    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention provide a flexible approach to construct/create instances of cloud computing environments. Specifically, under embodiments of the present invention, an image of a virtual machine instance is created from the following components: image bits; content such as the liner notes, manual, metadata, etc.; end user information (so that the image can be customized for one or more specific end users); values provided to an installer; and cloud based values (e.g., IP address, hostname, etc.). By constructing the virtual machine using this approach, dynamic aspects of the image are managed external to the static binary representation of the image. This would include artifacts such as documentation, install scripts, binary files, etc. Additionally, user supplied data can be captured dynamically and copied to customize the image at the time of instance creation. Still yet, embodiments of the present invention provides system level configuration to construct the virtual machine.

    摘要: An embodiment of the invention includes a method for workload optimization in a network (e.g., cloud computing environment). Usage of resources in the network is monitored in order to maintain a metadata catalog of operating experiences of the resources. A request for a resource in the network is received; and, resources that are available in the network are identified. Units that are included in the resources are also identified. The metadata catalog is queried for operating experiences associated with the requested resource. The requested resource is provisioned by the host system based on the operating experiences associated with the resource. This includes assembling the units that are included in the requested resource and/or automatically allocating workloads of the computing modules based on the cataloging of the workloads in the metadata catalog. The metadata catalog is updated with an operating experience associated with the provisioning of the requested resource.

    摘要: A solution for managing a set of collaborative contacts is provided. Each collaborative contact includes one or more collaboration capabilities, each of which corresponds to a unique collaboration tool (e.g., voice over IP, instant messaging, email, and/or the like). Identifying text can be used to search the set of collaborative contacts and obtain a set of candidate contacts. An availability status for each collaboration capability of each candidate contact can be requested and a display can be generated that includes the set of candidate contacts. In one embodiment, the display can include an indication of the collaboration capabilities for one or more of the candidate contacts, and/or the availability status for one or more collaboration capabilities. A user can use the display to request a collaboration session between the user and one or more of the candidate contacts.

    摘要: A computer-implemented method of ambient ad hoc project management can include defining a project and associating a project decay function with the project, wherein the project decay function regulates a rate at which project health declines. Responsive to detecting a project event, one or more parameters of the project decay function can be determined from the project event. Project health can be calculated according to the project decay function using the parameter(s). An indication of the project health can be output.
