  • Patent number: 10621871
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for communicating between a bicycle and a vehicle to prevent vehicle open door accidents is provided. The present invention may include collecting data from a bicycle device associated with the bicycle. The present invention may also include determining the vehicle is involved in at least one high-risk activity. The present invention may then include determining the bicycle is in a proximity of the vehicle involved in the at least one high-risk activity. The present invention may further include transmitting, by the bicycle device, a plurality of proximity alerts to the vehicle involved in the at least one high-risk activity.

  • Patent number: 10452126
    Abstract: A system and process for off-loading computational tasks of mobile devices participating in a network that selects a leader from a set of mobile devices interconnected in a network and allows the leader to receive a broadcast of data about the computational power and battery level of each device in the network. Proposed tasks for off-loading are then fairly distributed among the participating devices by maximizing the minimal well-being of the participating devices, such as by considering the battery level for the i-est mobile device after t seconds have passed, the original battery level for the i-est mobile device, and the battery level discharge for the i-est mobile device, processing n tasks in t seconds. The tasks are completed by the assigned mobile device and the results reported to the mobile device that proposed the task.

  • Patent number: 10229140
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for evaluating indexing systems. Comparative tests are performed on two or more indexing systems. Each test uses one or more of: benchmarks, metrics, estimates of input data, desired index configuration, and performance constraints. A recommendation is automatically provided for an indexing system and an optimal configuration of the indexing system is also provided, based on an evaluation metrics from the tests.

  • Publication number: 20170193459
    Abstract: A calendar scheduler that automatically schedules future task appointments by correlating task attributes to user personality traits. A morningness trait or an eveningness trait is selected for application to a user as a function of personality trait data of the user. A main task verb of an appointment request is mapped to a matching verb associated with one of a plurality of cognitive domain taxonomy levels, wherein the cognitive domain taxonomy levels have different complexity values and are each associated with different matching verbs. An open slot within an electronic calendar is selected for scheduling the appointment request as a function of the complexity value of the cognitive domain taxonomy level associated with a verb mapped to the main task verb, a correlation of workplace co-worker occupancy to a preference of the user, and to a time within a timeframe of the selected morningness or eveningness trait.
