COLLABORATIVE AND PERSONALIZED STORAGE AND SEARCH IN HIERARCHICAL ABSTRACT DATA ORGANIZATION SYSTEMS
Publication number: 20160103848Abstract: A method in a data processing system and apparatus for organizing files, data items, web site members, or web pages, structured or unstructured, of multiple users stored across one or more server computers into hierarchical file structures on a recordable medium of a data processing system. A user-defined metalabel is assigned to each of the electronic files, data items, web site members, or web pages. The electronic files, data items, web site members, or web pages are organized as a function of the metalabels into the hierarchical file structures. The method includes automatically forming personalized hierarchies, such as a shadow copy for a second user, from the user-defined metalabels of a first user according to a user profile. The method includes automatically forming keywords of strings of at least two user-defined metalabels or a portion thereof, and automatically forming search structures of the keywords existing simultaneously with the plurality of hierarchical structures.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 9, 2015Publication date: April 14, 2016Applicant: Illinois Institute of TechnologyInventors: Ophir FRIEDER, Sanjiv KAPOOR -

Patent number: 8626792Abstract: A method in a data processing system and apparatus for organizing files, web pages, or web site members organized in a traditional first hierarchical file structure that is on a recordable medium of a data processing system. A user-defined metalabel is assigned to each of the electronic files, web pages, or web site members. The electronic files, web pages, or web site members are organized as a function of the metalabels into a second hierarchical file structure existing simultaneously with the first hierarchical file structure on the recordable medium of the data processing system. The files, web pages, or web site members can be organized or grouped by the metalabels for efficient searching or following conversations of group members on social networking sites.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2012Date of Patent: January 7, 2014Assignee: Illinois Institute of TechnologyInventors: Ophir Frieder, Sanjiv Kapoor

Patent number: 6877035Abstract: A method, apparatus, computer program product, and decision support system and for allocating hosting-service resources to clients in at least one shared server. The method comprises discovering utilization patterns of the clients; monitoring the clients to discover the utilization patterns; providing bounds specifying minimum and maximum hosting-service resources for each of the clients; modeling dimensions for client user measures and the utilization patterns; and allocating the resources to the clients dependent on the utilization patterns. The step of allocating is also dependent upon the bounds.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2001Date of Patent: April 5, 2005Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Johara Shireen Shahabuddin, Kannan Balaji, Sanjiv Kapoor, Sandeep Juneja, Vishu Gupta, Abhay Chrungoo

Publication number: 20050063313Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for optimal clustering of master-slave ad-hoc wireless network for minimizing the number of masters and thereby the number of communication hops. It comprises assigning master or slave status to each node and connecting slave nodes to master nodes to form subgroups based on defined optimization parameters and the constraints and characteristics of the network. After that said subgroups are interconnected to form a single cluster either by connecting a slave node at the boundary of one subgroup to the master of an adjacent subgroup where possible, or by connecting two adjacent master nodes together or by converting a slave node at the boundary to a master and linking it to the slave nodes or master nodes in the adjacent subgroups.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2001Publication date: March 24, 2005Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Amit Nanavati, Kannan Balaji, Sanjiv Kapoor
