Abstract:
Data-driven rules are eliminated from an application, and replaced with goal-driven rules that formally and completely characterize high-level business concepts, while enabling the resulting goal-driven rules to be executed eagerly using a forward chaining rule engine in a way that preserves the data-driven behavior of the original rules. A computer-implemented method for executing business rules provides a unified rule that encapsulates a goal-oriented rule with triggering information selected from dependencies of the goal-oriented rule. The unified rule may be eagerly executed in response to changes in data specified by the dependencies, or lazily executed in response to a request for the value computed by the rule.
Abstract:
A hydration apparatus attachable to an individual for maintaining the individual's fluid balance. The hydration apparatus includes a body portion, an intake conduit, a fluid pump, a discharge conduit, and a distribution outlet. The body portion is disposable about a portion of the individual's body. The body portion has a bladder supported thereon. The bladder is adapted to receive a fluid. A first end of the intake conduit is connected to and in fluid communication with the fluid in the bladder. The fluid pump is connectable to a second end of the intake conduit so that the fluid pump is in fluid communication with the bladder. A first end of the discharge conduit is connectable to and is in fluid communication with the fluid pump. The distribution outlet is connectable to and in fluid communication with a second end of the discharge conduit.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for utilizing a database are disclosed. The methods and systems determine a key representative of a storage location of first RDF data in a NoSQL database. In addition, the methods and systems read the first RDF data in the NoSQL database using the key. The methods and systems also write second RDF data derived from the first RDF data into a second database stored in memory. The methods and systems may also modify the second RDF data, and write third RDF data derived from the modified second RDF data into the NoSQL database.

Abstract:
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for automated non-sound operations by interactive voice response commands. In use, a command from an interactive voice response application is received. Additionally, a non-sound operation requested to be performed via the command is identified. Further, the identified non-sound operation is automatically performed.
