Abstract: A virtual machine's (VM's) usage of a resource over a first time period may be monitored to determine a load pattern for the VM. A time series analysis of the load pattern may be performed to generate a predictive resource usage model, the predictive resource usage model indicating one or more predicted variations in the usage of the resource by the VM over a second time period. A predicted resource usage of the VM at a future time that is within the second time period may be determined based, at least in part, on the predictive resource usage model. An amount of the resource to allocate to the VM at a current time may be determined based, at least in part, on the predicted resource usage of the VM at the future time and the actual resource usage of the VM at the current time.

Abstract: Disclosed here are systems and methods that allow users, upon detecting errors within a running workflow, to either 1) pause the workflow and directly correct its design before resuming the workflow, or 2) pause the workflow, correct the erred action within the workflow, resume running the workflow, and afterwards apply the corrections to the design of the workflow. The disclosure comprises functionality that pauses a single workflow and other relevant workflows as soon as the error is detected and while it is corrected. The disclosed systems and methods improve communication technology between the networks and servers of separate parties relevant and/or dependent on successful execution of other workflows.

Abstract: A method for managing access to a shared resource in an electronic system including a control unit and the shared resource. The control unit is intended to execute applications that are candidates for access to the shared resource. The method uses a calendar of periods of equal duration, each assigned to just one of the applications, to define a temporal distribution of access to the shared resource, and penalty indices associated with each of the applications. The method includes steps for conditionally processing the access requests transmitted by the applications according to their penalty indices. Thus, each application is prevented from accessing the shared resource when the quota assigned thereto is reached, which makes it possible to limit the encroachment of an application that is executed on the access quotas for accessing the resource that are assigned to the other applications.

Based on a comparison between the deadline(s) and the estimates, the operating parameters of the GPU may be changed.

Abstract: A volume rehost tool migrates a storage volume from a source virtual server within a distributed storage system to a destination storage server within the distributed storage system. The volume rehost tool can prevent client access to data on the volume through the source virtual server until the volume has been migrated to the destination virtual server. The tool identifies a set of storage objects associated with the volume, removes configuration information for the set of storage objects, and removes a volume record associated with the source virtual server for the volume. The tool can then create a new volume record associated with the destination virtual server, apply the configuration information for the set of storage objects to the destination virtual server, and allow client access to the data on the volume through the destination virtual server.
