The prediction logic further generates a second prediction indicating that the customer process will not access the first data set for a threshold period of time after the second time and stores the first data set in the long-term storage at the second time.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2017Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Omer Baluch, Julio Delgado Mangas, Kiran-Kumar Muniswamy Reddy, Ajay Gopalakrishnan, Antoun Joubran Kanawati, Si Yin, Mukul Vijay Karnik, Vishal Parakh, Timothy Andrew Rath, Bhupinder Singh Sidana, Jared Scott Lundell

Patent number: 11853801Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a plug-in for enhancing resource elastic scaling of a distributed data flow and a method for enhancing a plug-in for enhancing resource elastic scaling of a distributed data flow. The plug-in is connected to a scaling controller used for resource elastic scaling of a distributed data flow. The plug-in includes a decision maker, a decision model, and a scaling operation sample library. The scaling controller registers a data flow to the plug-in through a first interface. The scaling controller sends an optimal decision of resource scaling in each status to the plug-in through a second interface. The scaling operation sample library is configured to record the optimal decision of resource scaling in each status. The decision model is configured to predict a received data flow based on the optimal decision recorded in the scaling operation sample library, to generate a prediction decision.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2021Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: TSINGHUA UNIVERSITYInventors: Lijie Wen, Zan Zong

Patent number: 11831511Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method for enforcing service policies at different container clusters configured by several SDN controller clusters. A first SDN controller cluster defines a particular service policy to be enforced for machines in first, second, and third container clusters. First, second, and third sets of network elements for the first, second, and third container clusters are managed by the first, a second, and a third SDN controller cluster respectively. For data message flows exchanged between machines in the first and second container clusters, the first SDN controller cluster distributes the particular service policy to service nodes only in the first container cluster. For data message flows exchanged between machines in the second and third container clusters, the first SDN controller cluster distributes the particular service policy to service nodes in at least one of the second and third container clusters.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2023Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: VMWARE, INC.Inventors: Zhengsheng Zhou, Wenfeng Liu, Donghai Han

Patent number: 11816592Abstract: In the disclosure of the present innovation the system utilizes artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data analytics for practical and robust digital democracy applications to dynamically predict the most important states to survey in a process. In the present invention, beneficiaries are surveyed about their preferences over various options in these surveyed states. In the current invention, when a state that has not been surveyed occurs, Bayesian methods are used to dynamically predict what a user's ballot would have looked like if that state had been surveyed and Bayesian prediction is then tested, and if the result is found to be robust then a decision is reached using voting logic and economic theory. In the system of the current invention, if the results are not robust, then the process is rerun to determine the most important states to survey.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2020Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Oxyml LLCInventor: Michael William Kotarinos

Patent number: 11809910Abstract: A system includes a subsystem, a database, a memory, and a processor. The subsystem includes a computational resource associated with a resource usage and having a capacity corresponding to a maximum resource usage value. The database stores training data that includes historical resource usages and historical events. The memory stores a machine learning algorithm that is trained, based on the training data, to predict, based on the occurrence of an event, that a future value of the resource usage at a future time will be greater than the maximum value. The processor detects that the event has occurred. In response, the processor applies the machine learning algorithm to predict that the future value of the resource usage will be greater than the maximum value. Prior to the future time, the processor increases the capacity of the computational resource to accommodate the future value of the resource usage.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2020Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventor: Naga Vamsi Krishna Akkapeddi

Patent number: 11809435Abstract: Generation and/or utilization of particular data structure(s) in more efficiently storing, retrieving, and/or presenting personal entry(s) is described herein. Implementations can utilize the data structure(s) in more efficiently responding to a vague user request that specifies a particular type of personal entry, but lacks any additional features of the personal entry(s) sought. Utilization of the data structure(s) can enable responsive personal entry(s) to be efficiently identified (e.g., processor and/or memory efficiency and/or with reduced latency). For example, some implementations can enable selection of a subgroup of personal entries to provide responsive to the vague request, without necessitating any processing of personal entries, that are not included in the selected subgroup, be performed responsive to the request.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2020Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Peter Krogh, Shikha Kapoor, Shen-En Shih, Max Loh
