  • Patent number: 9213589
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for intelligent monitoring services are provided. A method includes sampling data over a defined time period and calculating a normative value for the defined time period based on the sampled data. The method also includes monitoring incoming data, comparing a monitored value for the incoming data to the normative value, and generating a responsive action when the monitored value deviates from the normative value.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 9, 2014
    Date of Patent: December 15, 2015
    Assignee: AT&T INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY I, L.P.
    Inventors: William N. Roney, Christopher P. Britton

  • Patent number: 8433773
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for intelligent monitoring services are provided. A method includes sampling data for a subject over a defined time period and calculating a normative value for the defined time period based on the sampled data. The method also includes monitoring incoming data for the subject, comparing a monitored value for the incoming data to the normative value, and generating a responsive action when the monitored value deviates from the normative value.

  • Patent number: 8386402
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for identifying cyclical behaviors are provided. A method includes defining a time-based set of splines in an equation for a dataset, identifying a periodicity of a cycle derived from implementing the time-based set of splines on the dataset, and taking a responsive action as a result of identifying the periodicity of the cycle.
