At least one unique collection of storage artifacts can be specified to indicate that the storage artifact is a member of the unique collection. Each storage artifact can be a discrete object comprising digitally encoded content that is stored as a node within a tree structure of a tangible storage medium. The collection can be referenced by a set of different storage artifacts to form a collection of related storage artifacts. Each storage artifact can correspond to different collections, wherein membership within a collection is independent of a storage path within the tree structure. A file management action relating to the storage artifact can be performed. The file management action can be dependent upon the storage artifact being a member of the unique collection.

Collections for storage artifacts of a tree structured repository established via artifact metadata

A computer-implemented method for providing contextual outputs based on varying coordinates related to a target event is provided. The method is implemented by a processor. The processor receives the target event based on a user input and the varying coordinates. The processor then executes a semantic analysis and relationships building operation on the varying coordinates and the target event to generate proposals and provides the contextual outputs based on the proposals. Note that the semantic analysis and relationships building operation reduces recommendation errors by and increases a computing efficiency of the processor with regard to providing the contextual outputs.

Utilizing varying coordinates related to a target event to provide contextual outputs

Systems, methods, apparatuses and computer program products leveraging an internet of things network integrated into a surrounding environment to detect a presence of users within engagement zones surrounding content displayed in a physical location. One or more IoT devices equipped with sensors, audio systems, video systems and/or user input capabilities record interactions with the displayed content, and capture behavioral cues indicating an expressed interest in the content by users. Digital versions of the displayed content are delivered to one or more devices associated with the user. Additional content associated with the displayed content or similar content having one or more of the same distinguishing characteristics may be aggregated with the digital versions of the displayed content and delivered to the user. Aggregated content delivery can be delayed until users are in a safe, suitable location to review the aggregated content being delivered.

Personalized content aggregation and delivery

A sensor-enabled smart device may be recommended to a user. The sensor-enabled smart device may be identified from a registry on a network. The smart device may have the ability to send and receive real-time data over the network. A value of the device, to the user, may be determined based on user analytics. A vendor through which to sell the device may be determined based on market analytics. A sale of the device via the vendor may be recommended to the user.

Smart device recommendations

Processors configured by aspects of the present invention collect pricing metrics that are applicable to restocking operations executed to restock different individual commodities within different respective ones of a plurality of networked bins. In response to determining that a quantity of a first commodity within a first of the bins is below a threshold restocking level, processors combine a first restocking operation that restocks a first restocking quantity of the first commodity within the first bin with a second restocking operation that restocks a second restocking quantity of a second commodity within a second bin of the plurality of bins into a combined restocking operation, in response to determining that executing the combined restocking operation generates a combination cost saving relative to a cost of executing the first restocking operation without combining with the second restocking operation.

Automated procurement device

A method and system for improving network delivery is provided. The method includes receiving an Internet based event for a user. The Internet based event is associated with user attributes, of the user, retrieved from a specialized network and it is determined that the user is associated with the Internet based event. A functionality status of a mobile hardware device of the user is determined and current parameters of the user and current characteristics of the user are analyzed. Resulting network based delivery options associated with the Internet based event for the user are determined.

Network delivery system

Machines, process, and articles of manufacture are provided wherein evaluations of a subscriber transaction or expenditure are provided. This evaluation may include receiving and considering one or more measured real-time first metrics of the subscriber, evaluating one or more received first metrics of the subscriber, receiving two or more financial metrics, one related to the transaction or the expenditure, and one related to the subscriber, and determining whether the subscriber transaction or expenditure should be assigned a full or partial authorized status. In an embodiment, the subscriber or a proxy may override a returned authorization to proceed with the subscriber transaction, a returned rejection, or returned advice.

Real-time expenditure and transaction management

First information is captured based on monitoring interactions between a user of a communication device and multiple entities. Second information is determined based on monitoring a schedule including upcoming scheduled activities. An incoming call indication and at least a calling phone number related to an incoming call for the communication device are received. Contextual information related to at least the calling phone number and a relevance factor indicating a level of relevance of the incoming call are determined based on the first information and the second information. An indication of the incoming call, the contextual information, and the relevance factor are provided on the communication device.

Presenting context and relevance of incoming calls

Disclosed aspects include geo-fence management using a cluster analysis technique. A set of dynamic user data is received from a set of users. The cluster analysis technique may be used to process the set of dynamic user data. Accordingly, a geo-fence opportunity event is detected using the cluster analysis technique. Based on a selection criterion with respect to the geo-fence opportunity event, it is determined to provide an opportunity for a subset of the set of users. In response to making the determination, the opportunity can be provided for/to the subset of the set of users.

Geo-fence management using a cluster analysis technique

A method can include discovering a plurality of services that are complementary to an offered service and selecting a service from the plurality of services as a candidate for integration with the offered service. The method further can include automatically generating a new service, using a processor, by integrating the candidate service with the offered service. The new service can be included in a service catalog.

Autonomic discovery and integration of complementary internet services

A mechanism is provided in a data processing system for content analysis based automatic selection of user communities or groups of users. The mechanism receives content to be published from a user and performing content analysis on the content to identify a context of the content. The mechanism identifying a social collaboration community based on the user's associations with social collaboration communities, the context of the content, and a community registry of social collaboration communities. The mechanism publishes the content in the identified social collaboration community.
