Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for efficiently selecting compressors for data compression are described. In various embodiments, a computing system includes at least one processor and multiple codecs such as one or more hardware codecs and one or more software codecs executable by the processor. The computing system receives a workload and processes instructions, commands and routines corresponding to the workload. One or more of the tasks in the workload are data compression tasks. Current condition(s) are determined during the processing of the workload by the computing system. Conditions are determined to be satisfied based on comparing current selected characteristics to respective thresholds. In one example, when the compressor selector determines a difference between a target compression ratio and an expected compression ratio of the first codec exceeds a threshold, the compressor selector switches from hardware codecs to software codecs.

Abstract: An improvement to the timespan for processing very large data sets using fuzzy logic to analyze billions of combinations of characters to enable an early detection of identity masking corresponding to new account fraud is provided. An identity masking fraud detection system is provided that receives new client data records including identifying information, compares the identifying information against prior user profiles stored in a database, determines when a prior user profile is matched with the identity information in the new client data record, and flags the new client data record and corresponding prior user profile as suspicious when an unresolved transaction is identified in associated with the prior user profile. The system prompts the new client user for additional identification information to verify that the new client user is not associated with the prior user profile or for the new client user to resolve the unresolved transaction.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of a device that manages a thermal profile of a device by selectively throttling central processing unit operations of the device is described. The device manages a thermal profile of the device by adjusting a throttling a central processing unit execution of a historically high energy consuming task. In this embodiment, the device monitors thermal level of the thermal profile of the device, the device is executing a plurality of tasks that utilize a plurality of processing cores of the device. If the thermal level of the device exceeds a thermal threshold, the device identifies one of the plurality of tasks as a historically high energy consuming task, and throttles this historically high energy consuming task by setting a force idle execution time for the historically high energy consuming task. The device further executes the plurality of tasks.

Abstract: A network node and method for enhancing message communication between a first network node and a second network node in a communication network is provided. The first network node receives an input message from the second network node wherein the input message contains at least one parameter. The first network node then identifies in the received input message the presence of the at least one parameter, wherein the parameter is unknown to the first network node.
