  • Publication number: 20230049779
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to cognitive automation-based engine processing to propagate data across multiple systems via a private network to overcome technical system, resource consumption, and architecture limitations. Data to be propagated can be manually input or extracted from a digital file. The data can be parsed by analyzing for correct syntax, normalized into first through sixth normal forms, segmented into packets for efficient data transmission, validated to ensure that the data satisfies defined formats and input criteria, and distributed into a plurality of data stores coupled to the private network, thereby propagating data without repetitive manual entry. The data may also be enriched by, for example, correcting for any errors or linking with other potentially related data. Based on data enrichment, recommendations of additional target(s) for propagation of data can be identified. Reports may also be generated. The cognitive automation may be performed in real-time to expedite processing.

  • Publication number: 20220164358
    Abstract: Email metadata, and in some embodiments other secondary data, is analyzed to identify users of interest defined as having knowledge or expertise in a subject matter. Specifically, a corpus of email metadata is analyzed to determine, at least, which subject matters are associated with users, which users received or transmitted subject matter-specific emails, the distribution groups to which users, and any other relevant email metadata. In additional embodiments, secondary data other than email metadata is also analyzed and used to identify the users of interest. The analyzed email metadate, and in some embodiments the secondary data, is used to render reputation indicator(s) for each user that indicate a level of knowledge/expertise that the user possesses on subject matter(s). A requester provides input criteria including the subject matter, and, in response, is presented a ranked user listing that is ranked based on the level of reputation indictor.
