Abstract: Method, apparatus and systems for performing hardware-based memory migration and copy operations. Under the method, a first portion of memory in a computer system accessed via a first memory controller is migrated or copied to a second portion of memory accessed via a second memory controller using a hardware-based scheme that is implemented independent of and transparent to software running on a computer system. The memory migration and/or copy operations can be used to initialize a memory mirror configuration under which data in first and second portions of memory are mirrored, and to perform memory migration operations in which data in a first portion of memory is migrated to a second portion of memory under the control of hardware in a manner in which the memory migration can be performed during run-time without a significant reduction in performance.

Abstract: A method for enhancing on-premise order management systems (OMS) designed for fulfillment transactions with analytic and optimization technologies and services hosted in a shared multi-tenant software-as-a-service (SaaS) environment, such as a hybrid cloud. The computer-implemented method improves an order management system by leveraging a “punch-out” approach based on user exits to integrate with and augment currently implemented order management processing and transaction flows. Using the hybrid cloud, an entity may retain data such as its accumulated business, sales, test and other data, and then run analytical queries, which can scale to support distributed computing tasks. A framework adaptor/connector is leveraged by the OMS to provide a web client for communicating with and integrating to the SaaS analytics runtime environment, encapsulating all necessary connection pooling, security, and data marshaling complexity away from the order management system to meet strict service response time windows.

Abstract: A method for continuously tracking business performance impact of order sourcing systems and algorithms that decide how ecommerce orders should be fulfilled by assigning the items of the order to nodes in a fulfillment network such as stores, distribution centers, and third party logistics—to provide automatic root cause analysis and solution recommendations to pre-defined business problems arising from KPI monitoring. A Business Intelligence (BI) dashboard architecture operates with: 1) a monitoring module that continuously monitors business KPIs and creates abnormality alerts; and 2) a root cause analysis module that is designed specifically for each business problem to give real time diagnosis and solution recommendation. The root cause analysis module receives the created alert, and triggers conducting a root cause analysis at an analytics engine. The BI dashboard and user interface enables visualization of the KPI performance and root cause analysis results.

Abstract: A content aware pattern stamping tool that preserves the visual texture of an area within an image when filling the area with a pattern is provided. In one embodiment, the pattern stamping tool analyzes an area to be filled with a pattern to determine textural characteristics of the area. These textural characteristics may include reflectance and shading. Once the pattern stamping tool has determined the textural characteristics of the area, the pattern stamping tool fills the area with the pattern and applies the textural characteristics to the filled area. Through application of the textural characteristics, the pattern stamping tool generates an image that combines the pattern with the original textural characteristics of the area.
