professionals now choosing life in gritty city over leafy suburb
- Salubrious west and north London losing out to once-deprived east
- Map shows 'upmarket' areas in red and 'downmarket' in blue
- Based on census data on who lived where in 2001 compared to 2011
London has been turned inside out over the past decade because the highly-paid are now choosing the gritty inner-city over once-affluent leafy suburbs.
A map compiled by housing experts shows that the 21st century capital has gone through 'reverse gentrification' at a dramatic pace.
Based on the professions and salaries of those living there, the red areas show places that have gone 'upmarket' and communities that have gone 'downmarket' since 2001.
All change: This map from property experts show how areas of London have gone upmarket, in red, and downmarket, in blue, in the past decade based on the earnings and professions who live there
Experts from estate agency Savills used socio-economic data from the Office for National Statistics and compared who lived where in 2001 and then in 2011, the latest data available.
It reveals the end of the trend where those who could not afford areas like Kensington, Chelsea, Islington and other salubrious areas of Central London headed to the outer edges of the city.
Top managers, high-end professionals and business owners who once settled in north and west London suburbs like Ealing, Walthamstow and Wood Green are now flocking to up-and-coming areas of east London, including Stratford, the Isle of Dogs and Hackney.
Areas once notorious for slums and vast estates have become richer and more fashionable, especially around the Olympic Park.
A ring of blue across much of the northern suburbs from east to west shows how communities there are in decline.
In: High-rise housing in Stratford, east London is attracting professionals...
.... but they are turning away from areas like leafy Ealing, west London
Reverse gentrification: Areas like this one in Hackney, east London, are being chosen with greater regularity over communities further out of London
Savills researcher
Neal Hudson, who put together the data, said building new homes along the Thames and on the eastern fringes of the city had been snapped up by the more wealthy.
These young professionals would have generally headed further outwards for their homes, but now want 'urban living', he said.
'The affordability pressures of the London housing market have priced many people out of central London,' Mr Hudson said.

'As prices increased more people moved outwards in search of more affordable accommodation.
'During the 2001-11 period we have seen greater concentrations of lower earning households in suburban London where the housing stock is typically more affordable and can be made cheaper being split into flats or occupied by multiple adults sharing the rent'.
The ONS plot NS-Sec for all over Britain, which is based on what people living there do for a living, and ranked between one and eight.
One is higher management, four is an average office job and eight is someone who has never worked or is long-term unemployed.
These low-paid or unemployed people have been forced out of central London at an astonishing rate in the past decade as house prices and rents rocketed.
