Abstract: An approach is provided to determine one or more dynamic ordered tree structures and transition tree structures (e.g., based on one or more transitions of a device) to facilitate querying and/or accessing data stores. An apparatus and method determines to generate at least one index structure, determines to associate index objects of the generated index structure with one or more data objects of at least one data store, determines to generate at least one transition index structure based on the at least one generated index structure, and determines to associate the transition index structure with index objects corresponding to one or more data objects of at least one data store based on a transition of a device. Also, the method and apparatus determines to generate at least one query, and determines to generate at least one transition index structure where a current index structure to resolve the query is absent.

Abstract: An approach is provided for providing information clustering based on predictive social graphs. An information clustering platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of one or more social graphs associated with one or more users to cause, at least in part, a prediction of one or more future states of the one or more social graphs.

Abstract: An approach is provided for providing standard information processing pipelines. A standard pipeline generation platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of one or more information sources to cause an extraction of one or more least meaningful data components.

The standard pipeline generation platform further causes a compilation of one or more data repositories comprising the one or more isomorphic representations, wherein the one or more data repositories are available for processing by one or more services, one or more applications, or combination thereof. The standard pipeline generation platform also causes a loading of the one or more data repositories, the one or more isomorphic representations, or a combination thereof into the one or more information sources following the processing.

Abstract: An approach is provided for facilitating real-time execution of computations of data based on context information upon collection, storage, retrieval or use of the data. A data analysis platform determines context information associated with one or more data items stored at one or more nodes. It also determines one or more computations for processing the one or more data items based on the context information. A serialization of the one or more computations or corresponding context information is associated with the one or more data items for processing by the one or more nodes.
