  • Publication number: 20170255663
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatus, and methods for propagating data changes in a distributed computing system from source components to target components. In accordance with various embodiments, one or more producer components of a data-conveyor system may detect changes to data records in one or more source components, and store backlog entries responsive to detecting the changes, wherein these backlog entries do not include contents of the data record. One or more consumer components of the data-conveyor system may retrieve updated data of changed data records based on the backlog entries and provide the updated data to one or more target component(s).

  • Patent number: 9753922
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for enhanced tracking of user interactions with online documents, such as, in accordance with various embodiments, interaction tracking on a sub-document level of granularity. In some embodiment, user interests or expertise are determined based at least in part on the tracked user interactions with document elements and topics associated with the elements.

  • Publication number: 20170004198
    Abstract: Described herein are computer-implemented systems and methods for automatically disambiguating author names for a plurality of publications so as to create clusters of author name mentions that are with high probability associated with a single author identity for each cluster. Also described are systems and methods for assigning the clusters to respective unique author identities, automatically and/or based on human input (e.g., as received from authors, co-authors, or administrative curators).

  • Publication number: 20160360012
    Abstract: Client requests for electronic files (e.g., requests for download from a website) can be leveraged by augmenting the electronic files with unique identifiers and/or enriching (e.g., dynamic) content, and tracking distribution or usage of the files based on network requests associated with the electronic files, such as attempts to upload a previously downloaded file or content requests originating from links included in the augmented electronic files.

  • Publication number: 20160342591
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to linking documents using citations. A server accesses a stored document in a data repository. The server determines a set of candidate citing documents that cite the stored document. The server obtains, for each candidate citing document from the set, first information representing an impact of the candidate citing document taken as a whole and second information representing a citation context within the candidate citing document. The server determines a subset of citing documents, from the set of candidate citing documents, based on the obtained first information and the obtained second information. The server provides a digital transmission of the stored document, including visible indicia of the subset of citing documents, for display at a client device.

  • Publication number: 20160239512
    Abstract: Various systems and methods for creating, storing, structuring, displaying, enhancing, and/or referencing publications and related content in an online user network are described. In some embodiments, external documents are converted into an internal format and stored in the form of entries for a plurality of document elements and one or more views each comprising an ordered list of document elements.

  • Publication number: 20160019302
    Abstract: A system for sharing academic articles and credential information for a plurality of academic users is described herein. Embodiments of the system, computer program product and computer-implemented method perform a process for gathering data related to the academic user and a process for determining a reputation ranking for the academic user by executing the steps of: creating a user profile for the academic user from attribute information gathered from a user profile prompt, enabling the user profile from the academic user to be viewed by academic and non-academic users to provide a rank selection for the user profile for the academic user according to at least one of research quality, credentials, research articles, and user activity, and determining a reputation ranking for the user profile from the rank selection of the other academic users.
