In several aspects for creating a minute of a teleconference from a record thereof, a processor classifies portions of the record as relevant or non-relevant according to corresponding relevance indicators with respect to a topic of the teleconference. A processor removes the non-relevant portions from the record. A processor classifies pairs of relevant portions as similar or non-similar according to corresponding similarity indicators. A processor removes one of the relevant portions of each similar pair of relevant portions from the minute.

Creation of a minute from a record of a teleconference

A solution is proposed for managing a computing environment. A corresponding method comprises detecting critical commands and applying each critical command and possible following commands to the computing environment by maintaining an unchanged image thereof; a command effect of the application of the critical command on the computing environment is verified according to one or more operative parameters thereof, and the application of the critical/following commands is integrated into the computing environment in in response to a positive result of the verification. A computer program and a computer program product for performing the method are also proposed. Moreover, a system for implementing the method is proposed.

Management of computing environments with verification of command effects

Optimizing input component enablement for a plurality of communication devices that have input components associated with at least one of a group of meeting participants. At least one of the participants has an identification attribute in an electronic group meeting. A computer receives audio input from input components and analyzes qualitative attributes and content of the audio input to provide a set of quality metrics and a focus concept. The metrics are assessed to determine whether the audio input exceeds quality thresholds, and the focus concept is compared to participant identification attributes. A computer system makes determinations based on these assessments to selectively place input components that provide input with desired quality or which are associated with participants having identification attributes that correspond to the focus concept into an active speaking mode.

Using data analysis to optimize microphone enablement in a group electronic communication

An image controller intercepts a digital representation of an image originating from a user. The image controller performs a visual recognition operation on the image to identify at least one visual layer of a plurality of layers within the image and a separate perspective of the user associated with each layer. The image controller identifies a replacement layer assigned to an identifiable recipient, for a particular layer of the plurality of layers, in an analytics database specifying an expected perspective that corresponds with the separate perspective of the user for the particular layer. The image controller modifies the particular layer with the replacement layer for obtaining a transformed image amended for the identifiable recipient.

Adapting layers of an image for each recipient perspective

An embodiment of the invention may include a method, computer program product and system for executing a software application. The embodiment may include receiving a notification of an intended execution of the software application directly within an operating system of the computing device. The embodiment may include halting the intended execution. The embodiment may include determining whether the software application is known and safe. The embodiment may include determining whether the software application is known and malicious. The embodiment may include creating a container on the computing device. The embodiment may include executing the software application within the container. The embodiment may include monitoring an execution behavior of the software application. The embodiment may include determining whether an anomaly has occurred within the execution behavior. In response to determining that an anomaly has not occurred, the embodiment may include executing the software application directly within the operating system.
