Abstract: A system may support distributed multiple tier multi-node serverless analytics task execution. At a data ingestion tier, data ingestion serverless tasks may receive detail data for analytic processing. data integration serverless tasks, executing at a data integration and consolidation tier and initiated by the data ingestion serverless tasks, may sort the detail data and identify patterns within the detail data to generate grouped pre-processed data. The data integration serverless tasks may initiate partitioning serverless tasks which may divide the grouped pre-processed data into data chunks. Multi-node analytic serverless tasks at an analytic tier, at least some of which being initiated by the partitioning serverless tasks, may analyze the data chunks and generate prescriptive outputs.

Abstract: A computer system constructs a decision-predictive recipient profile using sensatory data tied to an online profile of a recipient. After obtaining base sensatory data tied to the online profile of the recipient, the system may filter the base sensatory data by searching the base sensatory data for one or more machine-cognizable characteristics. The filtered sensatory data may be provided to an execution group, which may review displays of the sensatory data. Responsive to the displays of the sensatory data, the execution group may generate descriptors of the content of the filtered sensatory data and send the descriptors to the system. The system may process the descriptors to generate or augment the decision-predictive recipient profile.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the syntheses of superparamagnetic nanoparticles and the incorporation of the nanoparticles as the magnetic component to form a strongly magnetic nanocomposite. The superparamagnetic nanoparticles possess no hysteresis and are too small to support eddy currents. The invention uses a ligand exchange procedure to produce aminated nanoparticles that are then cross-linked using epoxy chemistry. The result is a magnetic nanoparticle component that is covalently linked and well separated. By using this ‘matrix-free’ approach, it is possible to substantially increase the magnetic nanoparticle fraction, while still maintaining good separation, leading to a superparamagnetic nanocomposite with strong magnetic properties and low magnetic losses.
