Event Clustering System Using Reference Tool Signalizer
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current systems for managing and organizing vast amounts of digital information, such as emails and network traffic, face challenges in effective clustering and retrieval due to lack of automation, leading to inefficiencies and difficulties in identifying actionable problems in infrastructure, and are vulnerable to spam and data loss.
Innovation Solution
An event clustering system with a reference tool signalizer that decomposes events, uses filters and algorithms to identify common characteristics, and applies physical changes to infrastructure based on analyzed data, employing engines for message processing and data analysis.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If manual organization of messages/events into folders is used, then information can be stored in topic-based folders, but it becomes impractical to handle massive amounts of web-based information and difficult to locate information of interest
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically organizes messages and events into topic-based folders without requiring manual user intervention. The automated classification engine analyzes incoming information and assigns it to appropriate folders based on detected topics, enabling the system to serve itself in the information organization task.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the manual mechanical process of sorting messages into folders with an automated computational system. The automated classification engine uses text analysis and topic detection algorithms to substitute human manual sorting operations, dramatically improving processing efficiency for massive information volumes.
2Ease of operation
If web directories with hierarchical organization are created, then information retrieval is improved, but the process of creating directories and deciding placement is not automated and becomes impractical for massive amounts of information
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically creates and maintains the hierarchical directory structure without human intervention. The classification engine autonomously determines the appropriate placement of each message or event by analyzing its content and matching it with existing topics or creating new topics as needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary classification and organization of information as it arrives, rather than requiring subsequent manual sorting. The automated engine pre-assigns messages to appropriate folders based on topic analysis, ensuring information is ready for retrieval before the user needs it.
3Ease of operation
If traditional folder-based systems are used for email management, then messages can be sorted into folders, but tasks are not visible to the user and can be easily neglected, and any given message can only be in one folder at a time
Solution Approach 1:
The system adds a temporal dimension to folder organization by implementing version control and history tracking. Messages can maintain their original folder assignments while creating temporal copies or references in task-related folders, allowing the same message to serve multiple activities across different time periods without losing its original context.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates copies or references of messages in multiple folders simultaneously, allowing a single message to be associated with multiple topics or tasks. This copying mechanism enables messages to participate in multiple activities while the original remains intact in its primary classification location.
Data Source
AI summary
A system is provided for clustering events. A first engine is configured to receive message data from managed infrastructure that includes managed infrastructure physical hardware that supports the flow and processing of information. A second engine determines common characteristics of events and produces dusters of events relating to the failure of errors in the managed infrastructure. Membership in a cluster indicates a common factor of the events that is a failure or an actionable problem in the physical hardware managed infrastructure directed to supporting the flow and processing of information. One or more situations is created that is a collection of one or more events or alerts representative of the actionable problem in the managed infrastructure. In response to the production of the clusters one or more physical changes is made to at least a portion of the managed infrastructure hardware.
