摘要:
A method of analyzing physiological data streams. According to the method, physiological data is received into a computerized machine. The physiological data comprises numerical data and medical symptoms of a patient. Features are extracted from the physiological data based on development of the physiological data over a period of time. The features are converted into a textual representation using natural language generation. Input terms for an information retrieval system operating on the computerized machine are automatically generated based on the features. The input terms are input to the information retrieval system. A corpus of data is automatically searched to retrieve results to the input terms using the information retrieval system.

Techniques for dynamically modifying inter-connections between components in an application are provided. The techniques include receiving a data producer profile for each output port within a software application to be executed on one or more processors, receiving a data subscription profile for each input port of each component of the application, establishing connections between the output ports and the input ports of the components in the application based on a comparison of each data producer profile and each data subscription profile, executing the application on one or more processors to process streams of data, receiving either or both of a new data producer profile or a new data subscription profile during the execution of the application, and establishing at least one new connection between an output port and an input port based upon a revised comparison of the received data profiles that include the new data profile.

A method, system, and computer program product for implementing stream processing are provided. The system includes an application framework and applications containing dataflow graphs managed by the application framework running on a first network. The system also includes at least one circuit switch in the first network having a configuration that is controlled by the application framework, a plurality of processing nodes interconnected by the first network over one of wireline and wireless links, and a second network for providing at least one of control and additional data transfer over the first network. The application framework reconfigures circuit switches in response to monitoring aspects of the applications and the first network.

A system and method for optimizing a storage system to support short data object lifetimes and highly utilized storage space are provided. With the system and method, data objects are clustered based on when they are anticipated to be deleted. When an application stores data, the application provides an indicator of the expected lifetime of the data, which may be a retention value, a relative priority of the data object, or the like. Data objects having similar expected lifetimes are clustered together in common data structures so that clusters of objects may be deleted efficiently in a single operation. Expected lifetimes may be changed by applications automatically. The system automatically determines how to handle these changes in expected lifetime using one or more of copying the data object, reclassifying the container in which the data object is held, and ignoring the change in expected lifetime for a time to investigate further changes in expected lifetime of other data objects.
摘要:
A method for automating contract negotiation between a plurality of parties over a communications network. The parties communicate and agree upon a negotiation protocol before commencing the negotiation in a meta contract that is formed to govern or control the negotiation process. The automatic negotiation may include at least one sub negotiation. Machine-executable rules are specified to enable an automatic negotiation to take place between servers over a communications network. A successful negotiation may result in the formation of an electronic commerce contract. Each party may maintain the contract state of the overall negotiation, which may take place among two or more parties, wherein at least one party may be represented by a broker. Thus, complex negotiations may be handled automatically by the inventive method. The negotiation may be conducted semi-automatically to allow for human intervention in the negotiation process.

Improved techniques for privacy preserving data mining of multidimensional data records are disclosed. For example, a technique for generating at least one output data set from at least one input data set for use in association with a data mining process comprises the following steps/operations. At least one relevant attribute of the at least one input data set is selected through determination of at least one relevance coefficient. The at least one output data set is generated from the at least one input data set, wherein the at least one output data set comprises the at least one relevant attribute of the at least one input data set, as determined by use of the at least one relevance coefficient.
摘要:
The present invention is a method and apparatus for safe ontology reasoning. In one embodiment, a method for building safe sub-ontology that includes one or more elements of a given ontology includes designating at least one the elements as a sensitive element, where a sensitive element is an element not to be revealed. The method then designates a safe sub-ontology such that the safe sub-ontology does not include any elements that, alone or in combination, allow inference of a sensitive element, in accordance with one or more given inference rules. In another embodiment, a method for building a potential sub-ontology includes designating at least one of the elements as a sensitive element and including a maximal number of the elements in the potential sub-ontology, wherein the maximal number includes the greatest number of elements that can be revealed, cumulatively, without allowing inference of a sensitive element, in accordance with one or more given inference rules.

The present invention comprises a method of relating characteristics gleaned by monitoring application transaction flows (and the decomposition thereof) to produce performance metrics useful to characterize the efficiency and performance of web transactions used in a web-based application. These metrics can assist application designers and developers in reorganizing their application content, programs, and transports to provide improved service to their consumer. Events are generated and composed into predefined activities on a web transaction basis. The performance metric is then derived that entails a relationship between at least two different activities that gives insight into the performance characteristics of the web transaction. By using the derived performance metrics, designers and developers of web pages can judge the effects of changes to their application relative to efficiency and performance. Different applications can also be compared and contrasted using these metrics. Furthermore, these metrics may serve as inputs to planning models used to project capacity, throughput, response time, and availability of the application.

A system and method for processing an information unit/packet (IU) in a stream processing system includes decomposing an IU into sub-information units persisted other than in the IU. An index or reference is generated in the IU for retrieving the persisted sub-information units during processing.
