Abstract: A computer-assisted method to timely provide notifications of treatments, the method including receiving de-identified longitudinal medical records, each de-identified longitudinal medical record representing a record of a different anonymized patient and encoding information identifying a treatment received by the anonymized patient and receiving notification data including notification records, each notification record encoding information identifying a channel through which the notification was provided. The method includes determining a first channel impact model representing an impact of a notification provided through a first channel on a treatment being received, a second channel impact model representing an impact of a notification provided through a second channel on a treatment being received, and determining a multi-channel impact model representing an impact of notifications being provided through both the first channel and the second channel on a treatment being received.

Abstract: A system is presented that includes two data processing systems that are coupled via a network, each data processing system including a reconfigurable processor with a reconfigurable processor memory, a host that is coupled to the reconfigurable processor and that includes a host processor and a host memory that is coupled to the host processor, and a network interface controller (NIC) that is operatively coupled to the reconfigurable processor and to the host processor. The reconfigurable processor of one of the data processing systems is configured to implement a virtual function that uses a virtual address for a memory access operation. An application programming interface (API) in the host processor translates the virtual address into a physical address, and the NIC uses the physical address to initiate a direct memory access operation at the reconfigurable processor memory or the host memory of the other data processing system.

Abstract: Various known ways to make a Spyware are analyzed and countered. Spy-ware works by replacing the function address/value/body of certain Windows APIs with its own spying code. The Anti-spy invention counters it by replacing the tainted APIs with clean ones through reconstruction. This process is repeated periodically. Although the techniques illustrated here are applied on Microsoft Windows platform, the methodology can be used in other platforms as well.

Abstract: A computer-assisted method to timely provide notifications of treatments, the method including receiving de-identified longitudinal medical records, receiving notification data, identifying anonymized patients that received the treatment, identifying notifications for the treatment that were received by the recipients, determining, for each of the identified notifications, whether the recipient is an anonymized patient identified as having received the treatment, determining, for each of the identified notifications for the treatment determined to be received by a recipient that is an anonymized patient identified as having received the treatment, a time relationship between the time when the treatment was received by the anonymized patient and the time that the notification was received by the recipient that is the anonymized patient, and determining, for each of the anonymized patients that received the treatment, associations between one or more time relationships for notifications received by the anonymiz
