TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a data elevation architecture for automatically and dynamically surfacing to a user interface (UI) context-specific data based on specific workflow or content currently being worked on by a user.

TL;DR: In this article, a data catalog is created that uses a schema for the data elements and a set of relationships, attributes and values that further define data elements, all stored as metadata about the data element.

Abstract: A unified workspace (UWS) design that provides a single system-wide display and interaction surface, and a set of tools that allow a user to discover relevant information. Data is surfaced across boundaries of applications and documents and stored implicitly from preset business logic or explicitly from user demand. Data can be implicitly and explicitly queried and aggregated from many different data sources such as various content types that are created in different formats and displayed on a single interaction surface. The UWS surfaces the required application functionalities to perform the tasks by partial launch of the associated application. Data elevation surfaces only the relevant amount of information, based on the context and activity, to assist the completion and decisionmaking process. Private and shared workspaces can be employed with object passing therebetween. The UWS provides a visual representation of each element such as information or relationship and allows direct user interaction.

TL;DR: In this article, a retailer can access the demonstration service and select various content to include in demonstration experiences for various groups of demonstration devices in a retailer environment, and the device attempts to obtain the content from another device in the same retailer environment.

TL;DR: In this article, a retailer can access the demonstration service and select various content to include in demonstration experiences for various groups of demonstration devices in a retailer environment, allowing each demonstration device to present a demonstration experience as defined by the retailer.
