A method and system for modeling of object-oriented database structures, translation to relational database structures, and dynamic searches thereon. The user may create, edit and manipulate a user's object database (dynamically translated into a set of relational database structures), to create, edit and manipulate objects for that object database (dynamically translated into data for those relational database structures), and to create, edit and manipulate queries to be applied to that object database (dynamically translated into queries to be applied to those relational database structures). A meta-model of the user's object database, which is itself an object database, and which has itself been translated into a set of relational database structures for manipulation by a relational database engine. The meta-model comprises a set of classes, objects, and relationships between classes which model the classes and relationships between classes of the system. Each of these classes may comprise a set of searchable properties, and each of these relationships may comprise an inheritance relationship (between a base class and a derived class) or a data-model relationship (such as a one-to-one, one-to-many, or many-to-many relationship). The data model of the user's object database is modeled by actual objects in the meta-model, and editing or manipulating the user's object database is modeled by creating, modifying, or deleting objects in the meta-model. The meta-model also models itself, in the same manner as it models the user's object database, and may be manipulated in the same manner as the user's object database.

A method and apparatus for dynamically modifying search results “on the fly” based on the behavior of the user currently conducting a search. In one embodiment, data regarding user behavior is gathered from virtually any activity, including clicks on links, dwell times, downloads, transactions and cursor movements. Subordinate keywords are generated to reflect the intent of the user as inferred from the user's behavior. Subordinate keywords, as opposed to traditional primary keywords, are keywords that are identified as important to the search, but are not necessarily essential for a matched document. They are automatically generated by the system from a variety of places, such as documents clicked on by the user as well as documents that are skipped. The system uses the subordinate keywords to dynamically re-rank matched documents and advertisements to best reflect the inferred intent of the user in order to continuously provide the most relevant results.

A system may receive one or more terms of a search query. The system may automatically identify prior search queries that include the one or more terms of the search query from a history of prior search queries. The system may automatically identify possible spelling corrected search queries based on the one or more terms of the search queries. The system may automatically receive remote server-based query completion suggestions including the one or more terms of the search query. The system may present query refinement options, the query refinement box being populated with the prior search queries as suggested queries for possible selection by a user, the identified possible spelling corrected search queries, and the received query completion suggestions.

A wavelength division multiplexed optical network has a restoration process to re-route one or more of the wavelengths, by dynamically determining possible restoration routes, and re-routing each wavelength along a chosen one of the possible restoration routes. A distributed dynamic search for restoration routes down to the optical layer, for wavelengths, gives faster and more scalable restoration than reconfiguring routing tables and enables much better utilisation of bandwidth than using predetermined restoration paths.

An apparatus, method, and system are directed to managing a multi-modal communication over a network. In one embodiment, the method, apparatus, and system employ an instant messaging client to perform actions. The actions may include receiving contact information associated with a plurality of communication mediums. The contact information includes contact names and addresses that are integrated into a unified contact store. When a user inputs a character for use in initiating a communication, a dynamic search is performed on the unified contact store. The results of the search may be repeatedly updated based on additional input characters. The results display contact names and addresses, where either the contact name or address includes the input character(s). The user may then select an address, and automatically initiate a communication with a contact name associated with the selected address over a communication medium associated with the address.

A dynamic search interface presents a context which changes in response to user interaction. When the user engages the interface, it responds dynamically to display relevant information and controls. When the user disengages the interface, it returns to a simpler form.

The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for providing dynamic search results based upon historical data through the use of one or more widgets. The method of the present invention comprises receiving a request for content from a client and generating one or more widgets for providing search result content. A display profile is applied to the one or more widgets and the one or more widgets are combined with static search results to form a search result page that is provided to a requesting client.

A visual method for enhancing search result navigation, comprising: obtaining a first search result from a search engine; clustering the first search result to get clustering information; calculating the correlations between the clustering information and the ranked list of the first search result, and performing visualization processing on the clustering information; and displaying the visual cluster hierarchy and the ranked list of the first search result in a joint manner based on the correlations. When a cluster is selected, further searching is performed and the search result is clustered again. Using the present invention, through combining a traditional ranked list of search results and the visual cluster hierarchy of these search results to display them in a joint manner, a convenient way is provided for the web user to find the potential correlations between the visual cluster hierarchy and the ranked list of the search results. Besides, through dynamically searching and clustering more search results again, the web user may get more detailed and more accurate search results easily.

Methods, techniques, and systems for gathering social media content are provided. Some embodiments provide a Social Intelligence System (“SIS”) configured to provide dynamic search capability of a content source by using a proxy server system as an intermediary between the SIS and the content source. The SIS may then dynamically determine a rate at which it searches for content based on a rate of change or predicted change of a particular content source. Dynamically determining a rate allows the SIS to track a particular topic or series of topics over time, while only searching for content on the topic at the most optimal time periods to reduce overall cost.

The invention relates to an antenna tracking system used for a mobile satellite communication system. The antenna tracking system is based on combination of multiple sensors for performing posture measurement, and fusion and estimation are performed on the combination of magnetic strength information, acceleration information and angular speed information. The method of three-axis stabilization plus dynamic search is adopted, and an inner ring for combined posture measurement compensation is used for realizing the three-axis stabilization, so as to prevent the posture of a carrier from being affected by the environment; and a strength signal output by a digital receiver is introduced into a controller as a feedback signal for constituting an outer ring for tracking a level signal, so that the way of double-ring nestification dynamic search of the maximum point in the signal can be formed for performing error compensation. The specific algorithm is as follows: utilizing a carrier rotation angular speed component measured by a three-axis gyroscope to perform Kalman filtering on a measured gravitational acceleration component and a geomagnetism induction density component, removing interferences caused by accelerated motion and an external magnetic field, further getting a true value, and finally utilizing the value to perform the posture resolution.
