Technical solutions are described for determining a route for multiple users traveling to a common destination. An example method includes determining, by a multiuser route generator, a multiuser route for a plurality of users traveling to the common destination, the multiuser route comprising a waypoint, the waypoint being a location to which each of the plurality of users travel independently, and travel to the common destination jointly thereafter. Determining the multiuser route includes receiving departure locations of the users, determining the waypoint, and calculating a first total of travel parameters associated with the users traveling to the waypoint independently and jointly thereafter that is lesser than a second total of travel parameters associated with the users traveling to the common destination independently. The method further includes sending the multiuser route to navigation devices of the respective users, the navigation devices navigating the respective users along the multiuser route.

Optimized route planning for multiple travelers with the same destination

Testing is performed to ensure integrity of a file system auditing component and of a file system. A list of file access events is built. This list includes expected events that should be triggered by the file system and found in a log. The events in the list are run on the file system and logged. The log of expected events is then compared with actual events logged by the file system to determine the integrity of the file system auditing component and the file system.

Testing of file system events triggered by file access

Aspects include obtaining, by a processor, a prescription of a medication for a patient. Then, aspects include obtaining, by the processor, a patient profile associated with the patient and obtaining, by the processor, medication details for the medication. Aspects also include displaying to the patient, by a first device, the medication details.

Minimizing errors in prescription medication dispensing

Aspects include monitoring for occurrences of selected events at a computer system, the monitoring by a processor that is coupled to the computer system. A list of event records for each of the selected events is built by the processor. The building of event records includes generating an event record for each occurrence of an event detected by the monitoring. The lists of event records for the selected events are merged into a merged list of event records that are in chronological order. A machine report for the computer system that includes the merged list of event records is stored.

Self-reporting and self-upgrading of enterprise systems

Methods, systems and computer program products for providing notifications to drivers based on observed local driver patterns are provided. Aspects include storing a number of times that each driver travels across a road segment and classifying the drivers as local drivers for the road segment if the number of times the driver traversed the road segment is greater than a threshold number. Aspects also include determining an expected driving pattern for the road segment. Based on a determination that a local driver deviated from the expected driving pattern, aspects include storing an indication of how the local driver deviated from the expected driving pattern and a condition at that time. Based on a determination that greater than a threshold percentage of local drivers deviated from the expected driving pattern, aspects include notifying a driver traversing the road segment of a variant driving pattern for the road segment.

Local driver pattern based notifications

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method that includes determining, by a vehicle controller associated with a vehicle, a typical driving behavior of a driver of the vehicle. The method also includes detecting, by the vehicle controller associated with the vehicle, that the driver has deviated from the typical driving behavior. The method also includes transmitting a notification that indicates that the driver has deviated from the typical driving behavior.

Providing a notification based on a deviation from a determined driving behavior

Determining a route based on road conditions includes receiving an origin and a destination from a user and calculating a plurality of routes from the origin to the destination. Aspects also include obtaining weather data along each of the plurality of routes and ranking each of the plurality of routes based on the weather data, a user profile, and on historical weather response data for areas along each of the plurality of routes. Aspects also include providing a route with a highest ranking from the plurality of routes to the user.

A management system monitors a set of objects of a user by wirelessly communicating with one or more location components associated with the objects, and each object of the set has a respective location component. The monitoring includes ascertaining by the management system, based at least in part on data obtained via wireless communication with the location component(s), a spatial centroid of the set and a spatial separation of an object in the set from the spatial centroid, and correlating the ascertained spatial centroid to a context classification of multiple context classifications. The management system further determines whether a difference between the ascertained spatial separation and the average spatial separation of the location component(s) for the correlated context classification exceeds an acceptable spatial separation tolerance. Based on the difference exceeding the acceptable tolerance, the management system provides an electronic alert to the user.

Set-based object management system

Compare points are detected in a multi-threaded computing environment. One thread of the multi-threaded computing environment has reached a compare point for the one thread. The compare point for the one thread being a point at which results of executing a test case on the one thread is ready to be compared against expected results for that test case. A determination is made as to whether another thread of the multi-threaded computing environment has reached a compare point for the another thread. Execution of the another thread is continued, based on determining the another thread has not reached the compare point for the another thread. The test case of the one thread is, however, not re-executed.

Compare point detection in multi-threaded computing environments

A set of test cases is obtained to evaluate the resource configuration of a computing environment. One or more test cases of the set of test cases are randomly selected and sent to one or more logical partitions of the computing environment. Execution of the one or more test cases on the one or more logical partitions is monitored. Based on the monitoring, verify whether processing associated with the one or more logical partitions is being performed at an acceptable level. Based on the verifying indicating that the processing is not at an acceptable level, initiating reconfiguring of resources of at least one logical partition of the one or more logical partitions.

Allocation of resources among logical partitions

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a computer-implemented method for building and executing test cases. A non-limiting example of the computer-implemented method includes building, using a processor, a master test case instruction stream including a plurality of instructions including a replaceable instruction. The computer-implemented method builds, using the processor, a test case instruction stream derivative including the plurality of instructions including a replacement instruction in lieu of the replaceable instruction, and predicts, using the processor, a predicted result of executing the test case instruction stream derivative in a test case environment. The computer-implemented method executes, using the processor, the test case instruction stream derivative on the test case environment to generate an actual test case result and compares, using the processor, the actual test case result with the predicted result to determine proper operation of the test case environment.
