Abstract: Systems and methods for part prioritization in accordance with embodiments of the invention are illustrated. One embodiment includes a method for determining part priorities. The method includes steps for receiving part data for a set of one or more parts, the part data includes part failure data and part repair data, computing predicted lifecycle data based on the received part data, determining failure impact data based on the received part data, and generating an output based on the predicted lifecycle data and the failure impact data.

Abstract: A method of updating user profile data involves at least one processor receiving from a mobile device a user identifier and first current position data associated with a first current location of the mobile device. The processor(s) queries a search index with the identifier for a profile associated with the user identifier, determines from the first current position data that the mobile device is outside a default location defined in the profile, and incorporates into the search index profile data in association with first current location information derived from the first current position data. The processor(s) receive(s) from the mobile device the user identifier and second current position data associated with a second current location of the mobile device, determines from the second current position data that the device is within the default location, and removes from the search index the first current location information associated with the profile data.

Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for recommending applications to portable electronic devices are described herein. Initially a context change of an application identification parameter is detected. Based on the detected context change, a target application, from a plurality of applications, may be identified. A similarity value is then computed between the identified target application and another application. Finally, an application to be recommended to a portable electronic device is determined based on the computed similarity value and a rate value of another application.

Abstract: A system and method for detecting, reporting, and repairing software defects in a wireless device is disclosed. The system has a wireless subscriber unit for communicating to a support server. The wireless subscriber unit maintains an action file indicative of the historical operation of the wireless subscriber unit. When the wireless subscriber unit detects a local defect or error, the action list is transmitted to the support server. The action file is used by support staff to identify and fix the error, and to prepare a repaired software file. The repaired software file is received at the wireless subscriber unit, and the user is notified that the defect has been fixed. Also, the wireless subscriber unit may receive status updates from the central server to inform the user of repair progress.
