Transforming the one or more Knowledge Media into consumable steps. Extracting hardware information from the one or more Knowledge Media. Generating a three-dimensional point cloud model of the hardware based on the one or more Knowledge Media, and outputting an augmented reality experience based on an annotated three-dimensional point cloud model.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining, from a service management database, one or more change tickets and one or more incident tickets relating to an information technology infrastructure, defining one or more change-incident pairs based on linkages between the incident tickets and the change tickets, identifying, from the change-incident pairs, one or more dimensions affecting outcomes of implementation of one or more change types, generating at least one recommendation for altering implementation of subsequent changes of a given change type to the information technology infrastructure based on the identified dimensions, applying the at least one recommendation to the implementation of one or more subsequent changes of the given change type to configuration items in the information technology infrastructure, monitoring the information technology infrastructure to determine outcomes of the subsequent changes of the given change type, and modifying the at least one recommendation responsive to the monitoring.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method is provided in which a first ordinal data set is received and analyzed to construct one or more models that describe informativeness of data in the first ordinal data set in predicting a first measured outcome of one or more projects associated with the first ordinal data set. A second ordinal data set is received, and a second measured outcome of a project associated with the second ordinal data set is predicted based, at least in part, on the one or more models.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method is provided for verifying the setup of a current computer in need of repair, parsing and updating a previously created activity log file to provide usable steps that refer to the appropriate configuration settings for the computer being repaired. The method includes obtaining an indication of a problem on a remote computer, reviewing stored log files to determine if an old log file associated with the problem exists and if the old log file does not exist, creating a new log file to store steps associated with repair operations. The method also includes if the old log file exists, retrieving the old log file and obtaining the remote computer configurations, parsing the old log file to identify references to configuration settings and comparing the configuration settings in the old log file with the remote computer configuration.
