Abstract: A method and system for managing dynamic configuration changes in software applications is disclosed. The method includes converting an application object data from a first data format to a second data format readable by a framework. The method further includes creating a first table that includes mapping between an entity key, a plurality of queries, and a blueprint each associated with the application object. The blueprint is in the second data format. The method includes creating a second table that includes mapping between the entity key, at least one attribute associated with the application object, and at least one column in a database. The method further includes creating a mapped operation by mapping the application object data to a query, the blueprint, and a column from the at least column, based on the first table and the second table. The method includes executing the mapped operation on the database.

Abstract: A system and method to identify patterns in sets of signals produced during operation of a complex system and combines the identified patterns with records of past conditions to generate operational feedback to one or more machines of the complex system while it operates.

Abstract: In aspects of network association based on network performance capabilities, a device includes a first subscriber identity module (SIM) to enable a first subscription for data communication between the device and data communication networks, and includes a second SIM to enable a second subscription for additional data communication between the device and the data communication networks. The device implements a network manager to determine network data parameters that indicate performance capabilities of the data communication networks. The network manager can associate a first application of the device with a first network of the data communication networks that has a greater performance capability for a data streaming download based on the network data parameters. The network manager can also associate a second application of the device with a second network of the data communication networks for an interactive session of intermittent data communications based on the network data parameters.

Abstract: The disclosed technology can receive a voice query or text query in a natural language and translate it from natural language to a native database management language to respond to the query. For example, a human can ask his or her computer to “show large emails from December 2016”, and a data agent on computer can receive the voice request, convert audio associated with the voice to words in natural language, convert natural language into a SQL query, and convert the SQL query into a database management query. The data agent is trained with a corpus of technical documents and rules to determine the intent or keywords for answering the query. In some implementations, the disclosed technology can also include a chatbot and/or administrative assistant to enable a human to interface with a database management software using voice or text. In some implementations, the disclosed technology allows the user to automatically connect to a help desk technician to assist in completing the query.

Abstract: A mobile device including: a position locator; a user data engine; and a reputation engine client configured to: receive a location from the position locator; operate the user data engine to provide a user profile, intent, and context data for a user, the context data including dynamic factors about the user, and the profile including relative factors about the user that are relatively static with respect to the context data from the user data engine; and determine a reputation for the location, wherein the reputation is based at least in part on a combination of the user profile, intent, and context.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing a personalized offers integration platform are provided. Personalized offers may be based on transaction details, geographic locations, and/or consumer preferences. In one embodiment, a wallet system, user equipment, electronic devices, and a payment and offers integration platform (POIP) are provided. The wallet system can receive of transaction details, geographic locations, and/or consumer preferences associated with a point of sale transaction. The received information may be translated into metadata, and an offer request is generated that includes the metadata. The POIP is configured to receive the offer request, determine a set of criteria from the metadata, query a plurality of offer or reward engines using the set of criteria for retrieving offers that correlate to the offer request, receive a plurality of offers from the plurality of offer or reward engines, and integrate the plurality of offers for formulating an offer response.

Abstract: In an example, one or more computing devices operate to provide a context-aware reputation of a place, such as in relation to a human user. Context may include the user's identity and purpose, as well as environmental factors such as time of day, weather, and political drivers. The device may communicate with a server to receive globalized safety intelligence. When the user enters a zone, the device may determine a context-sensitive reputation, such as “Green,” “Yellow,” or “Red.” Depending on the reputation, the device may then take an appropriate action, such as warning the user or providing additional information.

Abstract: An energy absorbing element comprises: stiff members, wherein adjacent stiff members are connected by opposing hinges; and a central member connecting a first pair of the opposing hinges along a longitudinal direction; wherein the stiff members have a greater tensile strength than the central member; and wherein the central member is adapted to elastically extend along the longitudinal direction when an impact normal to the central member is applied to the energy absorbing element.

Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for delivering a video to a destination device using multiple sources and multiple protocols. The video can be on demand or a live video. A video is divided into several chunks distributed across devices and servers in the network. A node is selected for delivering a video chunk based on criteria including the cost of delivery of the chunk from the node to the destination node. This also improves the throughput of the entire system. Different nodes can use different communication protocols for delivering chunks of videos. Portions of videos are forward-cached to a node before a request for the video is made by the node. Activities associated with a device are gathered to determine a profile for the device. The profile of the device is used to select videos to be forward-cached to the peer device.
