Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, systems, computing devices, computing entities, and/or the like for determining optimized solutions to input problems in a containerized, cloud-based (e.g., serverless) manner. In one embodiment, an example method is provided. The method comprises: receiving a problem type of an input problem originating from a client computing entity; mapping the problem type to one or more selected solver types; generating one or more container instances of one or more compute containers, each compute container corresponding to a selected solver type; generating a problem output using the one or more container instances; and providing the problem output comprising a solution to the input problem to the client computing entity. In various embodiments, optimized solutions for input problems are determined using a cloud-based multi-domain solver system configured to dynamically allocate computing and processing resources between different solution-determining tasks.
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, systems, computing devices, computing entities, and/or the like for determining optimized solutions to input problems in a containerized, cloud-based (e.g., serverless) manner using multiple solver types. In one embodiment, an example method involves receiving a problem type of an input problem originating from a client computing entity, mapping the problem type to one or more selected solver types, generating one or more container instances of one or more compute containers with each compute container corresponding to a selected solver type, generating a problem output using the one or more container instances, and providing the problem output to the client computing entity, where the problem output includes an optimized solution to the input problem that can be used to perform one or more prediction-based actions.
Abstract:
A computer communication system promotes collaboration between organizations by enabling secure sharing of information between organizations having separate databases. The system provides a portal generator for creation of one or more portals or channels through which data of each organization can be shared. The portals can be setup for planned or emergency events within a given region, e.g., a municipality, with tasks associated with each event. Users can register to become members of each portal, with membership being assigned automatically or with respect to predetermined criteria. In some embodiments, permissions of each member can be altered to ensure selected access to data within the channel based on the organization with which the member associates. After being registered, members can receive real-time updates on event progress from members within their organization and/or external to their organization.
Abstract:
A Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) system is specially configured to account for the physical condition of emergency personnel, which can affect their ability to effectively handle a particular incident. The CAD system tracks health, stress, and biometric status of each available emergency responder automatically and in real-time based on a wide range of collected information and to assess the suitability of available emergency responders to respond to a given emergency incident based upon such status information. Based on such status information, the CAD system can make intelligent recommendations to the emergency dispatcher by taking into account such things as the emergency responder's past experiences with a particular type of emergency incident, the current and cumulative status of the emergency responder, and projections as to the future condition of the emergency responder if dispatched to handle the emergency incident.

Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for ordering vertices in an image frame within a data stream, wherein the image frame corresponds to Earth-viewing data. A point of intersection of a primary pair of lines is determined and loaded into computer memory, and interrogated as to a sign of a signed remainder with respect to each of two secondary lines defined by the pairwise ordered sets of vertices. In the case of opposite remainder sign with respect to the two secondary lines, two provisional indices are swapped to obtain a rectified index for each of the four vertices. The process is repeated with respect to the signed remainder of the intersection point of the secondary lines relative to the primary lines. The four vertices are then fit, in accordance with index ordering, into a tiling of the surface of the Earth based on the rectified index of each of the four vertices.
Abstract:
A system and method for navigating a collection of toolbar items that are displayed on an electronic display screen. The toolbar items, such as buttons, are organized into an ordered set of toolbar pages. Each toolbar page contains a fixed number of toolbar items. One toolbar page from the set is displayed at a time in a fixed display area, e.g., a tile, on the display screen. User input causes the currently displayed toolbar page to be replaced by another toolbar page in the ordered set. The user input, such as a continuous swipe gesture across the toolbar display tile, determines the direction of navigation through pages in the ordered set and the speed of the page navigation. The toolbar display area can show the position of the currently displayed toolbar in the ordered set and animated transitions between toolbar items may be displayed to signal toolbar page replacements. A user input, such as a tap of a finger, can select the replacement toolbar.
Abstract:
A method of displaying objects of an application executes the application on a computer system. The application is configured to generate a plurality of application windows, and at least one of those application windows has indicia representing an object of something being developed by the application. The method then displays first and second application windows in a first window group on one or more monitors, and drags the second application window into a second window group to produce a given layout across the first and second window groups. In this case, the first application window remains in the first window group. The two application windows preferably are produced by a single instance of the application.
Abstract:
A large number of objects, such as objects representing beams and columns in an object-oriented enterprise engineering system, may be geometrically transformed in a model database by dividing the objects according to criteria into a number of ordered partitions and transforming the objects in each partition as an atomic operation. The number of objects that may be transformed is not constrained by the amount of memory available in the system. Objects that are to be transformed are organized into the ordered partitions, and the partitions are transformed in sequential order, such that all predecessors of a given object are transformed before, or in the same operation as, the given object. If a large transformation operation abnormally terminates before all the small transformation operations have been completed, the model database is, nevertheless, left in a consistent state. The transformation operation may be resumed from the point of interruption.
Abstract:
A method of manipulating a three-dimensional object displays a first view of a three-dimensional object on a touchscreen. The touchscreen has three-dimensional views associated with at least one pre-specified visually undelineated portion of the touchscreen. The method receives a touch input on the touchscreen in a visually undelineated portion, and determines a second view of the three-dimensional object based on the view assigned to the visually undelineated portion that received the touch input. The method displays the second view of the three-dimensional object on the touchscreen.
