    Abstract: A method and system for obscured contact sharing is provided. In an embodiment, the method includes receiving at a first user device a request from a second user device to provide an obscured contact, wherein the obscured contact includes a plurality of information elements. The first user device receives from the second user device the obscured contact and data about obscuring at least one of the information elements of the obscured contact. Based on the data, an operating system of the first user device obscures the at least one information element from presentation by the first user device to a user while at the same time being able to use the obscured information element for a predetermined time. The operating system of the first user device removes the at least one information element from contact information storage of the first user device in response to detection of a predetermined time indicated by the second user device or a delete command from the second user device.

    Abstract: A computer creates a prioritization list of a set of project functions, wherein each project function is associated with a priority level and an amount of resources. The computer detects a request, wherein the request includes a request to do one or more of alter one or more project functions of the set of project functions, add one or more project functions to the set of project functions, and remove one or more project functions from the set of project functions. The computer determines whether to allow the request based on at least on a comparison to the prioritization list.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for guided vehicle evaluation includes executing on a computer processor the step of receiving a vehicle identification number (VIN) for a vehicle and analyzing maintenance items and repair items for the vehicle from anonymized vehicle data identified by the VIN which identifies deviations from normal maintenance items and repair items identified by a decoded VIN. The anonymized vehicle data includes repair items and maintenance items performed on the vehicle and a vehicle mileage for each repair item and for each maintenance item. Expected service needs for the vehicle are computed based on the identified deviations from normal of maintenance items and repair items, and the expected service needs for the vehicle are displayed.

    Abstract: A method and system for analyzing captured vehicle parts alteration data and correlating with vehicle service procedures to identify service completion and anomalies is disclosed. The method and system includes loading captured vehicle parts alteration data for a particular vehicle from a vehicle history module, the vehicle parts alteration data being captured by one or more sensors and stored in the vehicle history module, identifying predefined service procedure events and corresponding procedural steps for the particular vehicle, analyzing the captured vehicle parts alteration data for one or more events that match the predefined service procedure events; and for each service procedure event matched, automatically identifying anomalies by one or more of: identify procedural steps that have been completed and procedural steps that have not been completed and identifying procedural steps that were done that are not in one of the predefined service procedure events.

    Abstract: A method and associated system. In response to a request to deploy a virtual machine, a virtual machine resource usage pattern having attributes matching a subset of attributes in than ordered sequence of attributes is selected from at least one virtual machine resource usage pattern stored in a virtual machine resource usage pattern library, based on an ordering of the attributes in the ordered sequence of attributes, wherein the virtual machine resource usage pattern library stores usage patterns for virtual machines previously deployed. A node on which the virtual machine is to be deployed is selected, based on the selected virtual machine resource usage pattern, and additionally based on either available resources of the plurality of nodes or predicted runtime resource requirements of the virtual machine to be deployed. The virtual machine is configured for being deployed on the selected node. The virtual machine is deployed on the selected node.

A node on which the virtual machine is to be deployed is selected, based on the selected virtual machine resource usage pattern and predicted runtime resource requirements of the virtual machine to be deployed based on historical running data of virtual machines. The virtual machine is configured for being deployed on the selected node. The virtual machine is deployed on the selected node.
