  • Publication number: 20200301701
    Abstract: An apparatus, and a method, performed by one or more processors are disclosed. The method may comprise receiving a build request associated with performing an external data processing task on a first data set, the first data set being stored in memory associated with a data processing platform to be performed at a system external to the data processing platform. The method may also comprise generating a task identifier for the data processing task, and providing, in association with the task identifier, the first data set to an agent associated with the external system with an indication of the data processing task, the agent being arranged to cause performance of the task at the external system, to receive a second data set resulting from performance of the task, and to provide the second data set and associated metadata indicative of the transformation.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are provided for managing expiration of modules. An expiry dataset may be maintained. The expiry dataset may include a set of identifiers corresponding to a set of modules, a set of expiry values for the set of modules, and a set of termination tasks for the set of modules. A request to refresh a module may be received from a client. Responsive to the reception of the request, an expiry value and a termination task for the module within the expiry dataset may be updated. The expiry value may be independent of a timestamp associated with the request.

  • Patent number: 10606866
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for investigation of network activities. Network activity information may be accessed. The network activity information may describe for an individual (1) respective relationship with one or more persons; and (2) respective activity status information indicating whether a given person has engaged in a particular activity. A network activity graph may be generated based on the network activity information. The network activity graph may include two or more nodes representing the individual and the one or more persons. Connections between the nodes may represent the respective relationships between the individual and the one or more persons. Data corresponding to the network activity graph may be presented through an interface.

  • Publication number: 20200004395
    Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods are disclosed to interface with one or more storage devices storing a plurality of documents, wherein each of the plurality of documents is associated with one or more tags of one or more predefined hierarchies of tags, wherein the one or more hierarchies of tags include multiple dimensions. In accordance with some embodiments, a method is provided to identify one or more documents from the data storage devices. The method comprises acquiring, via an interface, a selection of one or more tags of the one or more predefined hierarchies of tags. The method further comprises identifying one or more documents from the data storage devices in response to the selection, the identified one or more documents having tags that have a relationship with the selected tags, and providing data corresponding to the identified documents for displaying in the interface.

  • Publication number: 20190079937
    Abstract: Computer implemented systems and methods are disclosed for automatically clustering and canonically identifying related data in various data structures. Data structures may include a plurality of records, wherein each record is associated with a respective entity. In accordance with some embodiments, the systems and methods further comprise identifying clusters of records associated with a respective entity by grouping the records into pairs, analyzing the respective pairs to determine a probability that both members of the pair relate to a common entity, and identifying a cluster of overlapping pairs to generate a collection of records relating to a common entity. Clusters may further be analyzed to determine canonical names or other properties for the respective entities by analyzing record fields and identifying similarities.

  • Patent number: 6806627
    Abstract: A probe stabilized arc discharge lamp including a base portion, a window spaced from the base portion, a side wall interconnecting the base portion with the window. The side wall, the base portion, and the window define a chamber. A first electrode is disposed vertically in the chamber and extends outwardly through the base portion. A second electrode is also disposed vertically in the chamber and is spaced from the first electrode. The second electrode extends outwardly through the base portion. The first and second electrodes define an arc gap. There is also at least one trigger probe extending to or proximate to the arc gap for triggering an arc in the arc gap. Also, a reflector is disposed about the arc gap for directing radiation generated by the arc out the window. A sparker may also be provided.
