A sensor-enabled smart device may be recommended to a user. The sensor-enabled smart device may be identified from a registry on a network. The smart device may have the ability to send and receive real-time data over the network. A value of the device, to the user, may be determined based on user analytics. A vendor through which to sell the device may be determined based on market analytics. A sale of the device via the vendor may be recommended to the user.

In an approach to text prediction, a computer detects an initialization of a text-based communication between a first user and a second user. The computer determines whether a predictive text dictionary associated with the second user exists, wherein the predictive text dictionary is based, at least in part, on a history of communication between the first user and the second user. Responsive to determining a predictive text dictionary associated with the second user exists, the computer receives the text-based communication. The computer determines whether one or more words are detected in the text-based communication that do not exist in the predictive text dictionary associated with the second user. Responsive to determining one or more words are detected that do not exist in the predictive text dictionary associated with the second user, the computer adds the one or more new words to the predictive text dictionary associated with the second user.

User based text prediction

A method for a client-initiated leader election in a distributed system including receiving a master listener election request by at least one listener of a plurality of listeners in the distributed system, arranging a list of configured listeners in a descending priority order, the list of configured listeners comprises one or more listeners of the plurality of listeners set for connection, selecting a listener with a highest priority from the list of configured listeners, determining an availability of the selected listener, verifying a connectivity to the selected listener using a ping utility program, assigning the selected listener as a master listener based on the connectivity, and connecting to the master listener.
