1. A computer implemented method for aggregating data, the computer implemented method comprising:
- parsing data for a behavior tag assigned to a portion of the data;
responsive to detecting a behavior tag, determining if a policy is associated with the behavior tag, wherein the policy defines how the portion of the data assigned to the behavior tag is to be aggregated; and
aggregating the portion of the data using the policy.

Abstract
A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code to aggregate data. Data is parsed for a behavior tag assigned to a portion of the data. In response to detecting a behavior tag, a determination is made as to whether a policy is associated with the behavior tag. The policy associated with a behavior tag defines how the portion of the data assigned to the behavior tag is to be aggregated. The portion of the data is aggregated using the policy associated with the behavior tag.

10. A computer implemented method for aggregating data, the computer implemented method comprising:
-
parsing for a behavior tag assigned to a portion of the data;
responsive to detecting a behavior tag, wherein the behavior tag includes a plurality of sub-tags, determining if a policy is associated with respective ones of the plurality of sub-tags of the behavior tag, wherein each policy defines how the portion of the data assigned to the behavior tag is to be aggregated; and
aggregating the portion of the data using at least one policy. - View Dependent Claims (11)

12. A computer program product comprising:
a computer usable medium including computer usable program code for aggregating data, said computer program product comprising;
computer usable program code for parsing data for a behavior tag assigned to a portion of the data;
computer usable program code for, responsive to detecting a behavior tag, determining if a policy is associated with the behavior tag, wherein the policy defines how the portion of the data assigned to the behavior tag is to be aggregated; and

18. A system for aggregating data, said system comprising:
-
a data aggregator wherein the data aggregator parses data for a behavior tag assigned to a portion of the data; and
a rules engine wherein, responsive to data aggregator detecting a behavior tag, the rules engine determines if a policy is associated with the behavior tag, and wherein the policy defines how the portion of the data assigned to the behavior tag is to be aggregated by the data aggregator; and
wherein the data aggregator aggregates the portion of the data using the policy. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
