摘要： A method, information processing system, and system manage network entities. At least a portion of at least one information model (120) for a first managed entity (104) and at least a second managed entity (106) is accessed. The portion of the at least one information model (120) includes a set of capabilities (542) associated with the first managed entity (104) and second managed entity (106), respectively. A first set of capabilities (708) supported by the first managed entity (104) and a second set of capabilities (710) supported by the second managed entity (106) are identified based on the portion of the at least one information model (120). A set of common capabilities (712) from the first set of capabilities (708) and the second set of capabilities (710) that is supported by both of the first managed entity (104) and the second managed entity (106) is determined.

摘要： An identity provider (200) communicates (101) with a first logged-in user who seeks to receive particular streaming content at a first corresponding first user platform and who has also identified at least one other user with whom this user wishes to share the receiving of this content. The identity provider invites (102) the other user to share in the receiving of this content. Upon receiving (103) an acceptance of the invitation from the other user, the identity provider can treat this other user as a logged-in participating second user (i.e., a user who is now both logged-in (even if this user was not previously logged-in) and who wishes to accept the invitation and participate in viewing the streaming content selected by the first user) and automatically direct (104) these users to a content provide to facilitate the substantially simultaneous receipt of the streaming content at all of the corresponding user platforms.

摘要： Determine (101) a particular task to be autonomously facilitated in cooperation with another entity that also has autonomous task facilitation capabilities and then identify (102) particular supportable task facilitation objects as correspond to the particular task to be facilitated. Then identify (103) particular supportable candidate capabilities as correspond to at least some of the particular supportable task facilitation objects followed by then determining (104), for at least some of the particular supportable candidate capabilities, a corresponding relative preference metric to provide a metricized preferences-and-cap abilities matrix as corresponds to the particular task and this particular apparatus. This metricized preferences-and-capabilities matrix can then be used (105) to negotiate a particular selection of capabilities to be employed in cooperation with the another entity when facilitating this particular task.

摘要： A system, method, and information processing system for managing a configuration of a network device. A current state associated with at least one network device (104) is determined (206). A set of commands (118) available for the current state of the network device (104) is retrieved (208). A next state associated with a current command is determined (216) for each command in the set of commands (118). A transition from the current state to the next state is created (218, 222) in response to determining a next state associated with a current command. A transition is determined to have been created for each command in the set of commands (118). An extended finite state machine (120) is created that includes at least the current state, the next state, and the transition for each of the commands in the set of commands (118).

摘要： A system, method, and information processing system manage a network. At least one contract including one or more components is received at a network that uses a component based architecture. A first operation (422) in the set of operations associated with the contract (114) is mapped to a policy rule event (424) associated with at least one policy rule (116). A second operation (426) in the set of operations associated with the contract (114) is mapped to at least one policy rule condition (428) associated with the policy rule (116). A third operation (430) in the set of operations associated with the contract (116) is mapped to a policy rule action (432) associated with the policy rule (116). A fourth operation (440) in the set of operations associated with the contract (116) is mapped to a policy rule condition (442) associated with the other policy rule (420).

摘要： A method and information processing system manage policy elements in an information processing system. At least one policy element (110) from a plurality of policy elements stored in at least one policy repository (108) is retrieved. The plurality of policy elements includes at least one of a plurality of reusable policy rules (110), a plurality of reusable policy rule components (118, 120, 122), a plurality of reusable policy rule templates, and a plurality of and policy rule component templates. A new reusable policy element is created from at least one of the policy element (110) that has been retrieved and a default policy element. The new reusable policy element is stored in the at least one policy repository (108). A reusable policy element is queried using metadata (224) associated with the reusable policy element.

摘要： The disparate data and commands from are received from a managed resource (102) and have potentially different semantics. The disparate data and commands are processed according to rules received from an autonomic manager (112) to produce a single normalized view of this information. The actual state of the managed resource is determined from the normalized view of disparate data. The actual state of the managed resource (102) is compared to a desired state of the managed resource (102). When a match does not exist between the actual state and the desired state, a configuration adjustment to the managed resource (102) and/or another resource is determined to allow the actual state to be the same as the desired state. Then, the configuration adjustment is applied to the managed resource (102). When a match exists between the actual state and the desired state, maintenance functions associated with the managed resource (102) are performed.

摘要： While facilitating (101) a call session for a participating entity having at least one federation-based benefit, one then uses (102) that at least one federation-based benefit to facilitate communications mobility for the participating entity during the call session. Such a call session can comprise, for example and at least in part, a wireless call session. The federation-based benefit itself can be one provided by a content provider, a services provider, or the like.

摘要： A method, information processing system, and network select machine learning algorithms for managing autonomous operations of network elements. A state (404) of at least one problem (406) and at least one context associated with the problem are received as input. A machine learning algorithm (118) is selected (410) based on the problem and context of the problem that have been received. The machine learning algorithm (118) that has been selected is outputted to an autonomic controller.
