A hybrid simulation system to model cascading events within a black box system may include a tessellated field operable to allow a plurality of black box components to execute on a processor and communicate without needing a direct connection between the black box components. The black box components have transfer functions defined over a common coordinate system and time.

Looking glass: a hybrid simulation system to model cascading events within a black box system

A system and method for processing documents by utilizing the textual content and layout of the documents, including visual indicators, to more efficiently and reliably process the documents across various document types. The system and method identifies visually distinguishable elements within the document, such as section and sub-section boundary indicators, to mark, divide and label the boundaries and content type such that the sections are more clearly identifiable and easily processed. The system and method uses known elements, including section heading types, keywords, section type classifiers, sub-section heading constructs, stop words, and the like to adaptively identify and process a broad range of document types. The system and method continually refines and updates these known elements and allows users to discover and define new elements for further refinement and updating.
