Abstract: A method implements a virtual machine for interactive visual analysis. The method receives a data visualization data flow graph, which is a directed graph including data nodes and transform nodes. Each transform node specifies a set of inputs for retrieval, where each input corresponds to a data node. Each transform node also specifies a transform operator, which identifies an operation to be performed on the inputs. Some transform nodes specify (a) a set of outputs corresponding to respective data nodes and (b) a function for use in performing the operation of the transform node. The method traverses the data flow graph according to directions of arcs between nodes in the data flow graph, thereby retrieving data corresponding to each data node and executing the respective transformation operator specified for each of the transform nodes. This generates a data visualization according to transform nodes that specify graphical rendering.

Abstract: A system time window corresponding to data to be processed is determined based on a data time of the data to be processed when the data to be processed is received in a current system time window. If the data time is within a range of the current system time window, data to be processed having a system receiving time earlier than the synchronization time point is stored, and data to be processed having a system receiving time later than the synchronization time point is immediately processed. If the data time is within a range of a previous system time window, data to be processed having a system receiving time earlier than the closing time point is immediately processed, and data to be processed having a system receiving time later than the closing time point is discarded.

Abstract: Described is a system and method for enabling dynamic selection of a search input. For example, rather than having a static search input box, the search input may be dynamically positioned such that it encompasses a portion of displayed information. For example, a user may touch a touch-based display using two fingers to invoke the dynamic search input and then determine a size and a position of the dynamic search input by moving their fingers on the display. An image segment that includes a representation of the encompassed portion of the displayed information is generated and processed to determine an object represented in the portion of the displayed information. Additional images with visually similar representations of objects are then determined and presented to the user.

Abstract: Techniques for searching a character string involve: determining a first set of documents including a first token in the character string, and a second set of documents including a second token in the character string; and generating a third set of documents based on the first and second sets of documents, in the third set of documents: i) a document being included in the first and second sets of documents, and ii) a distance between the first and second tokens in the document being equal to a distance between the first and second tokens in the character string.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments relate to techniques for representing conversations in a messaging system, where content serves as the organizing feature or primitive of a messaging inbox. In the messaging inbox, content may be aggregated in two hierarchical tiers: first, on a per-sender basis, and second on a per-content basis. Conversational threads may be stored in buckets represented by a relationship tuple (sender, receiver). Individual content threads may be represented by a thread identifier of the structure (content ID, sender, receiver). One piece of content may be associated with multiple conversations through the thread ID. Replies may be organized in a hierarchy under the thread ID tuple. Content ephemerality may be implemented by tying the content identifier to ephemerality conditions. Different users may view the content at different times, since the thread ID tuple can be removed from a sender bucket without removing the associated content.

Abstract: A Searchable Application Representation is generated with the exact structure, content, functionality, and behavior of the Native Mobile Applications and is searchable by Search Engines by providing metadata pointing to the Native Mobile Applications. The Search Engine searches the Searchable Application Representation. When the Search Engine finds the Searchable Application Representation, Pointer, Metadata and Search Material to Corresponding Native Mobile Application on the Internet, the Search Engine becomes aware of the Native Mobile Application and can search the Content contained in the Searchable Application Representation. The Search Engine finds and ranks Content in the Searchable Representation and Pointer, Metadata, and Search Material corresponding to such Content in the Native Mobile Application is passed to the Search Engine, which can use such information to determine the relevancy of such Content according to a certain Search Criteria.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a cognitive intelligence system and computer program product adapt a relational database containing multiple data types. Non-text tokens in the relational database are converted to a textual form. Text is produced based on relations of tokens in the relational database. A set of pre-trained word vectors for the text is retrieved from an external database. The set of pre-trained word vectors is initialized for tokens common to both the relational database and an external database. The set of pre-trained vectors is used to create a cognitive intelligence query expressed as a structure query language (SQL) query. Content of the relational database is used for training while initializing the set of pre-trained word vectors for tokens common to both the relational database and the external database. The first set of word vectors may be immutable or mutable with updates controlled via parameters.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a data information processing method. A storage space corresponding to an organization is disposed in a data storage system. A data processing request type, the storage partition in which a project sending a data processing request is located, and the storage partition of the target data information corresponding to the data processing request are acquired when the data processing request is received. Subsequently, a processing strategy matching the storage partitions and the type is acquired. Finally, the target data information is processed according to the processing strategy and the data processing request. Thus, the isolation and rights control of different data in the same storage space can be achieved, and the security and mobility of data can be ensured.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for monitoring and logging all activity occurring in a system. The logged activity may include keystroke entries input into the system, user and/or application interactions with the system, access restriction conflicts, and the like. The logged activity may be stored in at least two datastores, at least one of which is an immutable, append-only datastore. Storage of the logged activity in the immutable, append-only datastore is performed using hash algorithms. Attempts at manipulating or at hiding malicious or unauthorized activity can be recognized due to all activity being captured in the immutable, append-only datastore.

Abstract: Systems, components, devices, and methods for synchronizing files between a local file system and a server are provided. In an example, synchronization of individual files is paused by placing the individual files in a hold state. A non-limiting example method accesses a file stored on the local file system for synchronization with an associated file on the server and determines whether differences between the file and the associated file prevent synchronization. When determined that differences between the file and the associated file prevent synchronization, the method places the file in a hold state. The hold state pauses synchronization of the content in the file with the content of the associated file. In some examples, the method continues to synchronize topological changes to files that have been placed in the hold state and/or resumes synchronization after it is determined that the file is no longer different than the associated file.

Abstract: An event processing system for distributing a continuous query, and processing events in an event stream, is disclosed. The system can synchronize timestamps across all partitions by adding a heartbeat propagator component propagating a heartbeat signal for silent partitions. The system can further include a timestamp tracker component that tracks the maximum observed timestamp across all partitions for each batch, and sends this to each partition. The system can distribute partitions of the events to the worker nodes, and instruct a heartbeat propagator component to generate a heartbeat for a first worker node corresponding to an event in a different partition. The system receives outputs from the worker nodes and combines these into a single result corresponding to a continuous query. The system can further implement a timestamp tracker to select a highest timestamp value of a previous batch, and send the value to the worker nodes.

Abstract: A database management system according to an embodiment includes a first node and a plurality of second nodes. The first node receives a query for requesting data from a client terminal and transmits the received query to any one of a plurality of second nodes in accordance with conditions. The plurality of second nodes acquire data by performing processing based on the query received from the first node and transmit the acquired data to the first node. The first node holds range information indicating a range of data held in each of the second nodes and does not transmit the query to the second nodes when the range of data to be retrieved for the query is not a range indicated by the range information.

Abstract: A system may include a shared storage data store containing a first version of entities with original content and a local tenant storage data store to contain information associated with a tenant's application server. A database interface agent may enter a copy-on-access mode and maintain materialization and modification flags. The agent may then initiate an upgrade process during which the first version of the entities are utilized by the application server. The agent may then enter a copy-on-write mode and delete, from the local tenant storage data store, entities having flags that indicate the table was migrated but did not receive customer data. The structure of the remaining entities may then be updated in view of the structure of the second version of the entities. Finally, the content of the entities may be updated in view of the content of the second version of entitles and previously received customer data.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed which employ a centralized selection context having selection states spread across user interface elements. Methods are described in which the binding between widgets and data storage is isolated using the centralized selection context paradigm for a majority of data items represented within a user interface. This selection context is fully accessible by methods that access data while considering the current selection context. The centralized selection context simplifies event-handling logic by having selection context readily available thus removing the need to query individual widgets for their state.
