A cloud computing system, which works in cooperation with a plurality of relay devices, is configured to receive measurement data transmitted from each of the relay devices arranged in respective bases and perform accumulation processing in a hierarchical structure of a logical tree form in a measurement database, and perform aggregation analysis processing on the measurement data subjected to the accumulation processing in the respective bases and for each integration target between the bases. The aggregation analysis processing is performed on the measurement data for the each integration target between the bases by recognizing a relationship between the bases under the same starting point on the basis of a measurement unit of a measurement value or a type of a measurement source as for the value in the source accumulated in the database as an ending point of the hierarchical structure.

Method and apparatus for stress management in a searchable data service. The searchable data service may provide a searchable index to a backend data store, and an interface to build and query the searchable index, that enables client applications to search for and retrieve locators for stored entities in the backend data store. Embodiments of the searchable data service may implement a distributed stress management mechanism that may provide functionality including, but not limited to, the automated monitoring of critical resources, analysis of resource usage, and decisions on and performance of actions to keep resource usage within comfort zones. In one embodiment, in response to usage of a particular resource being detected as out of the comfort zone on a node, an action may be performed to transfer at least part of the resource usage for the local resource to another node that provides a similar resource.

Machine data of an operating environment is conveyed by a network to a data intake and query system (DIQS) which reflects the machine data as timestamped entries of a field-searchable datastore. Monitoring functionality may search the machine data to identify notable event instances. A notable event processing system correlates the notable event instance to one or more triaging models which are executed against the notable event to produce a modeled result. Information of the received notable event and the modeled results are combined into an enhanced representation of a notable event instance. The enhanced representation conditions downstream processing to automatically perform or assist triaging of notable event instances to optimize application of computing resources to highest priority conditions in the operating environment.

In some aspects, the disclosure is directed to methods and systems for data storage and retrieval from a computer memory. A computing device may store a first hierarchical data structure having a first sequence of sub-data structures and a second hierarchical data structure having a second sequence of sub-data structures in memory. The computing device may link the first hierarchical data structure and the second hierarchical data structure together. The computing device may link the first hierarchical data structure and the second hierarchical data structure by inserting an identifier of a sub-data structure of the second sequence in the first sequence.

A network device is configured to (i) play back a media item indicated by a remote playback queue provided by a cloud-based computing system, (ii) receive an indication that a playback device is available for playback, (iii) display a now playing screen including (a) information identifying the media item, and (b) an icon that indicates that the network device is not in a connected state with any other network device, (iv) receive a first input selecting the icon, (v) in response to the first input, display a list of one or more available network devices including the playback device, (vi) receive a second input selecting the playback device from the list (vii) after receiving the second input, update the list to indicate that the playback device is selected for playback of the remote playback queue, and (viii) transfer playback of the remote playback queue from the network device to the playback device.

Methods and apparatuses for providing a permissions-aware search and knowledge management system that incorporates user suggested results, document verification, and intelligent user activity tracking across group hierarchies to improve the quality and relevance of search results are described. The permissions-aware search and knowledge management system may enable content stored across a variety of local and cloud-based data stores to be indexed, searched, and displayed to authorized users. The identification and ranking of relevant documents corresponding with a user's search query may take into account user suggested results from the user and others assigned to the same group as the user, whether the underlying content of a search result was verified by a content owner as being up-to-date, the amount of time that has passed since the underlying content was verified by the content owner, and the recent activity of the user and related group members.

A method for configuring a manufacturing operation management (MOM) data warehouse and providing a user interface (UI) to the MOM data warehouse configuration. The MOM data warehouse forms a database for the data handled within a manufacturing execution system. The method includes: a) mapping the data that has to be presented in the UI into a hierarchical data model being based on an industry classification of the manufacturing process controlled by the manufacturing execution system, the hierarchical data model having a number of levels; b) mapping the hierarchical data model into a radial control based UI; c) displaying in the radial control based UI at least two levels of the hierarchical data model; and d) providing navigation actions in order to scroll up and/or scroll down through the levels of the hierarchical data model.

The disclosed apparatus, systems, and methods relate to a location query mechanism that can efficiently determine whether a target entity is located within a region of interest (ROI). At a high level, the location query mechanism can be configured to represent a ROI using one or more polygons. The location query mechanism can, in turn, divide (e.g., tessellate) the one or more polygons into sub-polygons. Subsequently, the location query mechanism can use the sub-polygons to build an index system that can efficiently determine whether a particular location is within any of the sub-polygons. Therefore, when a computing device queries whether a particular location is within the region of interest, the location query mechanism can use the index system to determine whether the particular location is within any of the sub-polygons.

Disclosed is a computer program stored in a computer-readable medium according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. When the computer program is executed by one or more processors, the computer program allows the following operations for data caching to be performed and the operations may include an operation of generating a cache, an operation of caching at least some of the segments and at least one of records to the cache, an operation of reading the cache when receiving an inquiry request from a client, an operation of determining to read a cursor based on whether there is a segment or record corresponding to the inquiry request in the cache; and an operation of determining whether a query for at least one of a relational database and a hierarchical database is generated based on whether there is the segment or record in the cursor.

A data aggregation system is described, wherein the data aggregation system may include: a plurality of sensors distributed throughout an environment; a tile database comprising a memory for storing a hierarchy of tiled layers, wherein each layer in the hierarchy of tiled layers comprises a plurality of tiles; a tiling server, the tiling server configured to: receive sensor data from one or more sensors in the plurality of sensors; assign the sensor data to a base tile in a first layer in the hierarchy of tiled layers based on one or more properties of the one or more sensors; retrieve one or more aggregate tiles from the tile database based on an identity of the base tile in the first layer, the one or more aggregate tiles each taken from one or more further layers in the hierarchy of tiled layers; determine aggregate sensor data for each of the retrieved one or more aggregate tiles based on the sensor data stored on the base layer tile; assign the determined aggregate sensor data to the corresponding one or more aggregate tiles; and output the one or more aggregate tiles.
