  • Publication number: 20160004765
    Abstract: Cluster analysis of data points in a data set can be optimized by identification of a preferred cluster analysis method. This identification can be based on indexing the data using a Hilbert curve and determining whether the data points are predominantly in spherical or non-spherical clusters. Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture are described.

  • Publication number: 20150324373
    Abstract: A query of spatial data is received by a database comprising a columnar data store storing data in a column-oriented structure. Thereafter, a minimal bounding rectangle associated with the query is identified using a grid order scanning technique. The spatial data set corresponding to the received query is then mapped to physical storage in the database using the identified minimal bounding rectangle so that the spatial data set can be retrieved. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Publication number: 20150324399
    Abstract: A query of spatial data is received by a database comprising a columnar data store storing data in a column-oriented structure. Thereafter, a minimal bounding rectangle associated with the query is identified using a tree-order scanning technique. A spatial data set that corresponds to the received query is then mapped to the physical storage in the database using the identified minimal bounding rectangle. Next, the spatial data set is then retrieved. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Publication number: 20150265876
    Abstract: Correlated and processed data is received that is derived from a plurality of geo-spatial sensors that respectively generate data characterizing a plurality of sources within a zone of interest. The data includes a series of time-stamped frames for each of the sensors. Subsequently, events of interest are identified, in real-time, based on relative positions of the sources within the zone of interest prior to the data being written to a data storage application. Data can then be provided (e.g., loaded, stored, displayed, transmitted, etc.), in real-time, that characterize the events of interest. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Publication number: 20150268929
    Abstract: Data is received that is derived from a plurality of geo-spatial sensors that respectively generate data characterizing a plurality of sources within a zone of interest. The data includes series time-stamped frames for each of the sensors and at least one of the sources has two or more associated sensors. The received data can be sorted and processed, for each sensor on a sensor-by-sensor basis, using a sliding window. The sorted and processed data can then be correlated and written into a data storage application. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Publication number: 20150149258
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, input data may be received from a data source in an enterprise database in accordance with an enterprise performance management planning model, stored by a processor at the enterprise database. An operation may then be performed on the input data to produce a result. The result may then be stored in a data target, wherein the data target points to a data holding entity in an instantiation of a plan data container at the enterprise database.

  • Patent number: 8473736
    Abstract: A method for making safety mechanisms available in wireless mesh networks which have a plurality of nodes that are interconnected by multi-hop communication in a wireless network meshed by mesh routing in the MAC layer, every node being active as a router to forward the data traffic of the other nodes. At least two differentiated levels of confidence are defined by a type of protection (ToP) the value of which represents a specific level of confidence for the nodes and data packets, the data packets being labeled with a ToP value in the mesh header, and at least one ToP value being allocated to the participating nodes, the nodes forwarding the data packet in the mesh network using the ToP values of the node and of the data packet if this ToP value combination is admissible in the node.
