摘要:
A system and method of decreasing server loads and, more particularly, to decrease server load by automatically determining subgroups based on object interactions and computational expenditures. The system includes a plurality of servers; a subgroup optimization module configured to segment a plurality of objects into optimal subgroups; and a server transfer module configured to apportion one or more of the optimal subgroups between the plurality of servers based on a load of each of the plurality of servers. The method includes determining a relationship amongst a plurality of objects; segmenting the objects into optimized subgroups based on the relationships; and apportioning the optimized subgroups amongst a plurality of servers based on server load.

An audio/video recording method and system is provided. The method includes receiving by a processor of an audio/video recording device, a request for recording broadcast audio/video data. The processor analyzes audio/video presentation capabilities for audio/video presentation devices and formats of a first group of broadcast audio/video files associated with the broadcast audio/video data. Results of the analyses are compared and in response a first audio/video file is selected from the first group of broadcast audio/video files. The first audio/video file includes a first format requiring a first amount of storage space within a storage device of the audio/video recording device. The first format is associated with the audio/video presentation capabilities of a first audio/video presentation device and the first audio/video file is recorded.

A method for improving replication persistence in a caching appliance structure can begin when a primary catalog service receives a command to instantiate a data partition. The primary catalog service can manage a collective of caching appliances in a networked computing environment. The data partition can include a primary shard and at least one replica shard. The primary shard of the data partition can be stored within a memory space of a first caching appliance. The at least one replica shard of the data partition can be stored within a non-volatile storage space of a second caching appliance. The first and the second caching appliances can be separate physical devices. The memory space of the second caching appliance that could have been used to store the at least one replica shard can be available for storing primary shards for other data partitions, increasing the capacity of the collective.

A proximity threshold of an avatar is defined with respect to proximity to an artifact located within a virtual universe domain. Activity by the avatar within the virtual universe domain is tracked, with activity data generated from the tracking. The activity data is analyzed to determine proximity of the avatar to the artifact within the proximity threshold, and a report is generated from the analyzing, the report noting a determined proximity of the avatar to the artifact within the proximity threshold. In one aspect, the report is provided to a supervisory entity.

A computer-implemented proxy digital video recording system and method, including a processor and memory. The memory including program instructions that are executable by the processor to intercept a request to record a video program, the request triggered by a requesting user and having a request format. The proxy digital video recording system and method determines if a target digital video recorder can understand a format of the request, and translates the request into an intelligible format if the target digital video recorder cannot understand the request format.

Embodiments of the present invention provide an approach for an enhanced pub/sub environment whereby a peer group of publishers is defined and can collaborate to determine when to cache data being sent to a common broker or brokers. Specifically, in a typical embodiment, configuration data or the like will be read to define a peer group among the publisher systems in the pub/sub messaging environment. Once such a group has been identified, communication therebetween will be established. Once cacheable data has been identified, a unique identifier/set of cache keys will be generated corresponding thereto and associated with the set of data. A message comprising the set of data and corresponding unique identifier will then be sent to a broker system (e.g., from the publisher system(s)), which will store (or have stored) the set of data in a cache, and pass the underlying message along to applicable subscriber system(s).

Embodiments of the present invention provide an approach for a broker-assisted, publisher side cache that can be utilized to reduce a volume of data (e.g., network traffic) delivered between a publisher and broker in a publication/subscription (pub/sub) environment. Specifically, in a typical embodiment, when a message is received on a broker system from a publisher system, the broker system analyzes the message for potentially repetitive data. Such data can be determined from historical messages (e.g., determining that a certain set of data appeared in multiple messages and is thus flagged in a database or the like), a set of rules (e.g., if data set “Y” appears, flag it as potentially repetitive), etc. Regardless, once such a set of data has been identified, a unique identifier/key corresponding thereto will be sent back to the publisher system and the set of data will be stored in a (data) cache. Upon receipt, the publisher system will cache/store the unique identifier in a (key) cache. Then, when the publisher system generates a future message that would contain the same set of data, the publisher system will substitute the unique identifier (as retrieved from the key cache) for the set of data to yield an abbreviated/truncated message. The abbreviated message would be sent to the broker system, which would: analyze the message; locate the unique identifier; retrieve the corresponding set of data from the (data) cache; replace the unique identifier with the set of data to yield a completed message; and then send the completed message to relevant subscriber system(s).

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for automated data updating of notices in a calendaring and scheduling (C&S) system. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for automated data updating of notices in a C&S system can be provided. The method can include composing a C&S document in a C&S system executing in memory by at least one processor of a computer. The method further can include noticing different users addressed for the C&S document and adding to the C&S document a reference to variable data stored separately from the C&S document. The method yet further can include detecting a change in the variable data. Finally, the method can include transmitting notice to the different users of the change in variable data. In one aspect of the embodiment, transmitting notice to the different users of the change in variable data can include flagging the C&S document as having changed.

A computer system, computer program product, and method of sharing and creating social network reviews of selected programs that may be viewed and shared over a social network. If a user agrees with a social network review already present for a selected program, the categorization and editing of inappropriate content of the selected program may be applied to the same program for that user. If a user disagrees with a social network review of a selected program already present, the user may review the selected program and edit any inappropriate content as desired and submit the review to the social network.

The present invention relates to relates to the management of virtual universe item returns. A method for in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention includes: initiating a return of a item by a user in a virtual universe; granting control of the return of the item to a return agency, the return agency submitting a return request on behalf of the user to a vendor associated with the item; upon approval of the return request by the vendor, sending instructions to the user to destroy the item; and upon confirmation of the destruction of the item by the user, crediting the user for the return.
