Abstract: Task/resources are randomly assigned a number of times and a score for each solution of the random assignment is calculated. Using machine learning and artificial intelligence, a subset of the solutions is selected. Assignment of task/resource within the subset may be randomly changed, e.g., a task/resource assignment between two entities, a task/resource within the selected subset may be replaced with another task/resource (without swapping), etc. The additional solutions form a super solution with the selected subset and the score associated with the additional solutions are calculated. The process of selection of assignments, random changes to the assignment and calculating the scores associated with the new solutions is repeated a number of times until a certain condition is met, e.g., a number of iterations, time out, improvement between two iterations is less than a certain threshold, etc. Once the certain condition is satisfied, a solution is selected.

Abstract: The present application describes methods and systems for administration of a gamification system. Administrators can be separated into tiers, each with differing levels of control. Embodiments of the present disclosure include a system that receives, from an administrator, a request to generate a second gamification site and to copy content from a first gamification site to a second gamification site. The system then determines if the administrator is enabled to do so. If the administrator has the appropriate permission, the second gamification site may be generated, and the content from the first gamification site may be copied to the second gamification site.

The method may further include analyzing the collected data to determine one or more relationships among the plurality of users based at least in part on the interaction with the one or more content items by the plurality of users. The method may additionally include generating a behavior graph having a structure defined based at least in part on the determined relationships. A corresponding system, apparatus, and computer program product are also provided.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a data set. The data set includes a plurality of data subsets wherein each data subset is associated with one transaction in a fully or partially masked network. The method further includes processing each data subset according to a plurality of rules to generate a plurality of activation values and an output for the each data subset. The plurality of activation values and the output for the each data subset form an activation pattern for the each data subset. The method also includes generating a predictive model based on the activation patterns. The method further includes identifying a subset of transactions as outliers based on the predictive model.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for generating, by an adaptive wizard, a customized gamification system to a customer. The gamification system is a system of events and milestones that provides a means by which the customer can recognize and award desired behavior patterns in order to increase engagement with users. The adaptive wizard generates the gamification system based on customer input and/or observed user behavior on a customer website. The adaptive wizard receives the input and determines content of the gamification system. The adaptive wizard processes the inputs and develops the gamification system for implementation by the customer to assist in achieving customer enterprise goals.

Abstract: A system for inferring intent of visitors to a Website has a visitor-tracking application executing from a digital medium coupled to a server hosting the Website, the server connected to a repository adapted to store data about visitor behavior, and an inference engine for processing the data to infer the intent of visitors. Visitor behavior relative to links is tracked, and intent of a visitor is inferred from one or both, or a combination of analysis of the behavior and deducing meaning for anchor text of links selected.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes determining a content type in response to a user accessing a webpage and further based on a user attribute. In some embodiments, the user attribute may be related to a business organization that the user belongs to. In some embodiments, the method may further include determining relevant content to be displayed based on the determined content type, and transmitting webpage data including the relevant content for rendering on a device as a graphical user interface (GUI). In some embodiments, a method comprises of receiving a request to create a dynamic content component and identifying content to be displayed therein. In some embodiments, the method may further comprises customizing a look and feel of the dynamic content component based on the user attributes, and generating a code to display the dynamic content component in response to the user accessing a webpage.

Abstract: The invention provides a system and method for managing clusters of parallel processors for use by groups and individuals requiring supercomputer level computational power. A Beowulf cluster provides supercomputer level processing power. Unlike a traditional Beowulf cluster; however, cluster size in not singular or static. As jobs are received from users/customers, a Resource Management System (RMS) dynamically configures and reconfigures the available nodes in the system into clusters of the appropriate sizes to process the jobs. Depending on the overall size of the system, many users may have simultaneous access to supercomputer level computational processing. Users are preferably billed based on the time for completion with faster times demanding higher fees.
