ABSTRACT:
This disclosure is directed to novel solutions for processing data in a manner similar to that employed by traditional spreadsheet applications (including, merely by way of example, evaluating expressions, producing reports and the like) without the need for a spreadsheet application. In an aspect, a spreadsheet calculation engine might be emulated in a Java environment, allowing for enhanced data input/output flexibility while still maintaining the ease with which traditional spreadsheet applications allow users to design a calculation model. In another aspect, the spreadsheet engine might be provided on a web server, database server and/or application server, allowing for data (including, for instance, reports comprising data processed and/or produced by the spreadsheet calculation engine) to be published easily (and, in some cases dynamically) on the web.
