Abstract:
For a user group to which a first user is assigned, a plurality of configuration settings on client devices used by respective other users in the user group can be identified. A respective homogeneity score can be assigned to each of the identified plurality of configuration settings. For each of the respective configuration settings, at least one configuration setting value can be selected as a candidate configuration setting value based on, at least in part, the homogeneity score assigned to each configuration setting. The candidate configuration setting value for each confirmation setting can be communicated to a client device used by the first user, wherein the client device sets at least one of the configuration settings with a respective candidate configuration setting value.
Abstract:
Methods provide cognitive management of multiple subaccounts wherein processors are configured to determine an expense type for an input of an expense event to a linked account structure that links subaccounts that are each associated to different respective ones of a plurality of group members. In response to determining that the input expense event expense type most-strongly matches an expense type of a nearby in time calendar expense, methods allocate expense costs of the input expense to member subaccounts pursuant to a first expense allocation rule utilized in the nearby calendar event for allocating expenses. In response to determining that the input expense event expense type does not match the expense types of a nearby calendar events, methods further allocate the input expense event costs pursuant to a second expense allocation rule selected as a function matching the input event expense type to behavior data of a member.
Abstract:
In one implementation, the present invention is directed to a method for controlling access to a software application using one or more processors configured by code, the method comprising repeating a usage verification cycle continually during a usage session of the software application, wherein each repetition of the usage verification cycle includes receiving a digital image of an access area used to access the software application, identifying a representation of one or more persons in the digital image, estimating an age of each one of the persons within the digital image, and comparing the estimated age of each one of the persons within the digital image to a predetermined age value provided in a usage policy dataset associated with at least of one of the persons within the digital image. The method further comprises interrupting the usage of the software application in response to the age of at least one of the persons within the digital image exceeding the predetermined age value provided in a usage policy dataset.
Abstract:
An embodiment directed to a method for providing a specified state at a premises to which a user travels. Comprises determining a time of operation needed by a device located at the premises to provide the specified state, after device activation. One or more positions of the user are detected when the user is within a boundary, the boundary being determined in part by the time of operation. Detected user positions are used to determine a time of arrival of the user at the premises. A time to activate the device is computed from the arrival time and time of operation, collectively, wherein activating the device at the computed time causes the specified state to be provided at a time that coincides with arrival of the user at the premises.
Abstract:
A system and related method exchange messages under the control of a messaging client. The method comprises splitting a content of a source message into a plurality of fragments defined by corresponding portions of its content associated with different recipients of the message. A plurality of transport messages are generated, each comprising one or more of the fragments associated with the recipients. The transport messages are submitted to a messaging server for causing it to provide the transport messages to corresponding further messaging clients of the recipients for their aggregation. A computer program and a computer program product for performing the method are also provided.

Abstract:
A driving mode decision support for a decision to select a driving mode of driving on at least one road segment is provided to a user of an autonomous vehicle. A driver driving profile of a user is received. Segment information defining the at least one road segment is queried. The segment information includes at least a model driver driving profile associated with the at least one road segment. A driving mode decision support for the user is determined for the at least one road segment based on the driver driving profile of the user and the model driver driving profile. An indication of the driving mode decision support is provided to the user. The driving mode decision support includes a recommended driving mode of driving on the at least one road segment.
Abstract:
A solution is proposed for managing one or more industrial products. A method, computer system, and computer program product for creating a reference model providing a formal representation of reference policies according to reference artifacts and creating corresponding activity models providing a formal representation of activities (to be performed on the industrial products) according to corresponding activity artifacts; alignment indicators indicative of an alignment of the activities with the reference policies are calculated according to a comparison between the corresponding activity models and the reference model.
Abstract:
A tool for distress management. The tool determines a level of distress associated with a user. The tool identifies a next action to be performed by the user. The tool determines a level of distress associated with the next action. The tool determines whether the associated level of distress exceeds a predetermined threshold. Responsive to a determination that the associated level of distress exceeds the predetermined threshold, the tool alerts the user of an impact to the level of distress associated with the user.
