Abstract:
A method for profiling information technology (IT) service contract risks and generating contract prices includes analyzing historical IT service contract risk data to create a set of IT service contract risk profiles, where the historical IT service contract risk data includes contract risks and percent gross profit associated with a historical set of contracts, where each IT service contract risk profile is a probability distribution function of achieving a percent gross profit associated with a subset of contracts corresponding to particular set of contract risk values, and creating a mapping between a particular IT service contract risk profile and a new IT service contract associated with the set of contract risk values for the IT service contract risk profile to determine an optimum price for the new IT service contract.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A method (which can be computer implemented) fox inferring component associations among a plurality of components in a distributed computing system includes the steps of obtaining status information fox each pertinent component of the plurality of components, forming an N by D matrix, X, based on the status information, and factorizing the matrix X to obtain a first matrix indicative of the component associations to be inferred and a second matrix indicative of failure explanations for corresponding ones of the probe instances. N is a number of probe instances associated with a given time flame. D is a number of the plurality of components fox which the associations are to be inferred. Techniques are also presented for forming a database with the status information.
Abstract:
A method for monitoring a network includes: identifying a plurality of groups of devices in a network, wherein each of the plurality of groups of devices is a set of related devices; sampling a status of a group of nodes in each of the plurality of groups of devices, wherein each of the plurality of groups of devices has a plurality of groups of nodes; and determining a status of the network based on the sampled status of the group of nodes in each of the plurality of groups of devices.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided for improved issue resolution in an expert network. For example, a method comprises the following steps. Information is extracted comprising: content of one or more historical records associated with resolutions of one or more previous issues; and transfer routing sequences indicating routes through routing entities in an expert network that the one or more previous issues passed in order to be respectively resolved. A model is computed based on at least a portion of the extracted information, wherein the computed model statistically captures one or more ticket transfer patterns among routing entities in the expert network. One or more future issue resolution routing recommendations are determined based on at least one of the one or more ticket transfer patterns captured by the computed model.
Abstract:
A computer implemented method that analyzes and improves a dial plan. A dial plan design template system receives an existing dial plan. The dial plan design template system models the existing dial plan as a directed graph. The dial plan design template system analyzes the directed graph to determine compliance with a set of edge rules. The dial plan design template system analyzes the directed graph to determine compliance with a set of connectivity type rules.
