Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure enable exchange of semantic knowledge of resource data and task data between heterogeneous resources in a constrained environment wherein cloud infrastructure and cloud based knowledge repository is not available.

Systems and methods of the present disclosure effectively address these dynamic logistics in a constrained environment involving heterogeneous resources. Furthermore, based on the required resource data for each task and the available resources discovered in real time, task allocation can be effectively handled.

Abstract: To reduce the latency introduced by network communications, the access rights to digital content of various users is locally cached, and such a local cache is referenced without incurring network communication latency. The local cache is predictive in that it can comprise users which a user editing the digital content is more likely to reference in the future, thereby triggering a determination as to whether such users have access rights to the digital content. The predictive aspects of the local cache are informed by a social graph delineating relationships between a user editing the digital content and other users. The social graph can be further refined based on metadata about the digital content, or based on the digital content itself. In addition to comprising users who have access rights to the digital content, the local cache can also comprise users that have been determined to not have access rights.

Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable tailoring messages to enhance sharing and resonance based on a community fingerprint and a key influencer. More specifically, a message to be directed to members of an online social community is received. Members of the social community who influence the social community and their likelihood to re-share messages are identified. A re-share fingerprint for the identified influencer is generated that maps the influencer's likelihood to re-share content. A communications fingerprint of the community is also created using an amalgamation of the communication patterns and styles of individual members of the community. The received message is optimized to most effectively target the message to the online social community and to solicit a desired response from the community based on the community communication fingerprint and the re-share fingerprint of the influencer. The optimized message can then be forwarded to the online social community.
