  • Publication number: 20240069931
    Abstract: A method and architecture for using dynamically loaded plugins is described herein. The dynamically loaded plugin architecture comprises a parent context and a plugin repository. The parent context may define one or more reusable software components. The plugin repository may store one or more plugins. When a plugin is loaded, a child context may be created dynamically. The child context is associated with the plugin and inherits the one or more reusable software components from the parent context.

  • Publication number: 20230409609
    Abstract: A data relationships storage platform for analysis of one or more data sources is described herein. A data processing system may be communicatively coupled to one or more data sources and one or more big-data databases. One or more collectors may collect data pieces from the one or more data sources. One or more analyzer may analyze the collected data pieces to determine whether one or more relationships exist between the collected data pieces. The analysis results in one or more data globs that include one or more of the data pieces and relationship information, such as tags. The tagged data globs may be communicated to and stored in one or more big-data databases.

  • Publication number: 20230342758
    Abstract: Usage tracking NFTs (UT-NFTs) provide a protocol and an exchange for scalable content distribution and tracking. The protocol provides programmable UT-NFTs that can link multiple layers of content. As the UT-NFTs are used, the content providers are paid via a cyptocurrency exchange. The exchange dictates and controls the dynamic pricing of content according to how instrumental the content is to the activities of the end user.

  • Publication number: 20230273929
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method performed at a server system having one or more processors and memory, the method comprising receiving a set of curated documents comprising one or more documents identified as being relevant to a sector, analyzing the set of curated documents to determine one or more words and a count of each of the one or more words for all documents of the curated set of documents, further analyzing the set of curated documents, by analyzing one or more n-grams based on the one or more words, determining a first score based on a term frequency and a global document frequency of each of the one or more words of each of the one or more n-grams, determining a document vector based on averages of the first score, where the document vector comprises a perfect document for the sector, and storing the document vector in the data store.

  • Publication number: 20230041672
    Abstract: An enterprise data processing module and method are described herein. The enterprise data processing module comprises at least one collector and at least one analyzer. The collectors may be operable to collect data pieces from a plurality of data sources. The analyzers may be operable to analyze the collected data pieces to determine cross-source relationships that exist between the data pieces collected from the plurality of sources. The analyzed data pieces may be stored in one or more big-data databases as blocks of data according to the cross-source relationships.
