Accordingly, CAD files of a CAD system for machines can be accurately converted into CAD files of a CAD system for ships.

Abstract: Various embodiments of system and methods of creating a filter for a list of objects are described herein. The method includes receiving a selection of a set of objects from the list of objects composed of one or more fields having field values, and comparing the field value in each field of an object with the field values in each of the corresponding fields of the other objects in the set of objects. Based on the comparison, identifying that the field values are the same across the one or more fields of the set of objects. The method further includes generating a list of filter criteria based on the identified field values. The filter may be created using the list of filter criteria.

Abstract: Electronic source information is reconciled by normalizing at least some electronic source information, transport information and destination information by applying a plurality of rules to extract the information into at least one schema. At least some of the normalized information is identified to contain at least one discrepancy or missing data record, and reconciliation information is provided in a graphical user interface. Electronic information is received that reconciles the discrepancy or the missing record, and the reconciled and normalized electronic source, transport and destination information is processed to provide data analytics. A report is generated that represents the data analytics and that is output to at least one user. This can occur in one or more implementations of the present application.

Abstract: A system and a method for creating an OData custom query involve retrieving properties for a data object defined in a software application, and then displaying a graphical user interface by which the retrieved properties are selected together with additional options. A plurality of partial queries are created based on the selected properties and the additional options. The partial queries are combined to form a complete OData query for the software application.

Abstract: Query disambiguation can include identifying, a first set of word clusters in a first candidate answer generated in response to a first input query for a question-answering system. Each of the first set of word clusters can be classified according to a syntactic element of a first set of syntactic elements. Query disambiguation can include identifying, in the first input query, a second set of word clusters. Each of the second set of word clusters can be classified according to a syntactic element of a second set of syntactic elements. Query disambiguation can include determining that the first word cluster is classified according to a first syntactic element that is not present in the second set of syntactic elements and generating a second input query using the first input query and the first word cluster.

Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to query hint learning in a database management system. A hint in a first query is detected by the database management system. The first query has a first signature. A second query is received by the database management system. The second query has a second signature. A determination is made by the database management system that the second signature correlates with the first signature. A query plan is established by the database management system. The query plan is based on the second query and uses the hint in the first query. In response to receiving the second query, the database management system processes the query plan.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to a method of performing incremental block based backups for volume and sub-file level backups by providing a change block tracking driver component, maintaining a context of the change block tracking driver as a driver context using a single bitmap that represents the volume being tracked, and maintaining the bitmap as the only element to track changes across the volume backups and multiple application backups involving different sub-file level backups.

Abstract: A processing request is received. The processing request includes information about a first location where a set of data is stored and information about a second location where the set of data is to be transferred. The size of the set of data is determined. The size of the available portion of the second location is determined. If the size of the set of data is smaller than the size of the available portion of the second location is determined. Responsive to determining the size of the set of data is larger than the size of the available portion of the second location, the size of the available portion is requested to be increased. The size of the available portion of the second location is increased to a size larger than the determined size of the set of data.
