Abstract: A system and method for analyzing and validating oil and gas well production data is disclosed. The system includes a network, a server connected to the network, and a set of wells connected to the network. In a preferred embodiment, the server is programmed to store and execute the method. The method includes the steps of collecting a set of data from the set of wells, performing an first RPI® evaluation on the set of data, creating a matched data set from the set of data, segregating the matched data set into a set of comparison groups, normalizing each comparison group of the set of comparison groups, calculating a set of performance metrics between a subset of the set of comparison groups, and calculating a probability for each performance metric of the set of performance metrics.

Abstract: Methods and systems for handling lock state information between a first storage system node and a second storage system node coupled via a network link are provided. The second storage system node stores lock state information at a storage device previously managed by the first storage system node and notifies the first storage system node of a storage device location where the lock state information is stored. The second storage system node then transfers ownership of the storage device to the first storage system node that copies the lock state information from the storage device location to a memory location managed by the first storage system node. The first storage system node uses the lock state information to reconstruct any locks for storage space presented to a client and then processes client requests for reading and writing information at the storage device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for using location aliases. In some implementations, a query is received, and a user that submitted the query is identified. It can be determined that one or more terms of the query represent an alias for a user-specific geographical location that has not been designated for the identified user. In response, a prompt can be provided to the user to specify a geographical location corresponding to the one or more query terms, data indicating a geographical location is received, and data is stored that indicates that, for the identified user, the one or more terms are an alias for the geographical location. One or more search results responsive to the query are provided, where the alias corresponds to the geographical location input in response to the prompt.

Abstract: In a remote index operation, a first system in a datasharing group performs an operation on a data object in a database, determines a second system in the datasharing group has exclusive access to an index page to be updated according to the operation, and sends to the second system a remote request to change the index page according to the operation. In response, the second system changes the index page with an index entry referencing the data object and marks a key in the index entry as a provisional key. When a third system in the datasharing group reads the index entry, it determines that the key in the index entry is the provisional key. In response, the third system determines whether the data object exists in the database and a committed state of the transaction, and accordingly determines a current state of the data object.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method, system, and computer-readable storage medium with instructions for recommending locations to a user. Preferred criteria may be selected by the user, for example, or a third party, and provide objective or subjective information that the user is seeking in a location. Embodiments may include compiling objective information with the location and comparing the objective information to preferred criteria. A user's profile may be compared to another person's profile, where the other person's profile is associated to the location. A location may be recommended to the user if the objective information correlates to the preferred criteria and if the other person's profile correlates to the user's profile. Subjective information associated with the location may be provided to the user along with the recommended location. Furthermore, a location may be recommended to the user if the subjective information correlates to the preferred criteria.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for presenting a user with a recommendation intent query in response to the user indicating that he or she recommends content. The recommendation intent query allows a user to designate (e.g., select, indicate, identify, choose, etc.) one or more components, subjects, characteristics, properties, etc., of the content to which the user's recommendation should be attributed. Therefore, the user's intent with regard to the recommendation can be determined, and a more detailed social annotation about the recommendation can be provided to other users in a social network. The recommendation intent query is in the form of a user interface containing a list of components, subjects, and characteristics of the recommended content, one or more of which may be designated by the user as being the intended target(s) of his or her recommendation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for data management in multi-tenant distributive environment. According to the embodiments of the present invention, a tenant-specific virtual metadata server may be created and registered with a task manager in a job processing system. The virtual metadata server provides a tenant-specific logical file system namespace. Any access to tenant data will be performed via the virtual metadata server. In other words, such virtual metadata server acts as an interface between a tenant terminal and an entity file system. In this way, it may effectively realize isolation of tenant data and enhance data security. Moreover, by using a virtual metadata server rather than physically isolating user data, the embodiments of the present invention may guarantee the efficiency of data sharing while improving the data security.

Abstract: According to aspects of the present disclosure, archived system management facility (SMF) data may be verified against a signature, even if the data to be verified against the signature is split among two or more history files. When archiving an SMF data dump, an indication is kept that includes locations of signatures found while a system management facility (SMF) data dump is being archived. For example, the indication may be kept in metadata of the history file (e.g., in the history file itself, a status block outside the history file, a collective index, etc.). Then when extracting the archived data, if the data corresponding to a signature is in a different history file, the data corresponding to the signature from all of the history files is concatenated for verification.

Abstract: In an example, a network is described with a plurality of data sources. Each data source may provide a feature, such as a data type that the data source collects or generates. A data aggregator may be connected to the network, and configured to collect, classify, and merge features as appropriate. The data aggregator includes a discriminator for classifying features, a merger, unmerger, converter, and evaluator. Features are provided to one or more expert systems configured to control one or more systems based on the features. Feedback to the data aggregator is used to evaluate the success of a merge. When a merge is found to be unhelpful, features may be unmerged.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to methods and systems for enhanced event processing. An enhanced event processing request is received, the enhanced processing request comprising an indication of input data from a database data source. The input data indicated in the enhanced event processing request is accessed using a constructed data stream. The constructed data stream provides access to a collection of snapshots over time of database data of the database data source. The data from constructed data stream source may be accessed as a function of a selected value and a selected time. The constructed data stream data includes the temporal element, which is unavailable with the database data, the temporal element facilitates performing enhanced event processing for the database data using the constructed data stream data. An output for the enhanced event processing request is generated based on the input data accessed using the constructed data stream data.
