A corpus curation method, system, and non-transitory computer readable medium, include mapping a kinematic motion of a robot to a granular feature of an item in the corpus and answering a user question using the mapped kinematic motion embedded in an answer by the robot.

A computerized method for generating monitoring rules, comprising: presenting to a user a spatio-temporal data indicative of a plurality of spatio-temporal attributes of a plurality of image objects in a space during a period; selecting, by a user, at least one of a spatial pattern and a temporal pattern represented in said spatio-temporal data; analyzing said at least one of a spatial pattern and a temporal pattern to identify at least one of a spatial related characteristic of at least some of said plurality of image objects and a temporal related characteristic of at least some of said plurality of image objects; automatically generating at least one monitoring rule to track an occurrence of said at least one of a location related characteristic and a temporal related characteristic.

A method of providing True Continuous Control Monitoring (CCM) of business processes for audit purposes is provided herein. The method includes the following steps: consolidating data from multiple sources, in case the transactional data is located in more than one source, to a single self contained and comprehensive source; identifying, in the single data source, data elements that are required for detection and reporting for each audit rule; translating and streaming, in case required, the transactions data into events, so that every change in a transaction is immediately reflected and identifiable; eliminating duplicate events for the same single transaction; applying the event processing engine to the events, based on event audit patterns derived from audit rules, possibly entered by non-programmers; and generating alert data in audit-style notation, to be reported back to the system, based on alert notifications derived from the event processing engine.

Implementing continuous control monitoring for audit purposes using a complex event processing environment

A method for evaluating a behavior of an entity, the method includes: converting a state machine representation of a behavior of an entity to a complex event processing (CEP) representation of the behavior of the entity; wherein the converting comprises defining a transition between multiple states of the state machine representation as a situation; and evaluating the behavior of the entity in response to the CEP representation.

A method and system for ADI (Active Dependency Integration) provides an information and execution model for the description of enterprise systems, solutions and services. It supports the modeling of various entities and business components (e.g. event, disk, application, activity, business process), the information that is associated with them (i.e. schema), and the semantic relationships among them (e.g. dependency between a business component and other business components and events). The ADI execution model monitors and manages business components and the relationships among them. It automatically updates business components information in response to events occurrences and constraints violations, and propagates changes in business components to other business components according to the dependency model.

Middleware is validated using a two layered modeling strategy for the generation of test suites. A high level model of the syntax of the programming language used to program the middleware generates a series of high level abstract programs. These high level abstract programs then undergo two separate translations. First they are translated directly into actual test programs, which are expressed in the programming language of the middleware. Second, they are translated into second models of the high level abstract programs. Running the model based test generator again on the second models produces a set of suites of test cases, each test case consisting of data inputs and predicted results for one of the actual test programs. The actual test programs are run repetitively using the middleware execution engine. The results are compared with the predicted results, using a generic validation engine.
