A program product for detecting abnormal behavior of users is disclosed. A computer identifies first and second users based on user definitions and at least one personal device associated with the users. Activities of the users are monitored in real time based on the user definitions, location data received over a time series from the personal devices. A proximity distance, between the personal devices over the time series, is identified based on the location data. The computer generates movement patterns for the personal devices over the time series based on the location data and the proximity distance and creates a workflow. The computer compares the current location with the workflow in real time, and detects a deviation from the workflow in response to the comparing the current location in real time. The computer generates an alert in response to the detecting deviation in real time.

Monitoring and alerting a user to variants from predicted patterns based on real time device analysis

Biometric information is monitored for a user. Current activity is identified for the user. The biometric information for the user from an activity tracking device for the user is monitored while a current activity occurs. An alert is generated when the biometric information is out of a desired range for the current activity.

Biometric monitoring system

A method for monitoring biometric information for a user is provided. The method comprises a computer system identifying current activity for the user. The computer system monitors the biometric information for the user from an activity tracking device for the user while a current activity occurs. Finally, the computer system generates an alert when the biometric information is out of a desired range for the current activity.

Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for splitting writes between a storage controller and replication engine. A splitter executing in a storage controller manages access to primary volumes. An initialization command is received to communicate with a replication engine. A replication command is received for one primary volume and the primary volume is indicated as subject to replication. A write request is received to write data to a target primary volume of the primary volumes that is indicated as subject to the replication. The data in the write request is written to the target primary volume. The data in the write request is sent to the replication engine. The replication engine executes a copy services function associated with the target primary volume to write the data to a replication engine volume.

Splitting writes between a storage controller and replication engine

Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for a replication engine communicating with a splitter to split writes between a storage controller and replication engine. Communication is initiated with the splitter implemented in a storage controller managing access to primary volumes. A command is sent to the splitter to copy writes to one primary volume to the replication engine. Write data is received from the splitter to one of the primary volumes following the splitter receiving the command to copy the writes to the replication engine. A determination is made of a copy services function to use for the received data. The determined copy services function is invoked to transfer the received data to a secondary storage volume.

A mixture of granulated particles comprising ceramic fibers sized to pass through a screen having an opening measuring not more than 3/4of an inch, a binder of colloidal silica, and water are mixed to form a granulated mixture. The ceramic fibers comprise 68.3 wt % of the mixture, colloidal silica comprises 7.5 wt %, and water comprises 24.2 wt % of the mixture. Further, the mixture may be encased in a moistureproof bag for storage and shipping.
