Abstract: A solution is proposed for managing containers isolating corresponding application environments from one or more shared operating systems in a computing system. One or more relevant groups are determined among one or more candidate groups (each comprising private data in common among a plurality of the containers); the candidate groups are determined according to corresponding access commands submitted by the containers and the relevant groups are determined according to one or more relevance policies. The private data of the relevant groups are consolidated into corresponding shared data.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and computer processing system are provided. The method includes identifying, by a processor, atomic operations within a sequence of data elements and metadata associated with the atomic operations. The sequence of data elements is related to an interaction between a user and a user interface of a computer system that includes the processor. The method also includes calculating, by the processor, correlation indexes from the metadata. A respective correlation index is calculated for various atomic operation groups formed from the atomic operations. The method additionally includes identifying, by the processor, a macro operation from at least one of the correlation indexes. The macro operation includes multiple correlated atomic operations from among the atomic operations identified within the sequence.

Abstract: Provided is a method for managing a mobile computing device in an emergency condition that includes receiving an emergency message indicative of the emergency condition being distributed from a management computing system to any mobile computing devices in an emergency area corresponding to the emergency condition. The method includes collecting one or more involvement parameters depending on an involvement of a person associated with the mobile computing device in the emergency condition. The method includes determining an involvement indicator representative of the involvement of the person according to the involvement parameters. The method includes sending the involvement indicator to the management computing system. The method includes controlling one or more resources thereof according to the involvement indicator.

Abstract: Maintaining a plurality of software instances of a software program in a computing environment. An updating request is received for an updating process of the software instances from an old level to a new level. An attempt is made to update each software instance to the new level according to at least one updating policy. Responsive to a failure of the updating of each failed instance of the software instances, an exchanging instance is searched among the other software instances according to at least one searching policy, the exchanging instance being adapted to be exchanged with the failed instance for continuing the updating process according to at least one optimization criterion of the computing environment. The failed instance and the exchanging instance are exchanged in response to a positive result of the searching. The updating process corresponding to the failed instance is resumed.

Abstract: A system for performing a remote pre-authentication of a user-device for accessing network services of one or more wi-fi network services of one or more wi-fi network providers. A data capturing module captures wi-fi registration data and user registration data. A receiving module receives a trip code relating to a user's travel bookings. An identifying module identifies geographical locations corresponding to the set of travel bookings associated with the user. An auto-populating module auto-populates a set of wi-fi login forms corresponding to the geographical locations. A gathering module gathers real-time location data of the user. An over-riding module over-rides the wi-fi registration process when the user comes within the range of the wi-fi service provider.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and computer processing system are provided. The method includes identifying, by a processor, atomic operations within a sequence of data elements and metadata associated with the atomic operations. The sequence of data elements is related to an interaction between a user and a user interface of a computer system that includes the processor. The method also includes calculating, by the processor, correlation indexes from the metadata. A respective correlation index is calculated for various atomic operation groups formed from the atomic operations. The method additionally includes identifying, by the processor, a macro operation from at least one of the correlation indexes. The macro operation includes multiple correlated atomic operations from among the atomic operations identified within the sequence.
