Correlating network activity through visualizing network data and with identifying entities associated with targeted activities and correlating therewith other activities from those entities. Network traffic is classified into a number of conceptual views of network traffic, each instantiating view objects that are a representation of network traffic that satisfies a set of conditions. Configuration files define a hierarchy, the structure of the hierarchy, and its makeup. Any point on the hierarchy can be accessed using its Graphical Request Language (GRL) designation. Further GRL designations are used to label views associated with a point. A plurality of view objects are linked to corresponding view object databases. Define new view objects using one or more GRL does correlation and combining using logical operators. Generate a new list of addresses from the GRL address lists and place all current and subsequent traffic for those machines in the new view object.

Methods and systems capable of determining which subset of a set of logical expressions are true with relatively few evaluations of the primitives that, together with any standard logical connectives, make up the logical expressions. A plurality of directed acyclic graphs, each graph including at least one root node, at least one leaf node, and at least one non-leaf node associated with a leaf node. Each node is associated with a, possibly empty, subset of presumed to be true logical expressions. Each non-leaf node is associated with one of the primitives mentioned in any of the logical expressions. Edges are defined between two of the nodes, each edge being associated with a possible value, or range of possible values, of the primitive associated with the node at the tail of the edge. Paths are defined through each of the directed acyclic graphs from a root node to a leaf node by recursively following each edge corresponding to the current value of the primitive at a selected non-leaf node. Lastly, subsets of logical expressions associated with the nodes on the defined paths are collated to yield a subset of logical expressions that are true.

A method and system which allow the addition of context into a search involves the use of state monitors in the computing environment. The state monitors record information such as the installed hardware, software, user preferences, and operating modes.

For storing gesture definitions and evaluating expressions that reference the gesture definitions, an expression evaluation engine evaluates the expressions to determine whether movements of a user satisfy the expressions. The expression evaluation engine receives expressions in user or application requests, or the expression evaluation engine may automatically evaluate the expressions when a gesture recognition system receives updated information about tracked body parts of the user. An expression includes a logical operator that relates different conditions to each other, and the different conditions may reference different gestures or other criteria that are based on the tracked body parts of the user. The expression is satisfied when the logical operator is satisfied. If an expression is satisfied, the expression evaluation engine triggers an action associated with a corresponding gesture definition. An example gesture may trigger display and navigation of a pie menu.
