Abstract: A system and method for idle processor management in virtualized systems are disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment, a guest operating system (OS) of a virtual machine estimates an idle time for a virtual central processing unit (CPU) of the virtual machine, where the virtual machine is executed by a CPU of a host computer system, and where the virtual CPU is mapped to the CPU. The guest OS also estimates a host latency time for the host computer system, where the host latency time is based on at least one of: a first power state of the CPU, a context switch associated with execution of the virtual machine by the CPU, or an idle state of a hypervisor executed by the CPU. When the idle time for the virtual CPU divided by a performance multiplier exceeds the host latency time, the virtual CPU is caused to halt.

In particular, in one embodiment, a computer operates an IoT IDE that discovers real-world physical devices within a computer network that are available to participate with the IoT IDE. The IoT IDE may then determine a respective functionality of each of the real-world physical devices, and virtually represents the real-world physical devices as selectable options within the IoT IDE for an IoT application, where a respective virtual representation of each of the real-world physical devices is configured within the IoT IDE with the corresponding respective functionality of that real-world physical device. Simulating the IoT application within the IoT IDE then relays input and/or output (I/O) between the IoT IDE and a selected set of real-world physical devices according to their corresponding respective functionality.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for, without rebooting a computing device, unloading at least a component of a kernel-mode component of the computing device and loading an updated version of the component of the kernel-mode component. The techniques may be performed by an integrity manager associated with the kernel-mode component. The integrity manager may also determine integrity of the kernel-mode component by causing the kernel-mode component to perform an action associated with a known reaction, determining whether the known reaction occurred, and in response, performing a remediation action or notifying a remote security service. Further, the integrity manager may determine whether any computing device lists include representations of components or connections associated with the kernel-mode component. The integrity manager may then remove the representations from the lists or remove the representations from responses to requests for contents of the computing device lists.

A minimal set of application components that includes at least the necessary components for launching the application is first downloaded to an endpoint device from a central server. The application is launched on the endpoint from the minimal set. If the application requests a missing component that is not available on the endpoint, the missing component is requested and delivered on-demand from a maximal set located on the server, where the maximal set contains all possible application components. The application is suspended during the download of the missing component. After the missing component is downloaded, the application is resumed, having access to the missing component on the endpoint.

Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, test management computing devices that obtain test scripts associated with a test suite for testing an application for the test scripts. A vector model is generated based on a semantic vectorization of the obtained test scripts. A cluster optimization is implemented on the vector model to identify a plurality of maximally separate and compact clusters. A subset of the test scripts that are candidates for facilitating reduction of the test suite is determined, based on the identified clusters, and an indication of each test script of the subset of the test scripts is output. With this technology, a semantic analysis of test scripts of a test suite is implemented to reduce the size of the test suite while advantageously maintaining the coverage with respect to an associated enterprise application as well as ensuring a low level of redundancy present in the test suite.

Abstract: A virtual machine manager facilitates selective code integrity enforcement. A virtual machine manager (or other higher privileged entity) can verify the integrity of code in memory pages, and a virtual processor running in kernel mode executes the code on a memory page only if the virtual machine manager (or other higher privileged entity) has verified the code integrity of that code. However, the virtual machine manager need not verify the integrity of code in memory pages when the virtual processor is running in user mode. Rather, an operating system running on the virtual processor can apply any of a variety of policies (e.g., optionally perform any of a variety of different checks or verifications of the code) to determine whether the code can be executed in user mode.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for monitoring processes running on a platform as a service architecture. One example method includes storing a received sample of monitored attributes of a computer process in a sample memory buffer that includes other stored samples. A determination is made that the sample memory buffer is full. The sample memory buffer is compressed. A starting position in a compressed sample file store at which to store the compressed sample memory buffer is determined. The compressed sample memory buffer is stored at the determined starting position in the compressed sample file store. The starting position of the stored compressed sample memory buffer is stored at a particular location in a file position index. A collection timestamp for the sample in a timestamp index is stored at a timestamp index location that matches the particular location in the file position index.
