According to some embodiments of the present invention there is provided a computerized method for visually modifying a rule. The method may comprise receiving a rule and two or more data records, the rule comprising two or more computation instructions and each one of the data records comprising one or more physical location value. The method may comprise displaying a simulation comprising visual objects, each of the visual objects showing a result of applying the rule to one of the data records, and displayed on a computerized display at a position corresponding to the physical location value of the data records. The method may comprise receiving a marking from a user of one or more of the visual objects on the computerized display. The method may comprise modifying the computation instructions to produce a modified rule, based on the markings, and sending the modified rule.

Rule adjustment by visualization of physical location data

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.

Visual rules for decision management

A method of adapting an event processing component. The method comprises designating an event processing component having a plurality of event processing agents which carry out a plurality of rules to process a plurality of events, selecting at least one rules correctness requirement, and automatically adjusting, using a processor, the plurality of event processing rules to comply with the at least one correctness requirement.

Method of adapting an event processing component having a plurality of event processing agents which carry out a plurality of rules complying with at least one correctness requirement to process a plurality of events

A system that includes: a configuration management system configured to receive resource updates submitted by developers of a product line; an update monitor configured, in manual monitoring, to mark each submitted resource update with respective variability data specified as relevant to the update submission, by the developer; and a tracer configured, in automatic monitoring, to trace portions of the updated resource into respective features or products of the product line, to determine variability data relevant to the update submission, wherein when an update request is initiated by the developer, the configuration management system is configured to associate the submitted resource updates with the update request based on common variability data, to provide resource updates on demand, based on variability data, wherein in automatic update, the configuration management system is configured to notify developers on resource updates, based on variability data common to the updated resource and the notified developers.

Configuration management system for software product line development environment

A method that includes: modeling a software system having pairs of coupled software components to yield a platform-independent model of pairs of respective platform-independent software component models associated with platform-specific software components; applying a materialization process to the platform-independent model to yield a platform-specific model by selecting respective concrete platform specific software components for the software component models; analyzing the platform-specific model to identify mismatched pairs of concrete platform-specific software components; re-modeling the platform-specific model such that each identified mismatched pair becomes coupled together via a configurable glue component model which comprises interface maps usable to eliminate the mismatch; configuring the glue component models by determining, in response to a feedback from a user, code snippets associated with any of the interface maps; and transforming the configured glue component model into a computer code in the platform-specific language by assembling all code snippets into a single piece of code.

Integrating software components in a software system using configurable glue component models

An apparatus for monitoring transactions in a computer system includes monitoring events reported by components of the computer system responsively to a flow of the transactions through the system. A state machine model and a rule-based model are jointly applied to the monitored events, so as to identify respective transaction-level events and business-level events. A status of the flow of the transactions is assessed responsively to the transaction-level events and the business-level events.

Multi-level transaction flow monitoring

A computer-implemented method for monitoring transactions in a computer system includes monitoring events reported by components of the computer system responsively to a flow of the transactions through the system. A state machine model and a rule-based model are jointly applied to the monitored events, so as to identify respective transaction-level events and business-level events. A status of the flow of the transactions is assessed responsively to the transaction-level events and the business-level events.

A method, device and computer program product that monitor situations. The method includes: processing information indicative of an occurrence of events to detect, in response to a current rule set, an occurrence of at least one situation that belongs to a situation set; wherein at least one rule sub-set out of the rule set defines at least one relationship between events that should occur within a lifespan; receiving a request to update a first rule; updating the first rule to provide a first updated rule while continuing to detect an occurrence of situations not affected by the update of the first rule.

Device, method and computer program product for situation monitoring

A method and system for establishing a situation for use in an event-driven application receives one or more events, and queries an external database for obtaining auxiliary data defining relevant external knowledge for detecting the situation. The event or events are integrated with the auxiliary data for generating a composite event defining the situation. The database query is constructed in real time based on the received events with a query language using SQL primitives.
