Patent number: 11630867Abstract: A machine learning model repeatedly scans data exhaust for workstations (for which there are retention requirements regarding data exhaust) over a period of time. The machine learning model analyzes the respective data exhaust and the retention requirements to determine respective data exhaust logging parameters for each workstation. The machine learning model monitors respective data exhaust activity for each workstation over a subsequent period of time. An instance is identified in which logging activity of data exhaust for an identified workstation fails the retention requirements. An ameliorative action designed to satisfy the respective retention requirements for the identified workstation is executed.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2021Date of Patent: April 18, 2023Assignee: KYNDRYL, INC.Inventors: Michael Seth Silverstein, Martin G. Keen, Jeremy R. Fox, Zachary A. Silverstein

Patent number: 11600165Abstract: A computer-implemented method for re-notifying a user about a previous notification is disclosed. The computer-implemented method includes determining a baseline notification rate of the user. The computer-implemented method further includes determining whether the user's current notification rate exceeds a predetermined threshold with respect to the baseline notification rate. The computer-implemented method further includes determining, in response to the user's current notification rate exceeding the predetermined threshold, whether renotification of a notification is required. The computer-implemented method further includes re-notifying, in response to determining that renotification of the notification is required, the user about the notification.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2021Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Zachary A.
