Patent number: 12381773Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for reducing or mitigation alert fatigue from real-time alerts in cyber-physical systems or other types of edge computing systems are provided. In one or more examples, the edge computing system monitor can look for one or more patterns within received data that can indicate malicious activity or other conditions that may warrant a real-time or near-real time response from the operator. In one or more examples, a detection of any of the specified patterns in the streaming data can trigger an alert to the operator of the edge computing system. In one or more examples, the alerts can be suppressed until the number of alerts associated with a particular pattern crosses a pre-determined threshold. Additionally or alternatively, alerts can be suppressed based on a duration that the alerts have been generated. The suppression of alerts can be configured to reduce operator alert fatigue.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2022Date of Patent: August 5, 2025Assignee: The MITRE CorporationInventors: Suresh K.

Patent number: 12346735Abstract: In some examples, a system includes a plurality of drivers for respective backend systems that are to perform workload tasks. A workload service receives, from a workload manager, job information relating to a workload, the job information submitted by a requester and the job information uninterpreted by the workload manager. In response to receiving the job information, the workload service presents state information representing states of the workload. As the state information is updated during performance of tasks of the workload by at least one driver of the plurality of drivers, the workload service provides the updated state information to the plurality of drivers.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2022Date of Patent: July 1, 2025Assignee: Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LPInventors: Benjamin Robert Landsteiner, Jon Gregory Hendrickson
