A method for providing an evaluation/verification of the correctness of an ontology is described. The method includes loading a first ontology associated with a first rule set. an extended ontology and an extended rule set are generated based at least in part on the first ontology and the first rule set. The extended rule set is applied to the extended ontology. The method also includes determining (e.g., by a data processor) a correctness of the extended ontology. Results are generated which include the correctness. Apparatus and computer readable media are also described.

A polling method, online polling system and program product therefor. A system avatar unit creates, maintains and controls system avatars distributed throughout a virtual world. System avatars receive questions received from polling system clients. A dialogue module manages dialogs between system avatars presenting the questions to user avatars in the virtual world. A report generator generates reports responsive to responses given by user avatars to system avatars.

A rules-based circle graph rendering system and method includes creating a first matrix representing nodes subject to graph rendering and having values representing relationships of the nodes, populating a second matrix with values representing a measure of the relationships among the nodes, and computing a third matrix by subtracting values of the first matrix from corresponding values of the second matrix. The method also includes identifying subsets of invariant indices for degrees of the third matrix, partitioning a circle with segments proportionally corresponding to the subsets of the invariant indices, and populating the circle with the nodes based on the subsets of invariant indices and connecting nodes, via edges, with other nodes identified has having the relationships. The method also includes outputting a circle graph with the populated nodes and edges.

A method for voice browsing an integrated voice response server is described. The method includes visually displaying a representation of a choice tree for a service, where the service includes an audio menu of available actions. A selection of an action displayed in the representation is received. The method also includes automatically navigating the audio menu in order to initiate the selected action. Apparatus and computer readable media are also described.

In general, the present invention provides a method, system and program product for approximating/estimating computer resource consumption of a computer system. Specifically, under the present invention, a more efficient or reduced computer work gradient matrix (hereinafter “matrix”) is first built. This occurs by creating load measurements for a set of computer resource metrics of the computer system to analyze dependencies between different computer resource metrics. Then, a correlation matrix between the set of computer resource metrics is created based on the dependencies. The set of computer system resource metrics in the correlation matrix is thereafter clustered into a set of clusters, and a reduced matrix is built based thereon. Once the reduced matrix is built, it can be restored to a “full” matrix using linear transformation or the like.

Under the present invention, a computer work gradient matrix is built for each computer system that is interconnected in an environment. For each computer system for which resource consumption is desired to be predicted (e.g., “target” computer systems), a transition work cocycle is generated and provided to a master computer system. A set of task work paths will be constructed for the master computer system. Thereafter, an initial resource consumption value can be computed on the master computer system based on the computer work gradient matrix and the set of task work paths for the master computer system as well as a current background loading level that is being experienced by the target computer system. Then, using the initial resource consumption and the transition work cocycle for the target computer system(s), a resource consumption of the target computer system(s) can be predicted on the master computer system.

A method and system are disclosed for creating portfolios of requests so as to reduce or minimize the variance in the workloads generated by those requests. The invention also takes into account the throughput of the servers that are servicing the requests. In a preferred embodiment, the method comprises the steps of establishing a set of system parameters; using said parameters to generate a model, said model including a defined optimization problem; and solving said optimization problem to output a set of mixing weights. The set of parameters and said mixing weights are used to generate a task; and the service requests are distributed to different service teams according to the generated task. Also, for example, the distributing may be done by distributing requests of type i to team j with weight proportional to wij.

A method for extending the service life of a portable device includes monitoring a battery of a portable device; identifying a problem bank; reconfiguring a connection schema for the battery to replace the problem battery bank with at least one spare bank; conditioning or exercising the problem bank; connecting the portable device to a power supply to recharge the problem bank; and reconnecting the recharged or repaired bank according to the connection schema without the at least one spare bank. A method for extending the service life of a portable device includes monitoring power consumption of at least one of the hardware or software of a portable device; and reconfiguring the connection schema of the battery banks to redistribute power consumption of at least one of the hardware or software.
摘要:
Methods, apparatus and computer program products decompose a service process into service process operations; filter the service operations based on at least one pre-determined criterion; identify at least one different service process operation to be used to replace an existing service process operation; and replace the existing service process operation with the at least one different service process operation. The service process can be decomposed using specific service features derived from reference service processes. The pre-determined criterion used to filter the service operations can constitute a service level; a service category; or a service process feature. A service process feature describes core functionality of the service.

Techniques are provided for globalizing handling of service management items. The techniques include obtaining a service management item in a language convenient to a first of two or more actors, translating the service management item into a language-neutral format to obtain a language-neutral service management item, applying one or more annotators to the service management item, translating the language-neutral service management item into a language convenient to a second of two or more actors acting on the service management item, and routing the translated service management item to the second of two or more actors. Techniques are also provided for generating a database of service management items in a language-neutral format.
