Abstract: Improved techniques are provided for storing metadata associated with a plurality of sub-files associated with a single shared file in a parallel file system. The shared file is generated by a plurality of applications executing on a plurality of compute nodes. A compute node implements a Parallel Log Structured File System (PLFS) library to store at least one portion of the shared file generated by an application executing on the compute node and metadata for the at least one portion of the shared file on one or more object storage servers. The compute node is also configured to implement a partitioned data store for storing a partition of the metadata for the shared file, wherein the partitioned data store communicates with partitioned data stores on other compute nodes using a message passing interface. The partitioned data store can be implemented, for example, using Multidimensional Data Hashing Indexing Middleware (MDHIM).

A search apparatus includes a first determination unit that, for each of a plurality of input words input by a user in one input area in which at least keywords can be input, determines based on an input words whether or not the input word is a first attribute word representing a content of an attribute of a predetermined first division of a plurality of divisions of attributes had by a search object, and a search unit that searches for a search object by using a content, as a search condition of attribute of the first division, represented by the input word which is determined to be the first attribute word by the first determination unit.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for adjusting search results based on device specific utilities. In one aspect, a method includes determining whether a set of search results are ineligible for an adjustment operation based on an absence of a first proper subset of the resources that are determined to have a positive utility for a first device type from which a query was received. The determination is independent of the presence of a second proper subset of the resources that are determined to have a negative utility for the first device type. For each query for which the search results are determined to be adjusted, the search results are adjusted so that the search results referencing resources in the first proper subset are boosted relative to the search results referencing resources in the second proper subset.

Abstract: A method dynamically combines data from multiple data sources. A visual specification for a data visualization requires data from a primary data source and one or more secondary data sources. The primary data source is independent of the secondary data sources. The visual specification includes a first set of dimension fields that specify a hierarchical level for the data visualization. A second set of dimension fields specify a hierarchical level for joining data sets from the data sources. The hierarchical level for joining data sets is more granular than the hierarchical level for the data visualization. For each data source, a query is generated, and a data set is retrieved from the data source using the query. A single combined data set is formed that includes the dimension fields in the first set. The combined data set is rolled-up and a data visualization is displayed using the rolled-up data.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the present invention, a content server enhances content mediated engagements, by first enabling a user to specify a content collection containing a set of contents according to a specific/desired sequence, and then storing a data indicating the collection. The set of contents are selected from contents (or portions thereof) maintained in a repository. In response to receiving during a content mediated engagement, a request of the stored content collection, the content server then provides the set of contents according to the specific sequence. The content server also facilitates the same content (maintained in repository) to be included and accordingly provided as part of different content collections.

Abstract: A method and system for social media ecosystem searching. A desired person can be searched for from public search engines and social media sites directly by name and/or by unique search keywords and search categories created and publically published by the desired person, a social media index of the desired person or a social commerce connection associated with the desired person. The search results are publically viewable. However, communication with the desired person located within the social media ecosystem is via a private system in which a searcher must provide login information to privately communicate with the desired person. The private system helps ensure that social media index values and social commerce connections are properly established, recorded and updated for the desired person and provides a layer of security and privacy. The social media searching ecosystem is provided on a cloud communications network for mobile and non-mobile devices.
