20140181831 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR OPTIMIZATION OF DATA PROCESSING IN A MapReduce FRAMEWORK - A map reduce frame work for large scale data processing is optimized by the method of the invention that can be implemented by a master node. The method comprises reception of data from worker nodes on read pointer locations pointing to input data of tasks executed by these worker nodes and stealing of work from these tasks, the work being stolen being applied to input data that have not yet been processed by the task from which work is stolen. | 06-26-2014 |
20150023206 | METHOD FOR SELECTING NODES IN A NETWORK, CORRESPONDING DEVICE, COMPUTER PROGRAM AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - The present disclosure relates to a method for selecting nodes in networks, especially in complex networks with a great number of interconnected nodes and edges, by using a first centrality computation to filter the nodes and deliver a sub-network with a smaller number of nodes, to which can be applied a second centrality computation. | 01-22-2015 |
20150120663 | METHOD OF DATA STORING AND DATA SYNCHRONIZATION IN A DISTRIBUTED DATA STORAGE SYSTEM - The present invention generally relates to distributed data storage systems, where different devices manipulate data shared by these devices. In particular, the technical field of the present invention is to related storing of data in a distributed data storage system and associated data synchronization for devices connecting to such a system. | 04-30-2015 |
20150127974 | METHOD OF STORING A DATA ITEM IN A DISTRIBUTED DATA STORAGE SYSTEM, CORRESPONDING STORAGE DEVICE FAILURE REPAIR METHOD AND CORRESPONDING DEVICES - The methods of the invention of storing a data item and the associated method of repair of a failed storage device allow exact repair of the data lost by a failed storage device in a distributed data storage system. As repaired data is exactly identical to lost data, this simplifies data integrity checking, which is appealing for distributed data storage systems that require a high level of data security. The methods and devices of the invention use erasure correcting codes that are optimized at the MBCR point such that they minimize both storage size required to store a data item and repair bandwidth required for data- and message exchange between the devices of the distributed storage system in case of repair. | 05-07-2015 |
20150181271 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROVIDING TARGETED CONTENT - It is provided a method for providing content for a video. The method includes steps of receiving, from a client device, a message comprising a first content identifier uniquely identifying a first piece of content for the video and a first relevancy score associated with the first piece of content, wherein the first piece of content and the first relevancy score are determined based on a user identifier that identifies a user and a video identifier that identifies the video; determining a second piece of content and a second relevancy score associated with the second piece of content based on the user identifier, the video identifier and playback context parameter including at least one of geographical location, device type and time; and if it is determined that the second relevancy score divided by computation cost for inlaying the second piece of content into the video is larger than the first relevancy score divided by computation cost for inlaying the first piece of content into the video, using the second piece of content for the video. | 06-25-2015 |
20150222627 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SECURELY ACCESSING A WEB SERVICE - A method for securely accessing a web service by a web application running in a browser on a user device through a network is disclosed. The web service is hosted by at least a device among which a local device is being accessed by the user device. The local device comprises a global name that uniquely identifies the local device and a certificate associated to the global name. The method further comprises a step of sending by the web application to the network a request for accessing the web service by addressing a generic name that identifies any device hosting the web service; a step of receiving from the network by the web application a response to the request comprising the global name identifying the local device hosting the web service; a step of connecting to the local device by addressing the global name in case the received global name is comprised in a list; a step of receiving the certificate from the local device; and a step of securely accessing the web service in case the certificate associated to the global name is verified by the browser. A generic name is a name under which any local device is accessible, that is, is common to all devices hosting the web services. The list comprises global names of devices being trusted for hosting the web service. | 08-06-2015 |
20150347235 | DATA BACKUP METHOD AND DEVICE - The present invention relates to a reliable method and device for backup of data from a first network to a second network. The method and device of the present invention can for example be used for a backup of voluminous data from the first to the second network via a link with a relatively small bandwidth. | 12-03-2015 |
