Abstract: A method of searching a database of medical research for documentation in support of a specific treatment for a patient, the method including: identifying a medical condition; identifying attributes of the patient; searching the database for treatment regimens for the medical condition; scoring identified treatment regimens based on similarity of the attributes of the patient to cohorts treated with the treatment regimens and outcomes; and providing a recommendation for a treatment regimen for the patient based on the attributes of the patient.

Abstract: Methods to provide selective supporting evidence processing by applying a first machine learning (ML) model to a first candidate answer to generate a first confidence score that does not consider supporting evidence for the first candidate answer, determining, from a second ML model, an expected contribution of processing supporting evidence for the first candidate answer, and upon determining that the expected contribution does not exceed a specified threshold, skipping supporting evidence processing for the first candidate answer.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products to perform an operation comprising receiving a case, generating a set of candidate answers for the case, excluding a first candidate answer from the set of candidate answers upon determining that a first attribute in the case precludes returning the first candidate answer as a valid response to the case, and processing supporting evidence for the remaining candidate answers in the set of candidate answers.

Abstract: A method, processor, and computer system for handling interrupts within a hierarchical register structure. The method includes receiving at a root-level register an indication of an interrupt occurring at a lower level register in the register structure, using a system interrupt handler to invoke an error handler assigned to a set of registers of the structure that includes the lower level register, and using the invoked error handler to handle the interrupt and return to the system interrupt handler.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products to perform an operation comprising receiving a case from a user, determining a level of sophistication of the user, determining a level of sophistication associated with each of a plurality of items of supporting evidence in a corpus of information, selecting a subset of the plurality of items of supporting evidence based on the determined levels of sophistication, and returning the selected subset to the user as part of a response to the case.

Abstract: The different switch modules making up a distributed virtual switch may route configuration commands for hardware resources to different modules within the distributed switch using a distribution and routing layer. At least one of the switch modules maintains a routing table that defines which switch modules are responsible for which hardware resources. The switch module uses the routing tables to forward the commands on the distribution and routing layer to the responsible switch module which then ensures that the relevant hardware resources are configured.

Abstract: A distributed switch may include a plurality of special-purpose processors that control the different functions of the switch. To enable some special services, however, the distributed switch may need one of these processors to perform the role of a master. When a processor is powered on, the processor may publish a corresponding unique ID. Before electing the master, the special-purpose processors may use a discovery process to identify the network topology of the switch and evaluate the published IDs to determine which processor should be the master. If all the processors nominate the same master processor, then that processor is elected as the master and may finish configuring the distributed switch to enable the special services.

Abstract: Error handling is simplified for a self-virtualizing IO resource that utilizes a physical function adjunct partition for a physical function in the self-virtualizing IO resource to coordinate error recovery for the self-virtualizing IO resource, by restarting each virtual function adjunct partition associated with that physical function to avoid the need to coordinate error recovery within the logical partitions to which such virtual function adjunct partitions are assigned.
