Abstract: A method for storing data caveats for databases is described. The method includes storing at least one record in at least one content table in a database. The method includes storing at least one data caveat having a relationship to the content table in at least one record in a caveat table. A data caveat has a relationship to the content table when the data caveat applies to: a record in the content table or the content table in entirety. The method also includes storing, in a memory device, an indication of the relationship. Articles of manufacture are also described.

Abstract: A system for verifying compliance, comprises an input device including a radio-frequency identification (RFID) reader module, wherein the RFID reader module is capable of determining that an RFID tag corresponding to a medication dose in a product packaging is not detectable, and recording a time of the determination that the RFID tag is not detectable, a network, and a data management service module which is capable of receiving from the input device via the network information corresponding to the RFID tag and the time when the RFID tag was determined not detectable.

Abstract: A navigation to a plurality of visited web sites is traced and a navigation map is generated comprised of a node for each visited web site. Each node in the navigation map is connected by an edge to at least one other node in the navigation map, and the edge is associated with the link from the given visited web site to the next web site. For each visited web site, the corresponding node stores an address for the given web site, a time stamp of the visit to the given visited web site, a link from the given visited web site to a next web site and optionally a title of the web site. A keyword search of the nodes can be processed to identify a given web site in the navigation map. A signature portion of the given web site can be used to identify a new location of the given web site. A navigation map can be designated as a searchable public navigation map.

Abstract: A method for configuring multiple lifecycles, and associating each lifecycle with one or more subcategories of items includes receiving a request for a state change for an item in a current state; determining if the item's current state exists in the located lifecycle; wherein if the current state does not exist in the located lifecycle, the current state is updated with a series of update rules; determining if the current state has flags; wherein the flags are checked for one or more protection rules; generating a list of target states; receiving a user selected target state from the generated list; checking the selected target state for one or more associated protection rules; recording a state change for the selected target state in response to the satisfaction of the one or more associated protection rules, and if no protection rules are found; and propagating the state change.

Abstract: In the context of problems associated with self-healing in autonomic computer systems, and particularly, the problem of fast and efficient real-time diagnosis in large-scale distributed systems, a “divide-and-conquer” approach to diagnostic tasks is disclosed. Preferably, parallel (i.e., multi-thread) and distributed (i.e., multi-machine) architectures are used, whereby the diagnostic task is preferably divided into subtasks and distributed to multiple diagnostic engines that collaborate with each other in order to reach a final diagnosis. Each diagnostic engine is preferably responsible for some subset of system components (its “region”) and performs the diagnosis using all available observation about these components. When the regions do not intersect, the diagnostic task is trivially parallelized.
