Abstract: A master node may be configured with helper nodes in a one-to-many structure in a multicast tree for data streaming. A master node may receive network requests from the helper nodes in order to construct a pingback response. A master node may establish a network latency, for each of the helper nodes according to the pingback responses, to form a broadcast timing index. A master node may create routing tables from the broadcast timing index for local multicast routing at helper nodes within the multicast tree. A master node may send the routing tables from the master node to each of the helper nodes to arrange helper nodes in proximity to one another and create helper tiers within the multi-cast tree. A master node may stream data from the master node to the helper nodes according to a center-to-edge order of the multicast tree based on the routing table.

Abstract: The embodiments described herein are configured to annotate engineering record (“ER”) data from database tables and their corresponding attributes for analytics tools consumption and to combine the database tables into one consumable entity that can expose a list of attributes to the customer. Attributes may be converted into standardized attributes based on analyzing attribute data types. This data can then be extracted by analytics tools via the common data reporting layer to generate one or more visualizations at a display of at a user's computer system. Such a solution requires far less technical understanding and implementation logic to enable users to focus on analytics rather than view building.

Abstract: A system and process that manages access to a resource in an enterprise service-oriented architecture environment. The system recognizes a master for each resource that has ultimate control over the respective resource. The master grants access to the resource though a lock system. If a system does not relinquish access to the resource, then the master is able to reclaim the lock to ensure the continued availability of the resource to all systems. This system ensures data coherency, while also improving performance by diminishing the amount of time a resource is unnecessarily locked and the time to obtain a lock.

Abstract: Tools and techniques for performing a mass change to data are described. Attribute values in a data set can be replaced or overwritten based on a user request. The user request can be based on user selections and inputs made via a user interface. The user can limit the attribute values that are replaced based on attribute, attribute value, and/or other designation. The user interface can facilitate user execution of the mass change by presenting lists of attribute values and/or attributes to the user for selection. The list of attribute values can be limited based on a user designation of data elements for mass change. A mass change component can be configured to control directly or indirectly the user interface or portions thereof. The mass change component can initiate the mass change of the data, based on the user selections and inputs.
