| 20100115095 | AUTOMATICALLY MANAGING RESOURCES AMONG NODES - A system for managing resources automatically among nodes includes a node controller configured to dynamically manage allocation of node resources to individual workloads, where each of the nodes is contained in one of a plurality of pods. The system also includes a pod controller configured to manage live migration of workloads between nodes within one of the plurality of pods, where the plurality of pods are contained in a pod set. The system further includes a pod set controller configured to manage capacity planning for the pods contained in the pod set. The node controller, the pod controller and the pod set controller are interfaced with each other to enable the controllers to meet common service policies in an automated manner. The node controller, the pod controller and the pod set controller are also interfaced with a common user interface to receive service policy information. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100191724 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO IDENTIFY PROVIDERS IN WEB DOCUMENTS - An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a method of identifying providers. The method includes obtaining a results document from a search, wherein the results document comprises references to documents that contain a keyword. analyzing the results document to identify a plurality of the references. The method includes accessing each of the documents using the identified references and analyzing each of the accessed documents to determine a probabilistic value that the accessed document is associated with a provide. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100198839 | TERM EXTRACTION FROM SERVICE DESCRIPTION DOCUMENTS - Terms are extracted from service description documents describing desired services, and the terms are used to search for candidate service providers operable to provide the desired services. A matrix of terms and documents are determined from the service description documents. Singular value decomposition (SVD) is used to decompose the matrix. Eigen vectors from the SVD decomposition are weighted by top k singular values in a diagonal matrix S of singular values also generated from the decomposition. The weighted eigen vectors are used to rank terms from the matrix X based on relevance of the terms to the requirements for desired services described in the service description documents. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20100198840 | RANK-ORDER SERVICE PROVIDERS BASED ON DESIRED SERVICE PROPERTIES - Candidate service providers for a desired service are ranked. Terms describing service requirements for a desired service are determined. Service capability documents describing the services of the candidate service providers are determined using the terms describing the service requirements. Using singular value decomposition (SVD) and a metric, similarities between the terms describing the service requirements and the service capability documents are determined. The candidate service providers are ranked based on the similarities. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20100250396 | POPULATING A SERVICE REGISTRY WITH WEB CONTENT - One embodiment is a method that receives a list of service providers offering services at web sites and extracts content from the web sites to identify the services offered by the service providers. The method then populates service registries with the content. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100250515 | TRANSFORMING A DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES FOR WEB SERVICES - One embodiment is a method that receives a description of services desired by a service requestor and then crawls web sites to extract information on services offered by service providers. The extracted information is used to transform the description of services desired by the service requestor into an improved description of services. | 09-30-2010 |
