摘要:
A method (and structure) of planning allocation of life cycle resources for a system including a plurality of components whereby the system inherits attributes from its components according to its structural architecture and in terms of an uncertainty of usage in operation.
摘要:
A method and system for predicting resource requirements of a current service engagement by modeling records of past service engagements to create and classify templates of service resource usage. This is done by clustering past engagements into groups having similar time series requirements for service resources. A service resource template for the current service engagement is generated from a classified template by using characteristics of the current service engagement to select a group of which the current service engagement is a likely member. The corresponding template is then customized to fit the characteristics of the current service engagement. The invention may be implemented using Hidden Markov Models. An aspect of the invention is use of dynamic time warping to quantify dissimilarity between engagement sequences prior to fitting Hidden Markov Models. Another aspect of the invention is removal of outliers from the clustered groups.

A governing modeling system maintains information associated with an analytic model. One or more policies may be defined that are associated with the analytic model and one or more instances of the analytic model. The system may monitor the analytic model and the one or more instances of the analytic model based on at least some of the information, the one or more policies associated with the analytic model and the one or more policies associated with the one or more instances of the analytic model.
摘要:
A system (and method, and method for deploying computing infrastructure) for identifying the impact of a business action on a financial performance of a company, including performing a retrospective analysis of a plurality of example companies taking a business action, wherein the retrospective analysis is based on features of the plurality of companies in a predetermined pre-action time period and a predetermined post-action time period in the absence of definitive knowledge concerning when the impact will occur within the post-action time frame, and, moreover, predicting the impact of the business action on a new company.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for analyzing usage of printers. A method in accordance with an embodiment includes: obtaining from at least one printer information about a plurality of print tasks performed by each printer, wherein the information about print tasks at least contains information of print requesters, print document attributes, and print time of each of the print tasks; and transforming the information about print tasks into an organizational representation based on information of organizational structure containing the print requesters. In the present invention, entities having a costly pattern are identified by mining historical usage data of the printers, thus driving the redesign of business process associated with the entities, performing print policies optimization on each entity associated with the printers based on the mined historical usage data, thereby reducing unnecessary paper consumption.
