Abstract: Computing devices, computer-readable storage media, and computer-implemented methods are disclosed for prediction of capacity. In a central tier, central-tier benchmark values are generated from benchmark testing performed on different test configurations in a reference execution environment. In a deployment tier, deployment-tier benchmark values are generated from benchmark testing performed on a baseline deployed configuration in many execution environments. A sizing model is learned from the central-tier benchmark values to predict execution platform requirements given a set of workload input parameters. A performance model is learned from the deployment-tier and the central-tier benchmark values to predict a performance delta value reflecting relative performance between a particular execution environment and the reference execution environment. The performance delta value is used to adjust predicted execution platform requirements to tailor the prediction to a particular execution environment.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a cosmetic article having a decorative embossed and/or debossed surface, based on at least one cosmetic product hot-poured into a container, this method making use of: a receptacle forming said container and having a peripheral wall and a bottom, said receptacle having at least one filling area, each filling area extending from the bottom of said receptacle and having a filling hole and at least one vent hole, and a closure member that cooperates with the receptacle to define an enclosed filling cavity with the at least one filling area, and having an embossed and/or debossed surface adapted to give the cosmetic product poured into said cavity an embossed and/or debossed surface, said method comprising at least the following steps: a) positioning the receptacle on the closure member so that the embossed and/or debossed surface extends into the filling area; b) hot-injecting the cosmetic product into the filling cavity by means of a filling head inserted in th
