Abstract

Techniques for detecting conditions at a geographic location are described. The techniques receive plural information feeds, aggregate the information according commonality of information, and analyze information from the plural information feeds according to rules. Upon detection of a rule being triggered for a particular user, the techniques produce or spawn an instruction thread that is controlled or scheduled by an instruction thread scheduler and which filters the received information from the data feeds according to the triggered rule, (and user, user location) and produce an instruction thread that continually analyzes the filtered information from the data feeds to produce operational decisions based on the information and data feeds, detect during the continual analysis changes in risk of a threat according to the triggered rule, produce response messages based on the determined change, and send the generated response messages as an alert to a system/device of a user.

Claims

1. A system comprises:

a computing system, comprising one or more processors, memory and a computer readable hardware storage device storing a computer program product for detecting conditions at geographic locations, the computer program product comprising instructions to configure the computing system to;

receive a plural information feeds;

aggregate the information according commonality of information;

analyze information from the plural information feeds according to rules, upon detection of a rule being triggered for a particular user,

produce an instruction thread that filters the received information from the data feeds according to the triggered rule;

produce an instruction thread that continually analyzes the filtered information from the data feeds to produce operational decisions based on the information and data feeds; and

detect during the continual analysis changes in risk of a threat according to the triggered rule.

2. The system of claim 1 wherein the computing system is further configured to:

collect information feeds from plural sources; and

execute one or more rules to continually analyze the information collected from the information feeds.

3. The system of claim 1 wherein the computing system further includes a thread scheduler that schedules execution of the instruction thread that filters the received information and the instruction thread that analyzes the filtered received information, and further comprises:

a query thread that sends queries to information sources for information pertaining to the rule being evaluated for the user.

4. The system of claim 1 wherein the computing system is further configured to:

detect changes in the information feed data;

compare detected changes to an initial analysis;

evaluate the changes with respect to the triggered rule; and

generate a list of most probable decisions according to triggered rule.

5. The system of claim 1 wherein the computing system is further configured to:

send a message to a user device, which includes embedded executable instructions to access an external system.

6. The system of claim 5 wherein the embedded executable instructions are a link to the external system that is a travel planning system.

7. The system of claim 1 wherein the instructions to produce response messages further comprise instructions to embed directive response instructions;

and

send the generated response messages to a user device.

8. The system of claim 1 wherein a request to determine conditions at a location is received to initiate processing.

9. The system of claim 1 wherein the system is further configured to:

produce response messages based on the determined change; and

send the generated response messages as an alert to a system/device of a user.

10. The system of claim 1 wherein the rule is a formal rule that is triggered by a value exceeding a preset threshold value.

11. A computer program product tangibly stored on a computer readable hardware storage device, the computer program product for detecting conditions at a geographic location, the computer program product comprising instructions to cause a processor to:

receive a plural information feeds;

aggregate the information feeds according commonality of information;

analyze information from the plural information feeds according to rules, upon detection of a rule being triggered for a particular user,

produce an instruction thread that filters the received information from the data feeds according to the triggered rule;

produce an instruction thread that continually analyzes the filtered information from the data feeds to produce operational decisions based on the information and data feeds;

detect during the continual analysis changes in risk of a threat according to the triggered rule;

produce response messages based on the determined change; and

send the generated response messages as an alert to a system/device of a user.

12. The computer program product of claim 11 further comprising instructions to:

collect information feeds from plural sources; and

execute one or more rules to continually analyze the information collected from the information feeds.

13. The computer program product of claim 11 wherein the sensor data is collected continuously.

14. The computer program product of claim 11 wherein the instruction to execute include instructions to:

detect changes in the information feed data;

compare detected changes to an initial analysis;

evaluate the changes with respect to the triggered rule;

generate a list of most probable decisions according to triggered rule; and

produce messages having embedded executable instructions to access an external system as a link to the external system that is a travel planning system.

15. A method comprises:

receiving by one or more computing systems a plural information feeds;

aggregating by the computing system the information according commonality of information;

analyzing by the one or more computing systems the information from the plural information feeds according to rules, upon detection of a rule being triggered for a particular user,

producing by the one or more computing systems an instruction thread that filters the received information from the data feeds according to the triggered rule;

producing by the one or more computing systems an instruction thread that continually analyzes the filtered information from the data feeds to produce operational decisions based on the information and data feeds; and

detecting by the one or more computing systems during the continual analysis changes in risk of a threat according to the triggered rule.

16. The method of claim 15 further comprising:

detecting by the one or more computing systems changes in the information feed data;

comparing by the one or more computing systems detected changes to an initial analysis;

evaluating by the one or more computing systems the changes with respect to the triggered rule;

generating by the one or more computing systems a list of most probable decisions according to triggered rule; and

producing by the one or more computing systems messages having embedded executable instructions to access an external system as a link to the external system that is a travel planning system.
