Techniques are described for effecting data aggregation in a network. Event notifications are received from a plurality of content sites on the network. Each event notification indicates occurrence of an event associated with a corresponding one of the content sites. Each event corresponds to a change to content associated with the corresponding content site. In response to each event notification, event metadata are generated. The event metadata include a time stamp for the event and change data corresponding to the change to the content. The event metadata are indexed in a plurality of databases with reference to a plurality of index metrics including the time stamp. The indexing of the event metadata for each event occurs within days, hours, or even minutes of receipt of the corresponding event notification thereby enabling retrieving of the changes to the content from the plurality of databases using any of the index metrics in near real time.

A machine-to-machine (M2M) gateway (GW) includes reachability, addressing, and repository (RAR) capability. The GW maintains a local mapping table and local device application repository, performs data aggregation, address/name translation, provides event reporting and establishes GW reachability and wake-up time. The GW supports requests from M2M applications or other capabilities within the GW, and from a network and application (N&A) domain RAR. The GW may include an M2M device and M2M gateway management (MDGM) capability that receives management requests for an M2M device and functions as a network proxy. The MDGM accepts and processes requests from the N&A domain on behalf of the M2M device and performs management functions of the M2M device on behalf of the N&A domain. The MDGM may request the N&A domain for permission to interact with the M2M device, initiate an interaction for device management tasks with the M2M device, and report to the N&A domain.

In a system and method for assessing and modifying fatigue, an input device receives current work-rest pattern and/or sleep data from an individual. A data aggregation and processing platform combines the current work-rest pattern and/or sleep data with previous data related to the individual to generate a fatigue assessment result, a diagnostic assessment result, and a corrective intervention result. At least one output display outputs the fatigue assessment result, diagnostic assessment result and corrective intervention result in a user-readable format to a user. The user uses this information to revise the work-rest pattern to reduce or control future fatigue risk.

A software module referred to as a content manager is provided for loading and maintaining a variety of data and associated metadata in a computer database. The data may be loaded in the form of individual documents that support business preparation or sales presentations where only one copy of each document is stored in the database. The metadata may be loaded in the form of attributes of the documents. A table of users may also be loaded in the database including a geographic or business division for each user. A role is assigned to the user, thereby granting access privileges to certain views of the database. An online user interface software module is also provided for remote access to the documents. Searches may be conducted by a variety of attributes. Documents may be associated into visual presentations or multiple presentations merged into one presentation. Three types of presentations private, shared, and global are supported. The user may also print, view, or download, email, post to website, or fax the documents and presentations.

A system and method is provided for event data collection and processing in a multimedia network. The server can include an event collection manager that receives messages containing event data from plural settop devices. Upon message receipt, the event collection manager accesses a database to identify a data aggregation group for the set top that sent the message and anonymously stores the event data in association with the data aggregation group. The data aggregation group can be associated with a policy that specifies anonymous storage of event data based on event type. For example, the data aggregation policy may specify storage of individual event types with personal identification information. Conversely, the aggregation policy may specify anonymous storage of individual event types anonymously excluding personal identification information. Aggregate reports can be generated from the stored event data by aggregation group.

A method for facilitating efficient automated acquisition of data from computer-based network data sources, such as Internet websites, by means of one or more data aggregation servers and a distributed network of one or more client computers (each operated by and/or on behalf of one or more end users), that does not trigger "trespass on chattels" protection, violate copyright protection of database compilations of non-copyright data or allow data sources to easily detect automated data acquisition. In a specific embodiment, each user runs a java applet within their Internet browser that frequently polls a server connected to a database storing the user's preferences. Based on the user's preferences and other data stored in the database, the server generates requests (each to be issued by the client machine to a particular website) and tells the user's applet to issue those requests. Response(s) (or a processed version of those responses) returned to the server may be used by the client machine and/or returned to the server where they may be parsed, stored in the database, made available to the user (and, potentially, other users) and may trigger the server to generate follow-on requests. This method has many potential uses, including, but certainly not limited to, the aggregation of real estate data from numerous websites for homebuyers.
