Abstract: A distributed system for large volume deep web data extraction that is extremely scalable, allows multiple heterogeneous concurrent searches, has power web scrape result processing capabilities and uses a well defined, highly customizable, simplified, search agent configuration interface requiring minimal specialized programming knowledge. A scrape campaign control module receives scrape control and web spider configuration parameters through either a command line interface of an HTTP based application programming interface. The control module uses those parameters to have an arbitrary plurality of web spiders created and deployed by a plurality of servers. Scrape campaign results are presented as prescribed.

Abstract: Reduced resolution location determination for improved anonymity of a user location is disclosed. In some implementations, a first location of a computing device operating in a geographic area is determined. A population density of the geographic area is estimated. A grid overlay is generated, including a number of cells based on the estimated population density. Using the grid overlay, a second location is generated for the computing device that is less precise than the first location. The less precise second location can be used in a local search or other application to improve the anonymity of the user location.

Abstract: A data migrating system and method are provided in which a Burst Buffer Network Aggregator (BBNA) process is configured either on the File Servers or on the File System's dedicated I/O nodes to coalesce data fragments stored in participating Burst Buffer nodes under the direction of a primary BB node appointed by a data generating entity prior to transfer of the full data stripe into the File System. The “write” request in the form of a full data stripe is distributed into a plurality of data fragments among participating BB nodes along with corresponding metadata.

Abstract: A first query is detected. The first query is for a storage device, and pulls a result set from the storage device using a set of predicates. The first query satisfies a size criterion. A new set of predicates of the result set is identified. The new set of predicates does not include any predicates of the original set of predicates. A second query which is the same as the first query is detected. The new set of predicates is used to determine the result set.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to search techniques. In one example process, the device concurrently displays remote search results and local search results. In another example process, the device provides previews of search results that include actionable user interface objects. In another example process, the device concurrently displays options for initiating a search using various search engines.

Abstract: A target domain name is classified using hash strides including domain name components. The hash strides are fed into a set of bloom filters programmed to identify pre-determined domain name categories. A programmable mapping table is provided for selecting one of many probable classifications.

Abstract: A method includes flushing a write transaction based on byte-ranges within a file system block. It is determined if the write transaction is a first write transaction to the file system block and whether to flush the received write transaction to a recovery log. If it is determined to flush the write transaction to the recovery log and the received write transaction is the first write transaction: the data associated with the write transaction is appended in the recovery log and byte-ranges remaining in the file system block are recorded, and also recording an associated particular bit value or particular bit pattern that the remaining byte-ranges must be set to before the remaining byte-ranges are accessed or when a recovery sequence for recovering data in the recovery log executes due to failure. The write transaction is replicated. The entire file system block byte-range is marked as committed.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to small write performance enhancements for parallel file systems. One embodiment includes flushing a received write transaction from a first memory device to a second memory device on a node in a file system based on one or more byte-ranges within a file system block. It is determined to flush the received write transaction to a recovery log that is stored in a non-volatile storage layer of the file system. If it is determined to flush the received write transaction to the recovery log: appending data associated with the received write transaction in the recovery log of the file system, replicating the data associated with the received write transaction in another non-volatile storage layer of another node if required, and marking the one or more byte-ranges as committed.

Abstract: Provided is an apparatus and method for searching for address book information. To this end, the present invention, upon receiving a search request message for searching address book information from a client, checks a search preference, searches for the address book information based on the checked search preference, applies a priority to the found address book information to create a final search result, creates a response message including the created final search result, forwards the response message to the client, and updates the preset search preference based on the final search result, thereby providing a search result optimized for a user.
