摘要:
The exemplary embodiments of the invention provide methods, computer program products and apparatus that describe techniques for improved selection of agreements between entities, such as between a service provider and another entity (e.g., a supplier or customer of the service provider). In one non-limiting, exemplary embodiment, a method includes: providing a workflow model for a plurality of sub-processes, wherein the plurality of sub-processes has a plurality of second values, wherein each sub-process of the plurality of sub-processes has a different second value of the plurality of second values corresponding to a property common to each sub-process of the plurality of sub-processes, wherein the workflow model is a workflow model of a process; determining a first probability distribution of a first value for the process based on a plurality of second probability distributions for the plurality of second values, wherein each second probability distribution of the plurality of second probability distributions is for a different second value of the plurality of second values; and selecting an agreement based on the determined first probability distribution of the first value, wherein the selected agreement is an agreement to be used between a first entity and a second entity.

In the context of screens, windows and like media, arrangements for automatically detecting when a recipient has entered or left a public setting so that privacy configuration changes can be automatically invoked. Also broadly contemplated herein is an arrangement for selectively displaying messages on the recipient's screen but deferring the messages from being visible on a remote hardware device or software display which is publicly visible. Furthermore, there is broadly contemplated herein a secure arrangement for revealing and responding to deferred messages. More generally, there is broadly contemplated herein a new approach to the provision of application notifications and to alarm control during a desktop screen sharing mode, based on the automatic detection of a screen sharing state and on notifying registered applications of the screen sharing in a unified, consistent manner.

A global service management configuration comprises a plurality of interrelated administrative objects. One or more of the plurality of interrelated administrative objects provide access control of one or more of a plurality of configuration items of a configuration management database by at least one of the plurality of interrelated administrative objects.

A system, method, and computer program product for provisioning software on at least one node in a plurality of computational nodes in a distributed information processing system are disclosed. The method includes accepting a plurality of requirements associated with a software product. The plurality of requirements is expanded into multiple sets of installation requirements. At least one set of installation requirements in the multiple sets of installation requirements is minimized to produce at least one minimized set of installation requirements. At least one installation topology is determined using Rough Set Theory for the software product based on the at least one minimized set of installation requirements. The at least one installation topology is compared to a set of capabilities included on at least one computational node to determine a respective set of missing resources for the at least one computational node.

Under the present invention, it is determined whether sufficient resources exist for deploying a platform dependent application on its specific “native” platform in a grid environment. If not, a platform dependent portion of the application is identified, and the application is split into the platform dependent portion and a platform independent portion. Thereafter, the platform dependent portion is deployed on its corresponding native platform, while the platform independent portion is deployed on another platform in the grid environment based on available resources. Interconnections between the two portions can then be automatically generated. This can include, for example, creating remote method invocation facade interfaces, creating remote method invocation-enabled facade classes, and building a remote method invocation server for the first platform.

Under the present invention, a stability and updateability (SUP) ratio for a grid computing environment is generated. Thereafter, a size of a set (e.g., at least one) of scale free graphs for the grid computing environment is estimated. Then, based on at least one predetermined parameter such as a quantity of nodes in the grid computing environment, the set of scale free graphs is actually generated. Based on the set of scale free graphs a set of perturbed scale free graphs is generated. In one example, this may be accomplished using a preferential rewiring technique. This process is repeated for each of the monitoring and discovery services, which will yield at least two sets of perturbed scale free graphs. Using these sets of graphs, a set of monitoring and discovery service (MDS) topology graphs for the grid computing environment will be generated and deployed for optimization.
