An automated transaction integrity monitoring system operative to monitor electronic transactions of an enterprise and detect exceptions indicating noncompliance with enterprise policies. The system allows establishment, codification, and maintenance of enterprise policies, monitors electronic transactions of the enterprise from various and possibly heterogeneous data sources, detects exceptions to established policies, reports such exceptions to authorized users such as managers and auditors, and / or provides a case management system for tracking such exceptions and their underlying transactions. The invention specifically relates to systems and methods for transforming or mapping information from a data source relating to a transactional entity associated with an enterprise into a form for processing by a transaction analysis engine operative upon data expressed in a predetermined ontology. The ontology expresses data items in a manner common across plural heterogeneous databases. The enterprise policies are expressed in terms of the ontology.

A graphics subsystem having a programmable shader controllable by both state-based control information, such as DirectX 8 control information, and program instructions, such as DirectX 9 shader program instructions. The programmable shader translates state-based control information received from a host computer into native control information. The programmable shader translates into native control information program instructions fetched from memory locations identified by a received memory reference and program instructions received from the graphics subsystem. Native control information configures computation units of the programmable shader. The programmable shader optimizes the generated native control information by combining certain operations. The graphics subsystem detects memory references sent from the host computer and pre-fetches program instructions for transmission to the programmable shader. Native control information from multiple control sources is concurrently used in the programmable shader.

The present invention relates to a subscription modeling system and methodology. A query processor receives subscription query and subscriber information and transforms the query and subscriber information into data. An index component propagates at least one database with the transformed data; and a matching component that associates the transformed data with event data to generate a database of notification data that can be delivered to subscribers. The invention provides for abstracting subscription and subscriber information (as well as event information if desired) to high-level classes (e.g., data fields)—thus the invention provides for modeling such notification related information as data. Subscription applications can thus be developed at high levels wherein complex subscription queries and subscriber information can be defined as data fields for example. Databases in accordance with the data fields can be propagated with subscription / subscriber specific information. The present invention takes advantages of the processing power associated with database engines (e.g., SQL server) to generate notifications via performing a join operation on the databases (e.g., subscription database(s), subscriber database(s) and event database(s)). Accordingly, notifications are generated en masse as compared to per subscription per subscriber. Thus the present invention provides for a highly scalable and efficient notification system.

Converting a document in a small device format and merging the converted document with an original version of the document in an office productivity format. A document on a server may be converted to a small device format. Some information may be dropped from the document during conversion. The converted document may be transferred to a small device for editing. The edited document may be transferred back to the server for synchronization with the original document. After transferal, the edited document may be converted back to the original document format on the server and analyzed to determine differences between the edited document and the original document. The determined differences may be applied to the original document to merge the small device document with the original document. Information that was lost during the original conversion of the document may be restored to the merged document during the conversion / merge process.

A method is provided for evaluating identity of an object, the method including: converting feature information representing the object to a plurality of mathematically defined components; grouping the components into multiple modalities; producing respective first prediction information for each respective modality wherein the respective prediction information for each respective modality is based upon respective components grouped into that respective modality; and producing second prediction information based upon the respective first prediction information produced for the multiple respective modalities.
