A processor-implemented method, system, and/or computer program product determines a testing regime for program code created in a development system. A risk factor of a user of the development system is calculated based on information relating to previous activities of the user. The calculated risk factor, which describes a likelihood of the user damaging the development system, is used to determine a testing regime for testing program code.

Testing program code created in a development system

A server receives a first request for website access from an application on a device. The server determines the website is unavailable. The server identifies the status resource, wherein the status resource provides in-band updates on an availability of the website. The server provides status resource information to the device via the application on the device which communicated the first request. The server receives a second request for website access from the application on the device after the status resource information indicates that the website is available. The server provides access to the website.

Callback notification for unavailable websites

Aspects of the present invention provide an approach for performing a computer program update on a target computer. In an embodiment, a target computer having a location, a user, a computer program, and a computer program update is determined. An expected install duration for installing the computer program update is determined. A social media service associated with the user is monitored. A user location is detected from the social media service and an update time window is estimated based on the user location and the distance that the user is away from the target computer location. A decision is made whether to install the computer program update based on the update time window and the expected install duration.

Electronic update handling based on user activity

Embodiments include method, systems and computer program products for a security tool to prevent data leakage. In some embodiments, it may be determine that a first application has been initiated. A focus change from the second application to the first application may be detected. Input data provided by a user may be detected. It may be determined that the input data comprises sensitive data. An action may be executed in response to determining that the input data comprises sensitive data.

Security tool to prevent sensitive data leakage

The method includes estimating an amount of unused memory in a memory allocation of one or more virtual machines based on a data associated with one or more applications previously dispatched to the one or more virtual machines. The method includes receiving a request for executing a new application. The method includes estimating an amount of memory utilized by one of the one or more virtual machines to execute the new application. The method includes dispatching the new application to one of the one or more virtual machine having an amount of unused memory exceeding the estimated amount of memory required to execute the new application. The method includes updating the data associated with the one or more applications previously dispatched to the one or more virtual machines by adding an identifier of the new application to the data.

Virtual machine load balancing

A display comprising an array of pixels having individually adjustable brightness levels; an array of light sensors fixed relative to the pixel array; and a brightness controller for estimating a glare footprint on the pixel array from light level data provided by the sensor array and for adjusting the relative brightness levels of pixels that fall in the estimated glare footprint.

Display brightness adjustment

According to embodiments of the invention, there is provided a computer program product, a method, and a system to clean an image produced by the system. A digital canvas representation of an initial condition is produced. A set of real-time digital information is captured to form an unconstrained digital representation of the set of real-time digital information. A constraining digital mask based on the digital canvas representation of the initial condition is applied to the unconstrained digital representation of the set of real-time digital information to form a constrained digital representation of the set of real-time digital information. The constrained digital representation of the set of real-time data is stored, allowing an application program to use the constrained representation of the real-time data.
