Abstract: Example embodiments of the present invention relate to a method, a system, and a computer program product for disease outbreak prediction analytics. The method includes calculating a respective correlation value for each outbreak attribute pair among a set of outbreak attributes for a data set regarding a disease and assigning a weight value for each outbreak attribute according to the correlation values. A risk value for the disease then may be determined according to the weight values.

Abstract: Activity-related data associated with a subject entity is obtained. Weight values are assigned to portions of the obtained activity-related data, wherein the weight values range between a low entity location-predictive weight value to a high entity location-predictive weight value, and wherein the portions of obtained activity-related data form a plurality of data paths. The assigned weight values are added along each data path of obtained activity-related data to compute a plurality of data path weight values. A past, present and/or future location of the subject entity is determined based on a selection of one of the plurality of data path weight values. For example, the location associated with the data path with the highest data path weight value is selected as the location of the subject entity.

Abstract: A method and product for modeling and managing requirements in a complex integrated system, which comprises creating a set of requirements which can be implemented within all the components of the complex integrated system. Each requirement may be characterized as a point on the circumference of a circle, the characterization being an assignment of a requirement type. This type determines which circle the point will be located on, assigning a unique immutable numerical value to each requirement that determines in which order the point is placed on the previously determined circle. A location is also determined for each requirement. The location may determine the position of the requirement in relation to other requirements on the circumference of one of the set of circles. Sectors are also formed within the set of circles, as a function of a set of architectural principles and interfaces are identified between points, represented as chords.
