Abstract: A simulator is configured to simulate the fulfillment of orders by nodes. Each node has an inventory of products and is capable of shipping the products to destinations in response to receipt of a corresponding order. The simulator divides the nodes into groups and assigns a different priority to each group based on input provided by a user to the simulator to generate an ordered sequence of priorities. The simulator maintains safety stock data corresponding to each node that indicates minimum quantities of the products required to be present at the corresponding node. The simulator selects a current priority of the sequence and next simulates a first group among the groups having the current priority fulfilling the orders for a given product among the products while a quantity of the given product at each of the nodes in the first group is below the minimum quantity in the corresponding safety stock data.

Abstract: Enhanced personalized advertisements may be provided through media such as IPTV, for example, by analyzing data such as subscribers' mobility data (calling and movement data), television (TV) watching history, online browsing data (e.g., Internet, web site browsing), and subscribers' historical purchasing transactions. With the analysis, subscribers' contexts, any information that reflects subscribers' interests and activities, and intents, tendency to buy certain products, items, services, and/or travel to some locations may be inferred.

Abstract: Detecting appliance in a building, in one aspect, may comprise receiving meter data associated with energy consumption, the meter data comprising at least energy consumption data associated with usage of the appliance, receiving customer data associated with the meter data, extracting features for training a model for detecting the appliance, based on at least the meter data and the customer data, and constructing the model based on the features.
