  • Patent number: 12224896
    Abstract: Method and system are provided for scoring events as likely cause events in a resource network. The method processes incoming events relating to resources in a resource network to correlate related events as a related group and maps the events of the related group onto nodes of a sub-topology representing resources of the resource network and having edges representing relationships between the resources. The method scores each event by discovering one or more paths between the node event and other node events of the related group, with the scoring based on a combination of an event classification weight and a discovered path score of aggregated relationship scores of edges of a discovered path.

  • Patent number: 11294748
    Abstract: A method and system are provided for identification of constituent events in an event storm in operations management. The method includes: detecting an event storm by detecting an anomaly from a dynamic baseline range of expected event rates in a sample time period; and, when an event storm is detected, for each of a group of events grouped by an event category and occurring in a sample time period of an event storm, identifying the group of events as constituting part of the event storm if the rate of the event occurrences of the group in the sample time period is outside a threshold deviation from an average for that group.

  • Publication number: 20200356343
    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to a tool, system, and method for searching input data. The system may include a pattern input module, configured to receive regular expression patterns of symbols. An interpreter module may be configured to access individual ones of the symbols of the input data and upon accessing each symbol and compare a thread against the symbol. For each pattern, the thread corresponding to the pattern is compared against the symbol prior to the at least one thread being compared against a subsequent symbol of the input data. An output module may be configured to output an indication of ones of the patterns determined to be contained within the input data based on the comparison of the corresponding at least one thread to the symbols of the input data.

  • Publication number: 20200319797
    Abstract: An example system and method includes an electronic memory configured to store electronic data. The system further includes a controller coupled to an electronic storage device including electronic data storage locations arranged in a consecutive sequence on a storage medium and configured to store electronic data corresponding to electronic files in the electronic storage locations and access the electronic storage locations serially according to the consecutive sequence. The controller may be configured to cause the electronic storage device to serially access and transmit to the electronic memory, according to the consecutive sequence, at least some electronic data, cause the electronic memory to store the electronic data as received so that the electronic data of the file forms a complete file, and cause a processor to access the files from the electronic memory upon all electronic data associated with ones of the files having been stored in the electronic memory.

  • Patent number: 10701296
    Abstract: A camera system and methods of enhancing images using direct measurement of angular displacement are disclosed. The camera system includes an optical element, a focal plane array (FPA), a motion sensor and a processor. The FPA has pixels sensing image pixel data from the optical element. The pixels have an angular resolution dependent upon a configuration of the optical element and a dimension of the pixels. The pixels detect electromagnetic waves having a wavelength within a range from 800 nanometers to 20 micrometers. The motion sensor senses angular displacement in 3D. The processor receives the image pixel data generated at distinct first instants of time during an image capture period from the FPA and motion reading(s) during the image capture period, converts the motion readings into angular displacement of the FPA, and selects an image processing algorithm to generate at least one image enhancement for the image pixel data.
