Abstract: A system and method for identifying a value gap in a patent portfolio strategy of an organization. A processor of a computing system defines a first data cluster that includes a first plurality of focus areas that are ranked according to an internal ranking of the organization, and a second data cluster that includes a second plurality of focus areas having a universal market significance. A patent worthiness is ranked so that the second plurality of focus areas is ranked according to a universal ranking. A Kemeny distance is calculated between the internal ranking and the universal ranking for each focus area of the first plurality of focus areas. A loss function is applied using the Kemeny distance to calculate the value gap score which defines a business penalty for the misalignment between the patent portfolio strategy of the organization and a universal market focus.

Abstract: Peripheral device access support in a distributed computing resource cluster is described. In one example, an application can be supported in a container on a virtual machine in a distributed computing resource cluster. A need or requisite of the container for access to a peripheral device is identified. A device profile is created for the container and associated with the isolation environment. The device profile can be relied upon to check and confirm the compliance of one or peripheral devices on various host machines in the resource cluster. First, one or more host machines having access to the peripheral device are identified in the resource cluster. Then, a check for compliance of the peripheral device on one or more of the host machines is performed based on the device profile. The container is instantiated for the application on one of the host machines based on the check for compliance.

Abstract: A method of forming sublithographic features. The method comprises forming a pattern of lines at a first pitch, the lines comprising horizontal portions and sloped portions. A spacer material is formed adjacent to the lines and portions of the spacer material are removed to form spacers on the lines, the spacers comprising a second pitch. The lines are removed. A sloped profile of the lines prevents the formation of loops of the spacer material, enabling the formation of sublithographic features without using a chop mask or chop mask process acts. Additional methods are disclosed.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for detecting sensitive personal information in a storage device. A block delta list containing a list of changed blocks in the storage device is processed. After identifying the changed blocks from the block delta list, a search is performed on those identified changed blocks for sensitive personal information using a character scanning technique. After identifying a changed block deemed to contain sensitive personal information, the changed block is translated from the block level to the file level using a hierarchical reverse mapping technique. By only analyzing the changed blocks to determine if they contain sensitive personal information, a lesser quantity of blocks needs to be processed in order to detect sensitive personal information in the storage device in near real-time. In this manner, sensitive personal information is detected in the storage device using fewer computing resources in a shorter amount of time.

Abstract: A method and a sensitive data discovery engine (SDDE) are provided for discovering substantial sensitive data in source systems spanning across similar and variant data sources and applications. The SDDE configures a scanning pathway for scanning data based on a predefined or configurable unique data classification. The scanning pathway defines a sequence of one or more match operations including master data field, dictionary, code, pattern and exact data matches to be performed on the data for the unique data classification. The SDDE executes the match operations in the scanning pathway on the data based on a scan level, scores the data, and determines sensitive data. The SDDE generates a sensitive data discovery map report including locations of the sensitive data and discovery metadata including information of users and programs that access the sensitive data, generated by inspecting application codes, for use in downstream data protection and governance operations.
