  • Patent number: 11954134
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method can create a node-link model from a hierarchy table, which includes a plurality of records associated with a plurality of objects organized in segments. A record includes a unique identifier, a parent reference, and a value distribution for the associated object. The parent reference is the unique identifier of a parent object directing the value distribution to the associated object. The node-link model includes a plurality of nodes representing the objects and links connecting the nodes and representing value distributions between the objects. The method can generate a visual representation of the node-link model in a user interface and receive an input from the user interface. Responsive to the input, the method can change the visual representation to depict a portion of the node-link model based on a viewable scope of the node-link model and one or more viewable fields specified in the input.

  • Publication number: 20240067185
    Abstract: A technique for determining and compensating for a dead time of at least one actuator for lateral guidance or longitudinal guidance of a motor vehicle includes a device including at least one sensor or at least one sensor interface for detecting at least one actual value of a state of motion of the lateral guidance or longitudinal guidance. A unit of determination of the device is configured to determine the dead time of at least one actuator by comparing at least one target value of the state of motion calculated from a dynamic model with the recorded at least one actual value. A control unit of the device is configured to control the actuator depending on the detected state of motion and the certain dead time of at least one actuator, wherein the control unit outputs time-preceding control signals to the actuator around the dead time.

  • Publication number: 20220327113
    Abstract: Data enrichment and augmentation is disclosed. Machine data comprising at least one of a log message and a metrics data point is received. The received machine data comprises an identifier of an instance of a virtual machine. Based at least in part on the identifier of the instance of the virtual machine, a query for tags associated with the instance of the virtual machine is performed. At least one key-value pair is generated based at least in part on tags received in response to the query performed based at least in part on the identifier of the instance of the virtual machine. The received machine data is augmented with the at least one key-value pair generated based at least in part on the tags received in response to the query based at least in part on the identifier of the instance of the virtual machine.

  • Patent number: 11042534
    Abstract: A technique for logs to metrics synthesis is disclosed. A log message is received. It is determined that the received log message should be translated into a metrics data point. In response to determining that the received log message should be translated into a metrics data point, the metrics data point is generated using the received log message, the generated metrics data point comprising a timestamp, a metric name, a metric value, and a set of metadata key-value pairs. A time series in which to insert the metrics data point generated using the received log message is identified. The generated metrics data point is inserted into the identified time series.

  • Patent number: 10977269
    Abstract: Obfuscating data is disclosed. A processor identifies structured information in log data. The structured information is transformed in a manner that preserves the structure to form transformed raw data. The transformed raw data is sent to a remote analysis engine. The remote analysis engine receives a query and responds to the query by providing as results at least a portion of the transformed raw data. A processor is configured to de-transform the transformed raw data.

  • Publication number: 20140172839
    Abstract: A method of suggesting replacements for unavailable web pages is performed at a server system separate from a client system. A web page is identified. For documents in a collection of web pages, respective overlaps of content in the web page and the documents are determined based on stored information about content in the web page and the documents. One or more of the documents that have overlaps that satisfy a first criterion are selected. A request for a replacement for the web page is received from the client system and replacement web page information is provided to the client system. The replacement web page information is selected from the set consisting of A) one or more links to the one or more selected documents, B) a redirect to one of the one or more selected documents, and C) one of the one or more selected documents.
