Abstract: A method of generating process trace clusters includes receiving a set of process traces, where a process trace is an application level event log from a computer system; receiving an identification of node types and edge types of the application event log to generate a heterogeneous information network (HIN) graph, where a temporal node type value is a difference between a current system time and a reference timestamp divided by a user chosen time granularity parameter, performing dimension reduction of the HIN to generate clusters of new event types, generating a set of meta-paths that connect nodes of a same reduced event type in the application event log, calculating similarities between process traces using the new event type clusters, and clustering the set of process traces to generate a plurality of disjoint graph models of processes in the application event log based on the clusters of new event types.

Abstract: At a cloud platform, a class of feed is received for an external feed corresponding to an information source, as are an instruction corresponding to a create operation for the external feed, and a dictionary input corresponding to parameters expected by the information source. The external feed produces a corresponding class of events. At the cloud platform, a handler is selected based on the received class of feed and the received create operation; the input dictionary is transferred to the handler; and the handler generates a unique destination to receive events for the class of events. The handler on the cloud platform generates a unique request to the information source to generate events of the class of feed to the unique destination and sends the request to the information source. Events generated from the information source responsive to the unique request are received at the unique destination.

Abstract: An action sequence including a plurality of actions and a corresponding input dictionary are obtained. A first container, running an image for a first one of the actions implemented in a first programming language, is instantiated, and the image is executed on the input dictionary to obtain a first action result; the input dictionary is then updated with the first action result to obtain an updated input dictionary. A second container, running an image for a second one of the actions implemented in a second programming language, different than the first programming language, is instantiated, and the image is executed on the updated input dictionary to obtain a second action result; the updated input dictionary is further updated with the second action result to obtain a further updated input dictionary. The input dictionaries are independent of the programming languages.
