Patent ID: 7818728

Claim:
A method for minimizing system resources used to decompress read-only compressed analytic data comprising the steps of: compiling a programming code for a relational database table on a load machine if there is a compiler installed on said load machine that is compatible with a compiler installed on a user's machine, wherein an i-code list associated with said relational database table is converted into said programming code; compiling said programming code for said relational database table on said user's machine if there is not a compiler installed on said load machine that is compatible with said compiler installed on said user's machine and if said compiler installed on said user's machine is compatible with said programming code; and installing on said user's machine a first package, wherein said first package comprises: compressed data for said relational database table; a control block for said relational database table, wherein said control block stores information regarding compression algorithms used to compress data in said relational database table, wherein said control block further stores algorithms and parameters used to decompress compressed data in said relational database table; said i-code list associated with said relational database table; said programming code; and said compiled programming code.
