Abstract: Methods and systems for optimization of proprietary workloads involve receiving workload simulation data indicative of a proprietary computing task using proprietary information. Workload attributes are generated based on the workload simulation data without using the proprietary information. The workload attributes are used to dynamically determine a workload policy for configuration of hardware resources at an information handling system executing the proprietary computing task. After dynamic configuration of the hardware resources according to the workload policy, the proprietary computing task is executed at the information handling system.

Abstract: A service provider system may include an application fulfillment platform that delivers desktop applications on demand to desktops on physical computing devices or virtual desktop instances of end users. An application delivery agent installed on an end user's computing resource instance may store application state data (e.g., configuration data, runtime settings, or application templates) or scratch data that is generated by an application executing on the computing resource instance to a secure location on service provider storage resources. After a machine failure or change, or a rebuilding of a virtualized computing resource instance or virtual desktop instance, an application delivery agent installed on the new machine or instance may reinstall the application, retrieve the stored application state or scratch data from service provider resources, and restore the application to the last known persisted state.

Abstract: A virtualization manager executing on a processing device adds a host to a list of hosts associated with the virtualization manager. The virtualization manager identifies a list of external VMs running on the host that are not managed by the virtualization manager. The virtualization manager obtains detailed information for each of the external VMs running on the host from an agent running on the host. The virtualization manager then manages the external VMs running on the host using the detailed information.

Abstract: A system provides workflow management functions over a messaging or data protocol. A workflow management object defining functions and values and events for sending and receiving workflow management data is defined on a first device and transmitted to a second device. On the second device the workflow is rendered for interaction and response, and an interaction with the workflow object is captured. A captured or generated response is transmitted back to the first device or intermediary system via the messaging protocol. The response to the workflow object (e.g. an event) may be used by the device or intermediary systems to update a status of a workflow such as hosted by a remote server system. Events detected by a workflow system may invoke processing of subsequent workflow objects in a chain such that a complex workflow may be processed over the messaging protocol.

Abstract: A system, methods, and apparatus for protection against interrupts in virtual machine functions are disclosed. A system includes memory, one or more physical processors, a virtual machine executing on the one or more physical processors, and a hypervisor executing on the one or more physical processors. The hypervisor determines a first location in the memory, corresponding to a physical address of the virtual machine function, and loads into memory at a second location in the memory outside the first location in the memory. The hypervisor initializes abort code at the second location in the memory. Prior to an execution of an instruction that loads an interrupt data structure on the virtual machine, a trap to the hypervisor is activated. The hypervisor then modifies a page table corresponding to the interrupt data structure to point to the initialized abort code.

Abstract: A sequence controller includes a periodic execution type sequence control module configured to execute each regular processing function block in a predetermined control period, an irregular processing function block storage configured to hold an irregular processing function block generated by a user, and a time-sharing execution type sequence control module configured to execute the irregular processing function block called from the irregular processing function block storage in free time of the control period. The periodic execution type sequence control module is configured to call the irregular processing function block from the irregular processing function block storage and to execute the irregular processing function block in the control period.

Abstract: A system, methods, and apparatus for protection against interrupts in virtual machine functions are disclosed. A hypervisor determines a first location in the memory, corresponding to a physical address of the virtual machine function. The hypervisor then determines a second location in the memory of the virtual machine function, where the second location is offset from the first location. The hypervisor modifies the virtual machine function at the second location in the memory to include checking code. The virtual machine function is executed and the checking code is executed while the virtual machine function is executing. While executing the checking code, the hypervisor determines whether interrupts are disabled on a virtual machine. Responsive to determining that interrupts are enabled on the virtual machine, disabling the interrupts on the virtual machine and/or aborting the virtual machine function.

The first microcomputer includes a process load level detecting unit that detects a process load level of the first microcomputer, a table in which the process load level is associated with data identification information, and a reception data reducing unit that, in a case where the process load level becomes equal to or greater than a first threshold level, stops receiving one or more data which the first microcomputer has received before the process load level becomes greater than or equal to the first threshold value.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for allocating storage for virtual machine instances. The input/output (I/O) usage of disk extents utilized by a virtual machine is saved in an I/O profile of the virtual machine. In response to deallocating the virtual machine, the I/O usage of the disk extents is extracted from its I/O profile and saved in a data structure. Upon starting a new instance of the virtual machine, new disk extents are allocated to the new virtual machine instance. The I/O usage of the disk extents for the previous incarnation of the virtual machine is applied to the disk extents allocated to the new virtual machine instance. The newly allocated disk extents can now be placed in either a solid-state drive device or a hard disk drive device based on this I/O history without requiring a twenty-four hour long cycle.
