Abstract: A set of components is computed from performing NLP on a question in an input. An actual answer is computed corresponding to the question by a cognitive system. the actual answer corresponds to an actual subset of the set of components, and an expected answer corresponds to an expected subset of the subset of components. The actual answer is mapped to an actual category in a hierarchy of answer categories. A distance between the expected answer and the actual answer is computed where the distance is a function of a path in the hierarchy from the actual category to the expected category, and a degree of correctness of the actual answer is another function of the distance. A self-learning operation in the cognitive system causes a revised actual answer on the question being at a shorter distance from the expected answer.

Abstract: A first category is determined of a first task being performed at a given time. A first asset that is configured for use with the first category is identified. A next task object is constructed. By analyzing a set of tasks that were performed during a period prior to the given time, a candidate next task is identified. The candidate next task has been performed sometime after a previous performance of the first task during the period. From the first asset, a link to a second asset is selected. The second asset is configured for use with a second category of the candidate next task. The next task object is populated with the link. The candidate next task is designated as a second task that will occur sometime after the first task.

Abstract: A session initiation with an information system is detected, the session including a search for a data item in the information system. In an application executing using a processor and a memory, a node is constructed in a search tree, the node representing a search-related step occurring in the session. The node is configured with at least a search term used in the search and a context within which the search is performed using the search term. The node is positioned relative to a second node in the search tree, where the second node corresponds to a second search that was performed prior to the search in the session. The search tree is output as a part of a search journal corresponding to the session.

Abstract: A method and system are provided. The method includes providing an actionable business entity operating model. The method further includes extending the actionable business entity operating model to drive user interface behavior on a user interface device having at least a display device, by extending class and property meta classes of the actionable business entity operating model to include user interface behavior semantics. The extending step includes configuring the user interface behavior semantics to be responsive to an operation state of the actionable business entity operating model.

Abstract: Methods and systems may provide for computing the complexities of tasks in a business process management system based on business and process data, and previous durations taken to compute similar tasks. The system and method may also categorize the skill level of one or more users based on user history and other metadata, and use the skill level and task complexity to correlate a task with one or more users that are suitable to complete the task within a related service level agreement. Tasks may be adaptively assigned to users in order to ensure that the tasks are completed as required by the SLA, assigned to less skilled users to improve their skills, and/or dynamically reassigned to ensure that the requirements of the SLA are met. Additionally, the system and method may also be used to manually configure complexities of a task and tag users based on skill level.

Abstract: A problem context is computed from an input at an application. The problem context includes a set of problem factors, the input including a problem to be solved using a cognitive system. A user context is computed from the input at the application, the user context including a set of user factors. A type of media is determined corresponding to a complexity of a cognitive solution received from the cognitive system, where the cognitive solution is in response to the problem. Using a problem factor from the set of problem factors, using a user factor in the set of user factors, and the complexity, a mode of communication is determined. A communication apparatus is adjusted to cause a data communication to occur and deliver the cognitive solution in the type of media using the mode of communication.

Abstract: A category is determined of a task being planned at a given time. A collection of assets is identified, the collection having been used in a similar task at a past time. An experience report associated with an asset in the collection is extracted into a set of encapsulated experience reports, where the experience report was generated from the similar task at the past time. A degree of usability is computed corresponding to the collection, the collection being usable in the category of the task up to the degree of usability. According to the degree of usability of the collection, the collection is positioned in a sorted list of reusable assets. A reusable asset is selected from the sorted list for use in the task.
