An object-oriented system provides a comprehensive and integrated tool to manage, operate, analyze and inspect structures by providing 3-D visualization of the structures, a database interface, connectivity with one or more databases, a data display and analysis capabilities. The structural model is stored as an object-oriented, serialized file as a series of objects, including primitives, coordinates, object names, group names and other object identifiers. The system integrates various types of...

Example embodiments provide for preserving memory resources by selecting property values to be assigned time-date information used in resolving conflicts between sync values. The property values may be selected based on the available resources of a remote device, e.g., when the time-date information is to be stored in a field of limited space. Further, the property values may be selected based on historical information, such as the most recently or frequently modified values. Other example embod...

During synchronization of data between a remote device and a local device, it can be determined if a value for a property on a remote device has changed since a last synchronization of the property between the remote device and a local machine. A remote representation of a property value is compared to a local representation associated with the same property value. If the representations are identical, it can be determined that the property value did not change on the remote device. If, however,...

Systems and methods for verifying relevance between terms and Web site contents are described. In one aspect, site contents from a bid URL are retrieved. Expanded term(s) semantically and/or contextually related to bid term(s) are calculated. Content similarity and expanded similarity measurements are calculated from respective combinations of the bid term(s), the site contents, and the expanded terms. Category similarity measurements between the expanded terms and the site contents are determin...

In an embodiment of a method of establishing a computer-based communication session involving a user of a computer, notification may be received from the user of a desired participant and a desired communications application for the session. A participant identifier effective to identify the desired participant to the desired communications application may then be retrieved, and the retrieved identifier may be provided to the communications application. An embodiment of a system for computer-bas...

A technique is provided for enhancing performance of computer-assisted data operating algorithms in a medical context. Datasets are compiled and accessed, which may include data from a wide range of resources, including controllable and prescribable resources, such as imaging systems. The datasets are analyzed by a human expert or medical professional, and the algorithms are modified based upon feedback from the human expert or professional. Modifications may be made to a wide range of algorithm...

Disclosed is a technique for processing a base model. The base model is received. Then, the base model is used to create a ViewType comprising a ViewType object, one or more ViewList objects corresponding to classes in the base model, and one or more ViewElem objects corresponding to attributes in the base model.

An information management system which enables analysis on basis of a processing history of content with use of a portable displaying-and-recording medium, includes a log recording function of managing user identification data to specify a user who owns the portable displaying-and-recording medium and content identification data to specify content, and recording the user identification data and the content identification data in an associated manner after the user performs processing of the cont...

A computer-implemented method is provided for performing key lookups. The method comprises accessing a header of a given one of a plurality of nodes in a tree-based data index structure. The given node comprises the header and a plurality of partitions. Each partition comprises at least one key. The header of the given node comprises a selected key from each of a selected plurality of the partitions. The method also comprises choosing, using a search key, a selected key in the header. The method...

A computer-based method with multilevel hashing for lookup of a complex nested object (such as access control list) which has a plurality of nesting levels and each level has at least one element. Method stores representatives of a complex nested object in a data structure at locations determined by recursive multilevel hashing of the complex nested object elements. When needed, a match for an inputted complex nested object is determined by applying the same recursive multilevel hashing to the i...
