  • Patent number: 9690553
    Abstract: Embodiments include method, systems and computer program products for identifying dependency relationships in a software product. Aspects include obtaining change history data for the software product and extracting a plurality of change elements from the change history data, each change element including an identifier of a code segment that was changed and a timestamp of the change. Aspects also include creating a dependency graph based on the plurality of change elements, wherein the dependency graph includes nodes that correspond to the code segments and edges that connect nodes that were both updated in a same logical grouping, calculating a weight for each of the edges based on probability that the nodes connected by the edge will be updated together, and outputting the dependency graph.

  • Publication number: 20170147619
    Abstract: An aspect of providing augmented reality model comparison and deviation detection includes receiving a three-dimensional (3D) model of an object that is associated with a domain, determining a set of characteristics of the object from the 3D model, and searching a domain-specific database for data matching the set of characteristics. The domain-specific database corresponds to the domain associated with the object. An aspect also includes determining an identification of the object from data in the domain-specific database that matches the set of characteristics. For each characteristic in the set of characteristics, and aspect further includes comparing each value of the characteristic to a corresponding value in the matching data of the domain-specific database, and calculating any variation between the corresponding value of the characteristic and the value of the matching data. Another aspect includes creating a searchable index of the matching data and corresponding variations.

  • Patent number: 9648544
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes determining that network connectivity does not exist for a mobile data network. The computer-implemented method further includes initiating, via a wireless peer to peer communication protocol, a scan request to identify one or more peer devices, wherein each of one or more peer devices have a readiness score. The computer-implemented method further includes generating a routing table. The routing table includes the one or more peer devices located within a threshold distance. The computer-implemented method further includes generating a forwarding table. The forwarding table includes the one or more peer devices of the routing table that have a readiness score that exceeds a given threshold. The computer-implemented method further includes transmitting a data packet to each of the one or more peer devices of the forwarding table. A corresponding computer program product and computer system are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20170124849
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system for object location managing. The method including generating a first list including one or more personal objects based on a personal schedule of a user, generating a second list including one or more personal objects physically located within a predefined range of a checkpoint, comparing the first list to the second list to determine which personal objects are on both lists and which personal objects are missing, if any, from the second list, and notifying the user with the results of the comparison between the first list and the second list by activating an alarm.

  • Publication number: 20170076713
    Abstract: An approach for augmenting a teleconference based on cognitive computing. A teleconference transcript is created based on speech-to-text conversion. A portion of the teleconference transcript is replaced based on a substitute word store and on cognitive computing text substitution. A second teleconference transcript and text-to-speech conversion creates augmented real-time audio. Participant audio and augmented audios are combined to create and output augmented audio to teleconference participants. Audio augmentation includes noise reduction, volume normalization, content change and natural language translation.
