摘要:
A solution for managing a computer infrastructure is provided. In particular, the solution can generate a set of tentative recovery segments for the computer infrastructure based on a related resource graph and a set of partition rules. The related resource graph can be generated based on a managed resource graph, which includes resource type information for each node in the managed resource graph. The set of tentative recovery segments can be used to manage the computer infrastructure and/or a set of recovery segments, which includes recovery characteristic(s) for each segment can be generated based on the set of tentative recovery segments and a set of recovery segment templates. In any event, the invention provides a solution that fully and/or partially automates the identification of recovery segments within a computer infrastructure, thereby enabling a more effective management of the computer infrastructure.

One embodiment of the present method and apparatus for re-establishing anonymous data transfers between a first endpoint and a second endpoint in a network includes receiving, from a first node, the identity of a second node connected to the first node, where at least the first node is a neighbor node. A third node (a neighbor node) is then selected, and instructed to connect to the second node in order to establish a link for the path. In this manner, the first endpoint and the second endpoint remain unknown at least to each other (e.g., where “unknown” means that neither endpoint knows any identifying information, such as network address, about the other endpoint), and likely to all other nodes in the path as well. In another embodiment, a failure is detected at a neighbor node, where the neighbor node is part of an original path between the first endpoint and the second endpoint. The neighbor node's repair server is contacted for a repair node associated with the neighbor node, and a connection to the repair node is made such that the path is established in a manner that maintains anonymity of the first endpoint and the second endpoint relative to each other.

One embodiment of the present method and apparatus for anonymous data transfers comprises connecting first and second network endpoints to at least one relay node and transferring data from the first endpoint to the second endpoint through the at least one relay node such that the first and second endpoints are not aware of each other's identities, e.g., are not aware of an ultimate source or destination of transferred data. In further embodiments, an information field specifying a number of times that a data transfer message (e.g., a request, response or get message) should be forwarded is altered so that no receiving node can inferentially identify an originating node.

An illustrative embodiment includes a method for use with a computing system comprising a first computer coupled to one or more additional computers, wherein each of the one or more additional computers manages a respective set of one or more virtualized computing resources, and wherein the first computer manages the one or more additional computers. The method includes the steps of determining an assignment of at least one application to at least one of: (i) the first computer; and (ii) at least one of the one or more additional computers; and responsive to a detected condition, changing the assignment of the at least one application to the at least one of: (i) the first computer; and (ii) the at least one of the one or more additional computers.

A method of generating analytics to provide an analysis of data from distinct data domains includes collecting sensor data from at least two distinct data domains, deriving parameters from the collected data, wherein at least one of the parameters is a first domain parameter derived from one of the data domains and at least another one of the parameters is a second domain parameter derived from the other data domain, providing a data model that enables a user to specify at least one of the first parameters and at least one of the second domain parameters and generate at least one rule based on the selected parameters, and generating analytics that analyze the collected data against the rules to determinate whether the rules have been satisfied and provide results of the analysis to a user of the analytics.

Techniques for dynamically managing a sleep state of a virtual machine are provided. The techniques include detecting idleness of a virtual machine, putting the idle virtual machine into a sleep state, implementing a virtual machine surrogate, wherein the virtual machine surrogate listens to network traffic, enabling the virtual machine to handle network traffic that is capable of being handled by the virtual machine, and enabling the virtual machine to queue network traffic and wake-up the virtual machine in the sleep state for network traffic that the virtual machine surrogate is incapable of handling.

A system and method for monitoring liveliness includes a management device which has an application layer where applications are executed. A connection monitor is located other than on the application layer, and the connection monitor is configured to receive requests from clients and deliver the requests to components on the application layer. The components include a generic application monitor which responds to liveliness monitor requests from the clients for all applications monitored, and one or more applications which response to requests to that application.

A method is disclosed that includes rendering a portion of a collaborative data stream at a first application running in a first virtual machine on a physical server. The method also includes the first application sharing the rendered portion of the collaborative data stream with a multiplicity of second applications running in second virtual machines on the physical server. Apparatus and program products are also disclosed.
摘要:
Access is obtained to call data records (or other data) for a plurality of mobile telephony users. The call data records (or other data) include location-time sequences. For each of the mobile telephony users, corresponding ones of the location-time sequences are segmented into trips; a home-work-school classification model is used to determine a home location and a work-school location, based on the trips; and a trip purpose classification model is used to assign each of the trips a purpose label, based at least on comparing at least one of a start location and an end location for each one of the trips to at least one of the home location and the work-school location determined using the home-work-school classification model. The trips are aggregated into purpose based origin-destination categories based at least on the purpose labels, time ranges of the location-time sequences, and the start and end locations.
