US Patent:

7324918, Jan 29, 2008

Filed:

Dec 30, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/275430

Inventors:

Philip E. Brown - Westfield NJ, US
Colin Goodall - Rumson NJ, US
Sylvia Halasz - Fair Haven NJ, US

Assignee:

AT&T Corp - New York NY

International Classification:

G06F 19/00

US Classification:

702181, 714 25, 600300

Abstract:

A method and a processing device are provided for forecasting whether a record of data for an individual is associated with an outcome. Whether an n-gram associated with one of a group of predictors matches an n-gram included in the record of data is determined. When the n-gram included with the one of the group of predictors matches the n-gram in the record of data, a prediction is made as to whether the record of data is associated with the outcome based on a value assigned to the one of the group of predictors.

International Classification:

G06F 19/00

US Classification:

702181, 714 25

Abstract:

A method and a device are provided for forecasting a volume associated with an outcome. A determination is made with respect to whether n-grams associated with a group of predictors matches n-grams included in records of data. A probability is estimated with respect to each of the records of data being associated with the outcome based on a value assigned to a respective one of the group of predictors when the n-gram associated with the respective one of the group of predictors is determined to match the n-gram included in a respective one of the records of data. An estimate of the volume associated with the outcome is calculated based on the estimated probabilities.

Assignee:

AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P. - Atlanta GA

International Classification:

G06F 7/00
G06F 17/00

US Classification:

707661

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer program products for database table aggregation are provided. A method includes encoding first and second components via a waveform definition, the first and second components specifying first and second criteria, respectively, for aggregating data. The method includes generating a complex periodic aggregation waveform (CPAW) having variable-sized square waves representing the components in a repeating pattern corresponding to the definition and the criteria, and which spans a first axis. The method includes providing a maximum byte count for aggregated data stored in a table defined by the first and/or second criteria, aggregating the data in accordance with the criteria, and creating a new table for overflow of data determined for the table when the maximum byte count is exceeded. The method includes updating the CPAW with results of the aggregation and generating a waveform representing the new table along a second axis.

US Classification:

Abstract:

Database table aggregation is implemented by a method that includes encoding first and second components via a waveform definition, the first and second components specifying criteria for aggregating data. The method also includes generating a complex waveform representing the components in a pattern corresponding to the waveform definition and criteria, which spans a first axis indicative of a time period for aggregating the data. The method further includes providing a byte count for aggregated data stored in a first table defined by the criteria, aggregating the data for the time period, and creating a second table for overflow data when the count is exceeded. The method also includes updating the complex waveform to reflect results of the aggregation that includes generating a waveform representing the second table along a second axis depicted at a location corresponding to a time in which the data aggregation for the first table was initiated.

US Classification:

726 22, 726 23, 726 26, 709225, 370230

Abstract:

Method and apparatus for port sweep detection in a network is described. In one example, log data is obtained for a period of time. The log data is associated with a plurality of devices in the network. The log data is processed to identify connection requests from a source key for a port at a number of target internet protocol (IP) addresses. An alarm is generated if the number of target IP addresses associated with the connection requests from the source key exceeds a threshold.

International Classification:

US Classification:

Abstract:

The testing of a series of commands is enhanced using a multilevel approach that employs orthogonal arrays within orthogonal arrays. Specifically, an Orthogonal Array (OA) is applied within each operation and then re-applied across the different operations. Thus, the process initially applies an OA to an intra-operation covering the different combinations of command parameters associated with an operation. The process applies an OA to an inter-operations OA covering the combinations of all command parameters.
