摘要： The present invention provides for systems and methods that facilitate conveying user information between and among users effectively to thereby create a collaborative filtering environment with maintained user privacy. More specifically, the present invention allows user-profile building to occur coincident with user-browsing, for example. This can be accomplished in part by incorporating an input component on the user interface used for browsing and/or searching. A user who has opted-in to construct a personal profile makes declarations regarding his relationship with at least a portion of the information being currently viewed. The declarations are annotated to the user's profile. At the user's discretion, the user's profile can be disseminated to others in whole or in part such that other people can make use of the user's expertise, experience or opinions. In addition, the user profiles can be machine-readable and searchable.

摘要： Systems and methods are provided that enable searches of social networks by acting as a “compass” that assists users in navigating the social network. Individual user participation is not required in response to queries from other users. The systems and methods offer navigational assistance or information as opposed to a traditional search which returns requested information, thus currently acceptable social mechanisms for arbitrating trust can be exploited. As a result, users do not make their personal information publicly searchable, while at the same time, they are protected from potential misrepresentations of facts.

摘要翻译： 提供了系统和方法，其可以通过作为帮助用户导航社交网络的指南针来搜索社交网络。 响应来自其他用户的查询，不需要个人用户参与。 系统和方法提供导航帮助或信息，而不是返回请求信息的传统搜索，因此可以利用可接受的仲裁信任的社会机制。 因此，用户不能将他们的个人信息公开搜索，同时保护他们免受事实潜在的错误陈述。

摘要： The invention relates to an architecture that facilitates load balancing among a plurality of hosts and preserve session affinity to a given host. An incoming stream of data packets that include packet sessions is input to one or more forwarding mechanisms for forwarding to one or more hosts. The forwarders generate a routing function that takes into consideration host availability, and distributes session packets according to the routing function. A session is distributed to the same host to preserve session affinity. When host availability changes, a new routing function is generated, such that any new session is routed according to the new routing function and existing sessions are routed according to the old routing function. When the old routing function becomes irrelevant, it is phased out. An optimization utilizes a maximally backward compatible hash function to minimize the differences between the old and new routing functions.

摘要： Methods and systems of testing software and modeling user actions are described. In some embodiments, multiple different algorithms are provided for operating on a software model. The software model describes behavior associated with software that is to be tested. Different sets of algorithms can be selected for operating on the software model to produce a sequence of test actions that are to be used to test the software. The algorithms can be mixed and matched to achieve a desired testing result. In some embodiments, the different algorithms comprise deterministic algorithms, random algorithms, and various types of algorithms therebetween. In one embodiment, the software model comprises a state graph having nodes that represent state, and links between the nodes that represent actions. The different algorithms that are available for selection can have different graph traversal characteristics such that the state graph can be traversed in different manners. For example, algorithms that are more local in their traversals can be teamed with algorithms that are more global in their traversals, thus covering a wider area of the state space with good local coverage in some areas.

摘要： Methods and systems for finding a low rank approximation for an m×n matrix A are described. The described embodiments can independently sample and/or quantize the entries of an input matrix A, and can thus speed up computation by reducing the number of non-zero entries and/or their representation length. The embodiments can be used in connection with Singular Value Decomposition techniques to greatly benefit the processing of high-dimensional data sets in terms of storage, transmission and computation.
