Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention relate to optimizing storage of schema-less data. A schema-less dataset including a plurality of resources is received. Each resource is associated with at least a plurality of properties. At least one set of co-occurring properties from the plurality of properties is identified. A graph including a plurality of nodes is generated. Each of the nodes represents a unique property in the set of co-occurring properties. The graph further includes an edge connecting each node representing a pair of co-occurring properties. A graph coloring operation is performed on the graph. The graph coloring operation includes assigning each of nodes to a color, where nodes connected by an edge are assigned different colors. A schema is generated that assigns a column identifier from a table to each unique property represented by one of the nodes in the graph based on the color assigned to the node.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a system and method for searching and reporting on semistructured data that can include dynamic metadata. One embodiment can comprise providing a user interface to a user based on an object type definition for an object type that allows the user to specify search criteria associated with a set of metadata, mapping the user search criteria to a query that comprises at least one structured query constraint and at least one unstructured query constraint, processing the query to search a set of data objects containing semistructured data associated with the object type according to the query and returning a set of results to the user. The search results can be returned to a user based on user-specified reporting parameters. Additionally, the reporting definition can be saved as an object for future execution.

A request is generated to scan a multitenant database for skew indicated by relationship depth exceeding an expected limit. A database crawler calculates skew for tenant identifier for a particular table in the database. Any skew that is detected is identified for later resolution.

Abstract: A system, a method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium are provided. Co-occurrences of words or terms in a group of text documents are determined. A score for each of the co-occurrences of words or terms is calculated. A graphic view is presented. The graphic view has nodes that include at least one word or term and edges that join at least two nodes and depict a relationship among the at least two nodes. A layout of the graphic view includes a minimum number of crossings of the edges.

Abstract: A technique for implementing fast path grace period detection for deferring the destruction of a shared data element until pre-existing references to the data element are removed. A check is made, without using locks to exclude other updaters, for the presence of readers that are accessing the shared data elements. Grace period detection is terminated to initiate deferred destruction of the data element if there are no readers accessing the shared data element. If there are readers accessing the shared data element, a lock is implemented and another check is made for the presence of the readers.

Abstract: A system and for displaying relationships between concepts to provide classification suggestions via inclusion is provided. A set of reference concepts each associated with a classification code is designated. One or more of the reference concepts are combined with a set of uncoded concepts. Clusters of the uncoded concepts and the one or more reference concepts are generated. Relationships between the uncoded concepts and the one or more reference concepts in at least one cluster are visually depicted as suggestions for classifying the uncoded concepts in that cluster.

Abstract: A method for improving the performance of a computer system when it is detected that a process wishes to gain access to and update an object while it is locked for commitment to stable storage. The process wishing to gain access to the object is provided a copy of the existing object, with this copy now being considered as the new primary copy of the object. Updates can be made to this new copy without any impact to the commitment to the stable storage and without a delay to the process making the new updates. Any future searches for the object will return references to this new copy, while the original copy is only maintained for the period required to complete it's commitment to stable storage.

Abstract: A system comprises a processor-implemented collection module configured to request rating information from a first user relating to a transaction involving the first user and second user in an online transaction processing environment. The requested rating information relates to performance of the second user with respect to the transaction in a plurality of performance categories. A score generator is configured to generate a performance score relating to the second user using the rating information. A communication module is configured to communicate the performance score.

Abstract: A similarity detector detects similar or near duplicate occurrences of a document. The similarity detector determines similarity of documents by characterizing the documents as clusters each made up of a set of term entries, such as pairs of terms. A pair of terms, for example, indicates that the first term of the pair occurs before the second term of the pair in the underlying document. Another document that has a threshold level of term entries in common with a cluster is considered similar to the document characterized by the cluster.

Abstract: A request handler may determine a query of a data stream management system (DSMS), wherein the query includes a plurality of operators being configured to execute the query collaboratively within the DSMS, and wherein stored stream-related data includes operator-associated windows of state data from the stream data, the request handler being further configured to determine a new query having new windows corresponding to the windows of the original query. A windows sorter may sort the new windows from longest duration to shortest duration to obtain a sorted new windows list. A migration estimator may calculate individual migration times for migrating state data from each window to its corresponding new window, beginning with the longest new window of the sorted new windows list. A migration aggregator may aggregate the individual migration times to obtain a total migration time for the new query.
