  • Publication number: 20180186183
    Abstract: Techniques for implementing mechanisms for chaining continuous queries are provided. In some examples, results of a first continuous query may be stored in a data object. For example, the first continuous query may be configured to process business event data and store the results in the data object. Additionally, a second continuous query may then be processed based at least in part on the results stored in the data object.

  • Patent number: 9953446
    Abstract: Various aspects of a method and system to present information via a user interface are disclosed herein. In accordance with an embodiment, the method includes detection of an orientation of an electronic device. The electronic device overlays one or more layers of information on the user interface displayed at the electronic device. Transparency of the overlaid one or more layers of information is dynamically adjusted based on the detected orientation of the electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20180046511
    Abstract: Techniques for tracking large numbers of moving objects in an event processing system are provided. An input event stream can be received, where the events in the input event stream represent the movement of a plurality of geometries or objects. The input event stream can then be partitioned among a number of processing nodes of the event processing system, thereby enabling parallel processing of one or more continuous queries for tracking the objects. The partitioning can be performed such that each processing node is configured to track objects in a predefined spatial region, and the spatial regions for at least two nodes overlap. This overlapping window enables a single node to find, e.g., all of the objects within a particular distance of a target object, even if the target object is in the process of moving from the region of that node to the overlapping region of another node.

  • Patent number: 9852186
    Abstract: Techniques for managing risks with continuous queries are provided. In some examples, a selection of a data object enabled to provide a real-time stream of business event data may be received. The selection may be received by a user associated with the business event data. Additionally, a continuous query language query may be generated. The query may be configured to monitor the real-time stream of business event data for a first metric. In some examples, the a risk indicator associated with a second metric that affects the first metric may be identified. Output events of a pre-existing continuous query language query may be listened to. Further, a real-time visualization of the first metric and/or the second metric may be provided.

  • Publication number: 20170223405
    Abstract: A UHD display presents HD video in the native resolution of HD, leaving some portions of the UHD display unused for presenting the HD video. Ancillary information received, for example, in real time with the HD video or in parallel with the HD video over the Internet is presented in the unused portions of the UHD display along with the HD video.

  • Patent number: 9703836
    Abstract: Techniques for managing tactical query to continuous query conversion are provided. In some examples, a tactical query configured to enable the pulling of business event data from a database to a query engine may be determined. For example, a query engine may be configured with the tactical query. The configuration may be based at least in part on an indication of the business event data to be displayed. Further, in some examples, a conversion of the tactical query to a continuous query may be enabled. The conversion or enablement of the conversion may be based at least in part on a request.

  • Publication number: 20170132277
    Abstract: A data analysis system is provided that enables users to perform complex data analyses based upon data that may be spread across multiple data sources. The data analysis system is configured to generate a combined query that is capable of extracting data from the multiple data sources. The user may provide analysis information describing the analysis the user desires to perform on the extracted data. In response, the data analysis system is further configured to automatically augment the combined query with program or code to implement the user-specified analysis. Execution of the augmented or modified combined query generates an analysis result set resulting from performing the user-specified analysis. The data analysis system provides a flexible and easy-to-use platform for a user, even a non-technical user, to perform complex data analyses using data stored in multiple different data sources.

  • Patent number: 9424471
    Abstract: The user of an Internet-enabled CE device such as a TV can select an object in a video presented on the display of the CE device by either touch sensitive screen or input device. The processor of the CE device can then determine the boundaries of the object, identify it using face/image recognition software, search for information/websites related to the object, and present those information/websites to the viewer on the display screen.

  • Patent number: 9342927
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for automatically combining computer-generated imagery with real-world imagery in a portable electronic device by retrieving, manipulating, and sharing relevant stored videos, preferably in real time. A video is captured with a hand-held device and stored. Metadata including the camera's physical location and orientation is appended to a data stream, along with user input. The server analyzes the data stream and further annotates the metadata, producing a searchable library of videos and metadata. Later, when a camera user generates a new data stream, the linked server analyzes it, identifies relevant material from the library, retrieves the material and tagged information, adjusts it for proper orientation, then renders and superimposes it onto the current camera view so the user views an augmented reality.

  • Patent number: 9329975
    Abstract: A method including receiving, at a computer system, debugging configuration information specifying a functional area of a data stream processing server to be debugged, is described. Furthermore, the method includes identifying, by the computer system, an object associated with the functional area that has been instantiated by the data stream processing server, determining, by the computer system, that tracing for the object is enabled to perform the debugging, and instantiating, by the computer system, a tracelet associated with the object. Further, the method includes stepping, by the computer system, through the tracelet associated with the object to debug the object, and displaying, by the computer system, a visual representation of debugging results associated with the object.
