An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented method for correlating artifacts between a versioned domain and an un-versioned domain, generates metadata having attributes of both of the versioned domain and the un-versioned domains, for an artifact in a set of artifacts; creates an instance using a specific version of a versioned artifact definition, wherein the instance comprises a first part directly created from the versioned artifact definition and a second part created from an un-versioned artifact definition; specifies linkages between a respective representation of the artifact in the versioned domain and the un-versioned domain; provides a set of facades through which a selected one of author, execute and update instances of the artifact is performed using either the versioned domain or the un-versioned domain; and correlates all versions of the artifact definition to a single un-versioned definition.

Artifact correlation between domains

Mechanisms are provided for monitoring an area utilizing an unmanned vehicle. These mechanisms identify an area to be monitored by an unmanned vehicle and identify an unmanned vehicle assigned to monitoring the identified area. The mechanisms further generate, for the unmanned vehicle, a travel path to be traversed by the unmanned vehicle using a function to randomize generation of the travel path. Moreover, the mechanisms program the unmanned vehicle to traverse the generated travel path and initiate operation of the unmanned vehicle to collect data about the area while traversing the generated travel path. In addition, the mechanisms monitor the area utilizing the unmanned vehicle based on the data collected by the unmanned vehicle while traversing the generated travel path.

Differential dynamic content delivery including providing a session document for a presentation, wherein the session document includes a session grammar and a session structured document; selecting from the session structured document a classified structural element in dependence upon user classifications of a user participant in the presentation; presenting the selected structural element to the user; streaming presentation speech to the user including individual speech from at least one user participating in the presentation; converting the presentation speech to text; detecting whether the presentation speech contains simultaneous individual speech from two or more users; and displaying the text if the presentation speech contains simultaneous individual speech from two or more users.

For each of a plurality of different tenants configured to concurrently execute in a virtual environment, a respective class loader graph can be constructed. For each respective class loader graph, unique types of edges between nodes that affect class loading can be identified. The edges can be traversed. Based on traversing the edges of the class loader graph, a respective unique dependency identifier (UDI) can be assigned to each class loader request. Class loader requests that are assigned the same UDI can be identified in at least two of the tenants. Responsive to identifying the class loader requests that are assigned the same UDI, a shared class loader can be assigned to each of the class loader requests. Each respective class loader request that is assigned the same UDI can be configured to call the shared class loader to load at least one class required by the respective tenant.

Sharing of classes for modular programs in a multi-tenant environment

Creating a presentation document includes creating, in dependence upon an original document, a structured document comprising one or more structural elements and creating a presentation grammar for the structured document, wherein the presentation grammar for the structured document includes grammar elements each of which includes a structural element identifier for at least one structural element of the structured document.

Decreasing battery power consumption in a mobile communication device by reducing transmission power is provided. In response to a cellular communication tower detecting a state of the mobile communication device communicating wirelessly, the cellular communication tower directs the mobile communication device to reduce the transmission power of the mobile communication device to decrease the battery power consumption in the mobile communication device. The state of the mobile communication device receives information at a first rate and sends information at a second rate below a threshold.

Differential dynamic content delivery with text display in dependence upon simultaneous speech

Differential dynamic content delivery including providing a session document for a presentation, where the session document includes a session grammar and a session structured document; selecting from the session structured document a classified structural element in dependence upon user classifications of a user participant in the presentation; presenting the selected structural element to the user; streaming speech to the user from one or more users participating in the presentation; converting the speech to text; detecting a total sound level for the user; and determining whether to display the text in dependence upon the total sound level for the user.

Example embodiments of the present invention include a method for administering devices. Such example embodiments include receiving a domain state object, identifying an action in dependence upon the domain state object, and executing the action. In many example embodiments, receiving a domain state object includes receiving a signal to download the domain state object from a mobile sensor, and downloading the domain state object from the mobile sensor.

Administering devices with domain state objects

Exemplary methods, systems, and products are described for creating rules for the administration of end-user license agreements ('EULAs'). Creating rules for the administration of end-user license agreements is accomplished by identifying, from historical license data, a license administration pattern. A license administration rule is then created in dependence upon the license administration pattern. Identifying a license administration pattern from historical license data may include data mining a collection of accepted EULAs and data mining a collection of rejected EULAs.
