  • Publication number: 20190235923
    Abstract: Among other things, there is coordination of the timing and execution (a) of allocations of amounts of real-world resources to competing uses of the resources, relative to (b) dynamic assessments of an overall state of a changing real-world system, in order to alter the overall state of the real-world system. A request is received for an allocation of an amount of a real-world resource of the real-world system to a particular use of the resource as of a particular allocation time. From time to time, information is ingested representing states of facets of the real-world system, to maintain the information current relative to the particular allocation time. A current overall state of the real-world system is dynamically assessed, based on the current information representing states of the facets of the real-world system, as of a time that is current relative to the particular allocation time.

  • Publication number: 20160232546
    Abstract: Among other things, there is regularly received through a communication network from providers of financial products or from an aggregator or both, current information about transactions that occur in accounts of consumers of financial products that are maintained with providers of the financial products. The received current transaction information is stored in a database of information about the respective consumers. Machine learning is applied to the stored transaction information and other information about the consumers in the database to generate model profiles of transactions in accounts of corresponding categories of consumers for corresponding financial products. As current information about transactions is received, transactions that have occurred in the accounts of the consumers of the financial products are analyzed using the model profiles for the applicable categories of customers and financial products.
