EFFICIENT PLACEMENT OF SERVERLESS WORKLOADS ON TRANSIENT INFRASTRUCTURE ON POLICY-DRIVEN RE-LOCATION
Publication number: 20240103923Abstract: A computer-implemented method for executing a serverless workload on a transient infrastructure is disclosed. The method comprises receiving a request for executing a workload and at least one policy, selecting an infrastructure component of the transient infrastructure for an execution of the workload, wherein the transient infrastructure is implemented utilizing a plurality of geographically distributed computing nodes, and executing the workload on the transient infrastructure. Furthermore, the method comprises upon receiving an interfering event during the execution of the workload causing a stop of the workload execution, freezing the execution of the workload, storing intermediate results and statuses of the workload execution in a cross-domain storage system, terminating the execution of the workload, and continuing the workload execution using the intermediate results and under a constraint defined by the at least one policy.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Enrico Regge, Michael Beck, Werner Schuetz, Peter Gerstl, Simon Daniel Moser, Sugandha Agrawal -
Publication number: 20240050907Abstract: The present disclosure relates to semipermeable membranes which are suitable for blood purification, e.g. by hemodialysis, which have an increased ability to remove larger molecules while at the same time effectively retaining albumin. The membranes are characterized by a molecular retention onset (MWRO) of between 9.0 kD and 14.5 kD and a molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) of between 55 kD and 130 kD as determined by dextran sieving curves and can be prepared by industrially feasible processes excluding a treatment with salt before drying. The invention therefore also relates to a process for the production of the membranes and to their use in medical applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 4, 2023Publication date: February 15, 2024Inventors: Adriana BOSCHETTI-DE-FIERRO, Manuel VOIGT, Bernd KRAUSE, Markus HORNUNG, Markus STORR, Heinrich BEHR, Werner BECK, Carina ZWEIGART, Reinhold BUCK, Philipp HERBST, Joachim LOERCHER, Arnd WOCHNER
