  • Patent number: 11829230
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for generating and using a Global Error-Code Sequence (GECS), with the role of generating, at request, a unique error identification number (ID). The scope of the unique identification number can include worldwide, company-wide, or a certain application ecosystem, such as eCommerce applications, etc. The GECS forms a strong correlation between an error condition and a known solution. While other logging signatures such as line numbers, stack traces, and addresses can change with new releases or invocations, the GECS enables a tighter coupling between an error condition and a knowledgebase document, which enables faster resolution of computer application problems and reduced downtime.

  • Patent number: 11576078
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for selectively excluding data from compression prior to uplink to a telecommunication system. In an embodiment, the method analyzing a request by an application, executing within a device, to wirelessly uplink data to a telecommunication node. The method further includes establishing a set of logical channels assigned to the application. The method further includes transferring the data among one or more logical channels, of the set of logical channels, based on a status flag related to data compression corresponding to the data. The method further includes determining that the data is transferred via a compression-disabled logical channel, of the set of logical channels. The method further includes responding to determining that the data is transferred via the compression-disabled logical channel by bypassing a data compression function prior to preparing the data for uplink. The method further includes uplinking the data to the telecommunication node.

  • Patent number: 11030544
    Abstract: A mapping is constructed between a node of a cultural hierarchy and a node of an organizational hierarchy. The cultural hierarchy is a data structure representing an arrangement of characteristics of different social levels relative to one another in a culture. The organizational hierarchy is a data structure representing an arrangement of characteristics of different roles of people relative to one another in a group. A set of cultural attributes is constructed to represent a persona of a human user according to mapping. Using a cultural attribute, an adjustment rule is selected from a library. A machine output is modified according to the adjustment rule. The machine output is in response to a dialog between a data processing system and human user in a machine-human interaction. The adjusted output is transformed and presented as a response to the human user in the machine-human interaction.

  • Patent number: 10885590
    Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable automatically fulfilling an obligation under a smart contract. A block is added to a blockchain ledger in response to an event that triggers the obligation. The block includes data related to the event. Inferences related to the event are derived based on an analysis of event data and historical data incorporated in prior blocks in the blockchain ledger. Based on the inferences, a potential cause of the event is derived. Based on the potential cause, an interested stakeholder to the fulfilling of the obligation is identified. The interested stakeholder is added to a group that is allowed access to the blockchain ledger corresponding to the smart contract.
