Abstract: Restoring data to a data store that suffered corrupted data over a time period is disclosed. A system may provide an interface to specify a time window and filter conditions for identifying corrupted data in an object in a data store, such as, but not limited to, a corrupted NoSQL table. Corrupted data is identified by applying the filter conditions to change logs for the data object (e.g., the No SQL table) in the data store. Repair operations are determined for individual items identified via the filter conditions. Identified corrupted data for items may be corrected, from change logs or backup data in some instances (e.g., data may be deleted, or updated or replaced with data from a backup of the data store when necessary).

A UT may manage a database of ephemeris information to ensure freshness of the ephemeris information.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method performed by an issuer computer comprises receiving an authorization request for a transaction between a cardholder and a merchant using a first account identifier. A repository is searched for a preference set with the issuer by a cardholder to use a second account identifier when at least one transaction is received for the first account identifier. The transaction is authorized using the second account identifier in place of the first account identifier without knowledge by the merchant that the second account identifier was used. An authorization response is then returned to the merchant.

Abstract: Precision and chip contamination-free placement of two-dimensional (2D) material and van der Waals (VDW) layered materials accelerates both the study of fundamental properties and novel device functionality. The system transfers 2D materials utilizing a combination of a narrow transfer-stamper and viscoelastic and optically transparent film. Precise placement of individual 2D materials results in vanishing cross-contamination to the substrate. The 2D printer results in an aerial cross-contamination improvement of two to three orders of magnitude relative to state-of-the-art transfer methods from a source of average area sub um{circumflex over (?)}2. The transfer-stamper does not physically harm any micro/nanostructures preexisting on the target substrates receiving the 2D material such as, nanoelectronics, waveguides or micro-ring resonators.

The method of cloning comprises of generating a set of dynamic configuration files for the set of nodes based on the predefined restore rules and the validation and also generating a set of tokens for the set of nodes to communicate status of refresh. Further the target application is restored based on the set of dynamic configuration files and the set of sequential actions at each of the set of nodes is performed based on the status of set of tokens.

Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for reducing account churn rate through intelligent collaborative filtering. A user may utilize an online account with the service provider to perform various actions and generate account usage data, such as usage of various service subcategories of the service provider or different subcategorizations for the user. Based on the current user's usage of services and other subcategorizations of the user, the user may be compared to other past users that have left the service provider utilizing collaborative filtering for matching users and user vectorization. For example, a matrix of the past users may be made based on the number of matching user that fall into the same categorizations. Each row of the matrix may be vectorized and compared to current user. If this comparison indicates potential attrition of the account, a remediation action may be taken.
