The present disclosure relates to a system to evaluate an avatar generated by an avatar generator. The system comprises an evaluation module including an audio evaluation module for evaluating audio features and a video evaluation module for evaluating video features. Evaluation of the avatar includes extracting audio and video features from the avatar and applying a set of evaluation metrics for generating audio and video evaluation scores. The scores are combined to generate a final score. For avatar generator evaluation, audio clip and video clip are provided to the audio evaluation module and video evaluation module, respectively. A set of evaluation metrics is applied for evaluation. Each metric can generate a score. All scores are combined to generate a final evaluation score.

An Application Packaging Standard (APS) is a specification defining application's life cycle in a cloud. The application's life cycle includes packaging, delivering to the cloud, verification of package, integrating (and unpacking) into the cloud, distributing to clients, licensing, functionality, updates and deletion. The APS has its own Application Programming Interface (API) for accessing the APS functions from a program code or by http/https requests. The APS provides for efficient integration of SaaS web applications into the cloud.

A system, method and computer program product for managing files of Virtual Machines, including launching a plurality of Virtual Machines in a computing system having a host OS. Content of at least one file of the host OS is used as a shared file. Using a re-direct, access is provided to the shared file when any Virtual Machine attempts to access its private file; using copy-on-write, a copy is made of the shared file if the Virtual Machine attempts to modify the shared file, and placed in a private area of the corresponding Virtual Machine. One of the Virtual Machines is used as master template, and includes shareable files to which attempts to access the file by other Virtual Machines are redirected. Access to the shared file from the Virtual Machine is implemented using stub files.
