A system may include a memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The processor may be configured to perform operations. The operations may include loading environment rules and available workloads and retrieving workload data for the available workloads, execution environment data of an execution environment, and historic workload data. The operations may include selecting a workload for the execution environment and determining execution settings for the workload. The operations may include submitting the workload to an execution queue for execution in the execution environment according to the execution settings.

Central randomized scheduler for hypothesis-based workloads

Aspects of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for monitoring a health status of a computing system. The method includes one or more processors deploying a respective monitoring prediction agent in each of a plurality of worker nodes of a computing system. The method further includes determining, for each of the plurality of worker nodes by the respective monitoring prediction agent, a single binary health status value by comparing a time-dependent function of performance metric data values of the respective worker node to upper and lower threshold values. The method further includes receiving the binary health status values together with respective identity information from each of the plurality of worker nodes. The method further includes generating a dataset indicative of a health status of the computing system by feeding the received respective identity information to hash functions of a Counting Bloom Filter.

A method, computer system, and a computer program product for execution of a stateless service on a node in a workload execution environment is provided. The present invention may include defining for each node a workload container including a cache component of a cache-mesh. The present invention may include, upon receiving a state request from a stateless requesting service from one of the cache components of the cache-mesh in an execution container, determining whether a requested state is present in the cache component of a related execution container. The present invention may include, upon a cache miss, broadcasting the state request to other cache components of the cache-mesh, determining, by the other cache components, whether the requested state is present in respective caches, and upon any cache component identifying the requested state, sending the requested state to the requesting service using a protocol for communication.

Mechanisms are provided to implement an auto-propagation tagging engine. For a selected first content item in a content item ontology, an auto-propagation metadata tag is retrieved. For the auto-propagation metadata tag a corresponding auto-propagation distance property stored in a corresponding entry, associated with the auto-propagation metadata tag, in an auto-propagation metadata tag mapping data structure is identified. The auto-propagation metadata tag is propagated to a related second content item based on a traversal of the content item ontology. The related second content item is within a distance, in the content item ontology, of the selected first content item corresponding to the auto-propagation distance property. The related second content item is modified to include the auto-propagation metadata tag in content of metadata associated with the related second content item to generate an updated content item which is output to a publishing tool of a content management system for publication.

Automatically propagating tagging of content items in a content management system environment

Automatically generating a client-side application based on available components is provided. A source code and related build information of a component is stored in a component repository. The component is developed in a developer mode of a developer tool. An existing single-page application is changed using a non-expert editing tool by selecting a component from the component repository, retrieving the selected component from the repository, extracting build information from the retrieved component, adding dependencies regarding the retrieved component to a single-page packaging of the existing single-page application, and compiling the single-page application together with the retrieved component.

Single page application continuous integration, build, and deployment

Approving a group purchase request for a group of articles. A sub-group of articles is selected, wherein a unique article approval index is assigned to each of the articles and a highest article approval index is determined among the unique article approval indexes of the articles of the group, wherein the article of the group is selected into the sub-group if the article of the group complies with at least one of following article selection criteria: the unique article approval index of the article of the group is above a predetermined approval index threshold and the unique approval index of the article of the group is equal to the highest article approval index; approving the group purchase request for the group if the group purchase request for the sub-group is approved; and rejecting the group purchase request for the group if the group purchase request for the sub-group is rejected.

Remotely awakening an electronic device, in which an apparatus includes a power supply to supply external power; a receiver for an electromagnetic signal; a capacitor connected to the receiver; a switching circuit connected to the capacitor; a controller, being part of the electronic device, connected to receive power from the switching circuit and to provide a keep awake signal to the switching circuit. The switching circuit to connect the controller with the capacitor when the capacitor is loaded with a predefined amount of power via the receiver, and responsive to the keep awake signal to disconnect the controller from the capacitor and to connect the controller with the power supply afterwards. The controller performs an initialization phase in response to receiving power and enables the keep awake signal after completing the initialization phase.
