Patent number: 12013875Abstract: A context object is created when a write operation is initiated. The client application or user performs a write operation to a table and receives a context object which has information on all the tablets that are impacted by writes by the client application. The context object may contain a list describing what key ranges the client application has updated. As such, only that small portion of what has been touched needs to be looked for and this typically only includes a small subset of tablets compared to all the tablets associated with that table. This leads to a small verification cost when checking only impacted tablets in the cluster. The only portion of the table in the database that needs to be verified is the one or more portions that were updated and nothing else.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2021Date of Patent: June 18, 2024Assignee: Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LPInventors: Anurag Choudhary, Narendra Agrawal, Chris Westin, Aditya Kishore

Patent number: 11983225Abstract: A system that applies real-time electronic matching of a plurality of users in a live event, to enable the formation of anonymous connections amongst groups of users who can then interact through social activities. An event features a plurality of rounds, and in each round, users are matched into groups based on user selected interests. The matching system employs a user-enabled confidential selection of interests, through the use of, but not limited to, a personal device, such as a mobile phone or computer. The present invention is not limited in application to social networking environments, such as in a singles' event. It can also be applied in other environments where anonymous interactions are of importance, such as in the matching of potential buyers or sellers of products and services; or in the matching of recruiters and employment candidates.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2019Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Inventors: Jason T Connery, Jennifer Audrey Hardie-Connery

Patent number: 11977559Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided that enable immediate access to data associated with a source blob. The foregoing is achieved by creating a copy-on-read blob based on the source blob and a link blob based on the copy-on-read blob for each virtual machine to be deployed. When creating the copy-on-read blob, the source blob is not copied. Instead, data from the source blob is copied to the copy-on-read blob upon request by a virtual machine. Subsequent requests for that data are retrieved from the copy-on-read blob. Each link blob stores write data provided by its corresponding virtual machine. When a virtual machine requests data, its corresponding link blob is checked for the data. If the data is not stored therein, the copy-on-read blob is checked for the data. If the copy-on-read blob does not store the data, the data is retrieved from the source blob.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2021Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Krishnan Varadarajan, Shane Mainali, Maneesh Sah, Manan Shah, Andrew Edwards, Ivan Brugiolo, Ju Wang, Ovais Khan, Sivakumar Kalva, Venkates P.

Patent number: 11960440Abstract: Transient product master data may be used to represent temporarily used objects and resources. Instead of generating complete master data upfront, a placeholder is used in a tracking document for the temporary use. A tracking document for the temporary use includes a placeholder reference. When the product to be used temporarily is selected and ready to be physically moved, attributes and other information of the product may be sent to a management system via an interface. This information may be used to automatically generate transient material master data that is accessible using a reference. This reference may be used to update the placeholder reference in the tracking document and it may be used in further tracking documents.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Karthik H, Krishna Mayya

Patent number: 11921669Abstract: Computer systems and processes configured to collect empirical data from a plurality of observations of a person, and to analyze the data to identify a particular state of the person characterized by at least a particular property selected from the group consisting of types of behaviors, types of actions, types of activities, and/or types of emotions. The computer system facilitates transmission of a digital message, the content of which may be determined in response to the instance of the one particular state identified. The content of some digital messages may include experiments performed by the computer system on the person, to test the validity of the state-identification-process. The state-identification-process can then be updated with the observed responses of the person to the experiments, and with the results of the experiments. These experiments and the updating of the state-identification-process might be performed by the computer system to autonomously refine the state-identification-process.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2023Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Airedites, LLCInventor: Andrew L.
