Shuai Hu, Jing Zhang, Junhuai Li · 2010
Reporting Tool is one of the most prevalent applications in diversified fields. Most of the available commercial reporting tools often provide overabundant functions with complicated operating procedures, while users emphasis on ease of use and generation efficiency. Accordingly, we are presenting a pattern-directed design mode, in which a report can be designed by recombining reusable report elements. It will free users from the tuff design and thus greatly facilitate usability. Besides, a mid format is proposed to boost the two-phase outputs in runtime.
