  • Publication number: 20240224012
    Abstract: A networked facilitator system is described that, in cooperation with a block chain on a network, carried out managing smart contracts associated with incentivized attention of a recipient sponsored by an application provider. The application provider submits a smart contract for incorporation into a block of the block chain, where the smart contract defines a compensated action performed by the recipient. The facilitator is configured to receive an incentivized attention definition corresponding to the smart contract and maps the received incentivized attention definition to an address of the recipient. Thereafter, the facilitator operates to interact with the recipient and the block chain smart contract to validate completion of required acts and invoke a consensus function to cause issuance of compensation to the recipient pursuant to the completed smart contract on the block chain.

  • Publication number: 20240160542
    Abstract: Techniques for assigning scenario-based tests to test assets are described. In an example, a scenario-based test operable to test a key performance indicator (KPI) of a System Under Test (SUT), a component behavior exhibited by a first component of the SUT, and a scenario characteristic are received. Based on the component behavior and the scenario characteristic, a first plurality of behavior models associated with the component behavior are identified. Based on the scenario characteristic a characteristic value is extracted from the scenario-based test. Each behavior model of the first plurality of behavior models is executed using the characteristic value to generate a first plurality of predicted behavior outcomes. Based on the first plurality of predicted behavior outcomes, a first test asset type from a plurality of test asset types is selected and the scenario-based test is transmitted to a test asset of the first test asset type.
