Abstract: Technologies for reducing event notifications in telematics systems includes a telematics server, a telematics device located in a vehicle, and a notification device. The telematics server receives telematics data from the telematics device and analyzes the telematics data based on an event model to determine whether an unexpected event has occurred. The event model includes a plurality of rules that define expected events related to the vehicle based on historical telematics data. The server generates a notification in response to a determination that the unexpected event has occurred and transmits the notification to the notification device, which may generate a notification to an end user. The event model may be generated and updated by the telematics server using an unsupervised and/or supervised machine learning algorithm based on the telematics data.

Abstract: A system and method for providing software updates to a plurality of mobile devices includes a central update server and update software resident on each mobile device. The update server includes a database of software program identifiers and identifiers for corresponding updates, a subset of which may not be compatible with each mobile device. The mobile device initiates the update process by preparing a request in accordance with configuration information and security/privacy settings, and communicating the request to the update server to retrieve corresponding update information. Due to security/privacy settings, the request may be insufficient for the update server to identify relevant software updates. The mobile device selects at least one of the software updates, and communicates with the update server to download the selected updates. The retrieved update information may also include a referral to another update server, and the mobile device will repeat the update process with the referral server.

Abstract: A system for reconciling data in a plurality of databases includes a user interface adapted to provide a graphical representation of at least a subset of the records from each of the plurality of databases and to allow for interactive manipulation of the database records through the graphical representation. The plurality of databases are stored on a portable device, or a personal computer. In some embodiments, at least two of the databases have different record structures. The graphical representation includes a visually distinctive graphical scheme for each of the plurality of databases, as well as a visually distinctive graphical scheme for each unique combination of the plurality of databases. Each record found in a single database is displayed using the single database's corresponding graphical scheme and each record found in more than one database is displayed using the graphical scheme corresponding to the combination of databases.
