An experiment manager is discussed for the design and execution of numerical experiments in composite simulation models, such as those created using the Smarter Planet Platform for Analysis Simulation of Health (Splash). The experiment manager independently elicits experiment-related information from each contributor of a component model, and uses this information to subsequently assist the creator of a composite model in selecting experimental factors, creating experimental designs based on these factors, and executing the experiments. This functionality permits cross-disciplinary modeling, simulation, sensitivity analysis and optimization in the setting of complex systems.

System for design and execution of numerical experiments on a composite simulation model

One embodiment provides a method, including: utilizing at least one processor to execute computer code that performs the steps of: receiving at least one heterogeneous system log from each of a plurality of systems, wherein each of the heterogeneous system logs comprises events corresponding to activities occurring within its corresponding system; for each of the plurality of systems, analyzing the events contained within its at least one heterogeneous system log to identify a plurality of entities, wherein each of the entities is associated with at least one of the activities; identifying relationships, across the plurality of systems, between entities within the plurality of entities; and linking (i) the entities having an identified relationship and (ii) the activities of those entities. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Deriving and interpreting users collective data asset use across analytic software systems

The present invention relates to a method and system for associating gene expression data with a disease name. A first data set associated with a plurality of genetic probes for a plurality of biological samples may be received. The first data set may be sorted based on a normalized gene expression values for the plurality of genetic probes. A largest value gap of the normalized gene expression values may be identified. A set of expressed genes within the first data set may be identified. An indexable document may be generated for a biological sample of the plurality of biological samples comprising data associated with the set of expressed genes. A second data set associated with an expressed gene of the set of expressed genes may be searched. A disease name may be associated with an expressed gene based on a threshold correlation between the disease name and the expressed gene.

Associating gene expression data with a disease name

A method to support ad hoc collaboration and generation of workflows for a team of users may comprise providing data from a provenance graph to launched applications, selectively using the provided data from the provenance graph and additional input to create derived data and derived outputs, and routing the derived data and the derived outputs to the provenance graph; recording, in the provenance graph, subsequences of the launched applications; recommending one of the recorded subsequences, based on the history of execution of the recorded subsequences of the launched applications; creating a new application with the recommended subsequences of the launched applications; launching the newly created application, and storing the newly created application in a catalog of applications for use by the user.

Embodiments of the invention relate to an architectural structure for representing an underlying business and tools to support dynamic adjustment of the structure. A social media metric is created and associated with a business metric of a component represented in the architectural structure, and an impact on the underlying business is identified and measured based upon this association. Accordingly, elements of the structure are parsed and analyzed, and in response to the analysis, the structure is dynamically modified to mitigate receipt of measured negative output data.

System and method for integrating text analytics driven social metrics into business architecture

An aspect of synchronization of time between simulation models includes receiving a specification request for generating a set of target time-series data using a set of source time-series data, obtaining specification information relating to the set of source time-series data, obtaining specification information relating to the set of target time-series data and obtaining the source time-series data; comparing the source specification information and the target specification information to determine if the set of source time-series data are time-aligned with the set of target time-series data, and converting the set of source time-series data to the set of target time-series data upon determination that time alignment is needed.

Synchronization of time between different simulation models

Embodiments relate to a method and computer program product for generating a composite simulated model. A method includes receiving a specification request for generating a set of target time-series data from a set of source time-series data and obtaining specification information relating to the set of source time-series data, obtaining specification information relating to the set of target time-series data, and obtaining the source time-series data. The method also includes comparing the source and target specification information to determine if the set of source time-series data are time-aligned with the set of target time-series data and converting the set of source time-series data to the set of target time-series data upon determination that time alignment is needed.

A business enterprise is assessed by a consultant using a computer implemented tool for practicing component business modeling techniques. The tool builds a map of components, filters the map to form a heat map and identifies collaborations. Key performance indicators are evaluated.
