A method, a computer program product, and a computer system match players in a turn based game based on player activity. The method includes determining first characteristics of a first player activity of a first player. The characteristics are indicative of first active times that the first player historically took turns while playing the turn based game. The method includes identifying a second player having second characteristics of a second player activity. The second characteristics are indicative of second active times that the second player historically took turns while playing the turn based game. The second active times are compatible with the first active times. The method includes generating an indication for a game server hosting the turn based game to match the second player with the first player.

User matching based on active game time

Determines an optimal route for a given user to travel from the given user's current physical location to a secondary location so that the given user can perform an exercise routine at the secondary location. In order to determine the optimal route for the given user, at least some of the following factors are considered: the amount of available time the given user has between engagements in his or her daily schedule, the distance between the current location and the secondary location, and the weather.

Calendar aware activity planner

A method, computer system, and a computer program product for verified data transfer is provided. The present invention may include determining a first data type of a copy field including a copied data. The present invention may then include determining a second data type of a paste field intended for receiving the copied data. The present invention may further include, in response to identifying a mismatch between the first determined data type of the copy field including the copied data and the second determined data type of the paste field, preventing an input of the copied data into the paste field.

Verifying transfer of detected sensitive data

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to managing contact received by a user traveling to a geofence. Contact can be received from a contacting entity at a device of a user while the user is traveling to a geofence, the geofence being a virtual boundary defining a destination. A determination can be made whether the user enters the geofence. In response to a determination that the user enters the geofence, a follow-up action can be executed.

Managing contact while navigating

Method and system are provided for power socket management. The method carried out at a server may include receiving power data from a plurality of user devices and obtaining event information for an event location, including details of the user devices required for the event. The method may process the power data for the required user devices for an event by optimizing the use of power sockets at the event location. The method may notify the required user devices of the optimized socket usage for a user device.
