  • Patent number: 10671601
    Abstract: Receiving a first model associated with a user, a generic model of a generic domain, and a specific domain having an associated domain-specific corpus. A first set of query terms based on elements of the first model, and a second set of query terms based on elements of the generic model, are determined. A third set of query terms is generated based on the first and second sets of query terms. The domain specific corpus is queried using the third set of query terms, and a domain specific model is generated based on results of the querying.

  • Publication number: 20160217200
    Abstract: A model of a domain is received, wherein the model has a plurality of elements. A corpus of select documents covering the plurality of elements of the model is also received. A plurality of select topics is generated from the corpus of select documents. Topics of an additional document are compared to the plurality of select topics to calculate a distance between the topics of the additional document and the plurality of select topics. Upon the distance meeting a threshold value, a new corpus is generated to include the additional document. The new document is annotated with the plurality of elements of the model.

  • Publication number: 20120116839
    Abstract: A system is provided in which multiple sub-organizations are part of a parent organization and participate in common risk management. The system includes a first sub-system whereby each sub-organization provides a risk assessment, a second sub-system whereby the risk assessment of each sub-organization is converted into a risk assessment of the parent organization and a third sub-system whereby the respective risk assessments of the sub-organizations and the parent organization are employed for additional analysis.

  • Patent number: 7827242
    Abstract: The invention provides a system adapted to enable contextual collaboration within a computer network. The invention provides a collaboration manager that supports manipulation of collaboration spaces. The collaboration spaces contain one or more collaboration elements that have potentially different collaboration modalities. The context manager maintains resources and resource interrelationships within contexts. The resources can include collaboration elements, processes, tasks, business objects, users, and/or roles. A view generator selects a set of the resources to be displayed to a user of the computer network. The invention also includes an interface adapted to allow applications to specify commands to manipulate collaboration spaces, commands to maintain resources and resource interrelationships within contexts, and queries for context-sensitive views.
