摘要： A method and apparatus are disclosed for ranking the results of a document search by identifying a prior, similar search and assigning a weight to each document based on whether the document was selected by a user of the prior search. The assigned weights are utilized to rank the documents identified by the document search in order of their relevance to the search terms. The search terms of the document search and information describing the selections made by a user of the document search are then stored to facilitate the assignment of weights to documents in future searches. According to another aspect of the invention, the weight assigned to a document is correlated to a degree of closeness of search terms of a prior search and search terms of a new document search. For example, a degree of closeness measurement is defined that correlates to a number of synonyms common between the search terms of a prior search and the search terms of a new document search.

摘要翻译： 公开了一种方法和装置，用于通过基于先前搜索的用户是否选择了文档，通过识别先前的类似搜索和向每个文档分配权重来对文档搜索的结果进行排名。 分配的权重用于按照与搜索项的相关性的顺序对由文档搜索确定的文档进行排名。 然后存储文档搜索的搜索条件和描述用户对文档搜索进行的选择的信息，以便于将来的搜索中的文档的权重分配。 根据本发明的另一方面，分配给文档的权重与新文档搜索的先前搜索和搜索项的搜索项的接近程度相关。 例如，一定程度的亲密度测量被定义为与先前搜索的搜索词与新文档搜索的搜索词之间共同的多少同义词相关。

摘要： This invention introduces a method, system and computer readable media that enables a computer system or computer networked system to perform enterprise portfolio transition optimization. The invention considers several key factors that are traditionally treated informally. The invention provides a sequential decision model for enterprise portfolio transition management of computer and software resources. Using a finite state Markov Decision process, a mathematical formulation is developed to ensure an optimal enterprise portfolio transition plan, with the objective of balancing expected value and risk, that is solved numerically via an approximate dynamic programming algorithm. The output of the model is a set of recommendations in the form of a transition plan for each of the computer and software resources selected within the enterprise portfolio during each phase of a planning horizon.

摘要： A computer-implemented method for operating a business including operations to receive an enterprise model, define at least one new association between a first and a second business element in the enterprise model, federate a business analysis tool, and determine a business-related impact of the new association on other business elements in the enterprise model. The enterprise model is received at a model server and includes two or more business elements and a map of business components. The collection of business elements indicates associations between one or more business elements. The business analysis tools can filter the enterprise model and are federated by incorporating a business element generated from the business analysis tool into the enterprise model. The business-related impact is determined by using the business analysis tool.

摘要： A method for managing a business. At least one relationship is determined between N business components (B1, B2, . . . , BN) and respective N costs (C1, C2, . . . , CN) and respective N values (V1, V2, . . . , VN) pertaining to the N business components. The N business components are a subset of M business components (B1, B2, . . . , BM) of a Component Based Model (CBM) of the M business components subject to M≧2 and N≦M. Determining the at least one relationship includes relating business components of the CBM with an Information Technology (IT) model of an IT system. The IT model includes abstract IT structures, virtual IT structures, real IT structures, or combinations thereof.

摘要： A method and system are described for using business artifacts to identify elements of a component business model. Artifacts operated upon by the business are first identified, and then used to analyze the business into business operations. This is done by identifying every business activity that acts on an artifact, creating directed graphs for the business activities, and decomposing the directed graphs into sub-graphs, each sub-graph representing a business operation and being annotated by a verb expression, the annotated sub-graph representing a business service. The business services are then clustered into non-overlapping components, using common affinities reflected in the verb expressions, and organized by partitioning into internal and external operations, exposing a business service for each external operation. The components are then clustered into non-overlapping business competencies, and arranged by accountability level.

摘要： A method and system for enterprise monitoring maps monitor events to elements of a component business model of the enterprise and displays the mapped events using the component business model. Rules are used to determine whether events captured from a monitor source are monitor events. An enterprise monitor metamodel linking monitor artifacts and elements of a component business model is used to annotate monitor events with data from the component business model of the enterprise.

摘要： A system and method are described for using a Component Business Model (CBM) to transform a business. A CBM map is used to identify components that collaborate to provide a specified capability, and a repository supporting the CBM map is filtered to provide a view of the identified components that highlights how they collaborate. The view is used to identify component features contributing to the specified capability. The specified capability is then enhanced by a transformation strategy that includes re-engineering particular components, identifying a pattern characterizing the collaboration between components and adding a component to perform the collaborative pattern, and/or adding an additional feature to the collaboration and adding component to perform the additional feature. The CBM repository provides exemplar best practices that can be adapted for use in a re-engineered component.

摘要： A method and system are described for using the structure and relationships between components in a component business model of an enterprise to assign components providing monitoring data to a management component. In response to the monitoring data, the management component executes a business rule invoking a service that alters a behavior of the enterprise. The management component contains data rules limiting the information provided by the assigned components, analysis rules defining the interaction between components, and report rules for consolidating recommendations for altering behavior of the enterprise, including decisions to invest in certain aspects of the business, to reengineer certain processes of the business, and to alter operation of certain aspects of the business.
