Abstract: Techniques for generating and using service call graphs are provided. In one technique, trace data items generated by different services are correlated to generate a service call graph. Trace data indicates when certain services are called and their respective latencies as a result of a client request. A service call graph may reflect a single trace or multiple traces over a particular period of time. A service call graph may be analyzed to inform administrators of a web site how a web application and the services it relies on are performing. A service call graph may be used to determine whether there are sufficient resources to support a projected increase in traffic to a web application. A service call graph may be used to estimate a cost of a web application. Multiple service call graphs may be compared to determine one or more root causes of a performance problem.

Abstract: A vehicle-to-vehicle communication system providing a spatiotemporal look ahead and method thereof is provided. A trailing vehicle having a look ahead capability can communicate with a preceding vehicle. The preceding vehicle can measure a distance to a leading vehicle and provide that information through vehicle-to-vehicle communications to the trailing vehicle. The trailing vehicle can then display an augmented reality indicator above the vehicle through its head-up display indicating how far the leading vehicle is in front of the preceding vehicle. An icon representing the leading vehicle can be displayed within the augmented reality indicator representing the leading vehicle. Braking actions by the leading vehicle can be communicated to the trailing vehicle through the augmented reality indicator.

Abstract: Techniques for evaluating the performance of a service or machine after a change that pertains to the service or machine are described. For example, an indication of a change that pertains to a service or machine is received. In response to the receiving of the indication of the change, using at least one computer processor, a performance of the service or machine after the change is evaluated. The evaluation may be based on a particular rule for evaluating the performance of the service or machine after the change. An evaluation result is generated based on the evaluating of the performance of the service or machine after the change. The evaluation result indicates the quality of the performance of the service or machine after the change.
