VALIDATING SEGMENTATION CRITERIA
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of validating segmentation criteria relative to a plurality of items organized according to a dimensionally-modeled data space, wherein each criterion nominally characterizes a segment comprising an area of interest of the dimensionally-modeled data space, the method comprising:
- mapping the items to the segments characterized by the segmentation criteria;
processing the mapping and evaluating, based thereon, validity of the segmentation criteria; and
reporting a result of the evaluating.

Abstract
Segmentation criteria are validated relative to a plurality of items organized according to a dimensionally-modeled data space. Each criterion nominally characterizes a segment comprising an area of interest of the dimensionally-modeled data space. The items are mapped to the segments. The mapping is processed. Based on the mapping, the validity of the segmentation criteria is evaluated, and a result of the evaluation is reported.

11. A computer program product for validating segmentation criteria relative to a plurality of items organized according to a dimensionally-modeled data space, wherein each criterion nominally characterizes a segment comprising an area of interest of the dimensionally-modeled data space, the computer program product comprising at least one computer-readable medium having computer program instructions stored therein which are operable to cause the at least one computing device to:
-
map the items to the segments characterized by the segmentation criteria; process the mapping and evaluate, based thereon, validity of the segmentation criteria; and report a result of the evaluating. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
