  • Publication number: 20190349251
    Abstract: Various embodiments provision resources of a large-scale enterprise network for a first user. The large-scale enterprise network has a multiplicity of resources and users. The actions of users of the network are monitored to determine resource usage history and current resource usage of all resources for each user. A resource usage frequency is determined for all resources used by the first user. A set of related users is created by identifying users grouped with the first user in a common user group. At least one resource usage configuration for the first user is predicted based on the resource usage history, current resource usage, and resource usage frequency of the first user and resource usage history and current usage of each of the related users. A computing device of the first user is provisioned according to the predicted resource usage configuration.

  • Patent number: 10424185
    Abstract: A mobile electronic device such as a smartphone is used in conjunction with a deep learning system to detect and respond to personal danger. The deep learning system monitors current information (such as location, audio, biometrics, etc.) from the smartphone and generates a risk score by comparing the information to a routine profile for the user. If the risk score exceeds a predetermined threshold, an alert is sent to the smartphone which presents an alert screen to the user. The alert screen allows the user to cancel the alert (and notify the deep learning system) or confirm the alert (and immediately transmit an emergency message). Multiple emergency contacts can be designated, e.g., one for a low-level risk, another for an intermediate-level risk, and another for a high-level risk, and the emergency message can be sent to a selected contact depending upon the severity of the risk score.

  • Patent number: 10412195
    Abstract: Performing a risk-aware transformation of a service management stack during workload migration is provided. A set of workloads for migration from a source environment to a target environment is identified in response to receiving a request to migrate the set of workloads. The migration of the set of workloads is initiated from the source environment to the target environment. A service management stack configuration transformation from a service management stack configuration corresponding to the source environment to a set of service management stack configurations corresponding to the target environment is performed based on semantic matching between functions of the service management stack configuration corresponding to the source environment and functions of the set of service management stack configurations corresponding to the target environment, a state of the source environment, service management stack configuration transformation actions, and a goal state of the target environment.

  • Patent number: 10394323
    Abstract: A processor-implemented method, system, and/or computer program product alter a template used to display content on a user interface. One or more processors receive a transmission from the one or more hardware devices that describes a current cognitive state of a user. The processor(s) receive content to be presented to the user on a user interface, and identify template components that are appropriate for presenting the content to the user based on the current cognitive state of the user. The processor(s) alter an initial template used to present the content, such that altering the initial template creates an altered template, and where the altered template uses the template components that are determined to be appropriate for presenting the content to the user based on the current cognitive state of the user. The processor(s) then present the content on the user interface using the altered template.

  • Publication number: 20190252063
    Abstract: A method for providing recommendations to a care provider includes receiving, by a monitoring system, environmental information regarding an environment in which a care provider is providing care to a recipient. The environmental information includes interaction data regarding interactions between the care provider and the recipient and entity data regarding entities in the environment. The method includes applying analytic analysis to the environmental information to generate input to a machine learning model. The input includes first features indicative of aspects of the interactions and second features indicative of one or more relations between the entities. The method includes determining a recommendation for the care provider that is predicted to facilitate achieving a goal associated with the recipient by applying the machine learning model to the input. The method includes providing the recommendation by the monitoring system to the care provider.
