System, method and computer program product for demand modeling and prediction in retail categories. The method uses time-series data comprising of unit prices and unit sales for a designated choice set of related products, with the time-series data obtained over a given sequence of sales reporting periods, and over a collection of stores in a market geography. Other relevant data sets from participating retail entities that include additional product attribute data such as market and consumer factors that affect retail demand are further used. A demand model for improved accuracy is achieved by individual sub-modeling method steps of: estimating a model for price movements and price dynamics from the time series data of unit-prices in the aggregated sales data; estimating a model for market share of each product in the retail category using the aggregated sales data and integrated additional product attribute data; and, estimating generating a model for an overall market demand in the retail category from the aggregated sales data.

According to one embodiment, a binary code modification system includes a code modifier configured to access a binary software code. The code modifier generates a modified software code by inserting one or more executable instructions into the binary software code. The one or more executable instructions is operable to expose at least a portion of the binary software code as a web service interface.

Systems and methods are provided for intrusion detection. The systems and methods may include receiving transaction information related to one or more current transactions between a client entity and a resource server, accessing a database storing a plurality of transaction groups, analyzing the received transaction information with respect to information related to at least one of the plurality of transaction groups, and based on said analyzing, determining a possibility of an occurrence of an intrusion act at the resource server. The transaction groups may be formed based on a plurality of past transactions between a plurality of client entities and the resource server. Identity information of a user associated with the one or more current transactions may also be received along with the transaction information. The user may be associated with at least one of the plurality of transaction groups.

The present invention describes a method and system for joint modeling of a mean and dispersion of data. A computing system derives a loss function taking into account distributional requirements over the data. The computing system represents separate regression functions for the mean and the dispersion as stagewise expansion forms. At this time, the stagewise expansion forms include undetermined scalar coefficients and undetermined basis functions. Then, the computing system chooses the basis functions that maximally correlate with a corresponding steepest-descent gradient direction of the loss function. The computing system obtains the scalar coefficients based on a single step of Newton iteration. The computing system completes the regression functions based on the chosen basis functions and obtained scalar coefficients.

The invention pertains to a system and method for a set of middleware components for supporting the execution of computational applications on high-performance computing platform. A specific embodiment of this invention was used to deploy a financial risk application on Blue Gene/L parallel supercomputer. The invention is relevant to any application where the input and output data are stored in external sources, such as SQL databases, where the automatic pre-staging and post-staging of the data between the external data sources and the computational platform is desirable. This middleware provides a number of core features to support these applications including for example, an automated data extraction and staging gateway, a standardized high-level job specification schema, a well-defined web services (SOAP) API for interoperability with other applications, and a secure HTML/JSP web-based interface suitable for non-expert and non-privileged users.

An apparatus hosting a multi-tenant software-as-a-service (SaaS) system maximizes resource sharing capability of the SaaS system. The apparatus receives service requests from multiple users belonging to different tenants of the multi-tenant SaaS system. The apparatus partitions the resources in the SaaS system into different resource groups. Each resource group handles a category of the service requests. The apparatus estimates costs of the service requests of the users. The apparatus dispatches service requests to resource groups according to the estimated costs, whereby the resources are shared, among the users, without impacting each other.
