  • Publication number: 20200401970
    Abstract: Based at least in part on current demand and current roles of workers associated with an organization, the electronic device computes a need for a first set of workers capable of performing a type of task. Then, based at least in part on locations of a second set of workers, current roles of the second set of workers, and additional qualifications of the second set of workers, the electronic device determines dynamic reassignments to the type of task for the second set of workers. Note that the type of task is different from sets of tasks that define the current roles. Next, the electronic device provides assignment information that proposes the dynamic reassignment to the type of task for the second set of workers, and receives opt-in messages from at least a subset of the second set of workers confirming acceptance of the dynamic reassignment.

  • Publication number: 20200379858
    Abstract: While scheduled checkpoints are being taken of a cluster of active compute nodes distributively executing an application in parallel, a likelihood of failure of the active compute nodes is periodically and independently predicted. Responsive to the likelihood of failure of a given active compute node exceeding a threshold, the given active compute node is proactively migrated to a spare compute node of the cluster at a next scheduled checkpoint. Another spare compute node of the cluster can perform prediction and migration. Prediction can be based on both hardware events and software events regarding the active compute nodes.

  • Patent number: 10810038
    Abstract: Utilizing a computing device to determine and enforce limits on cloud computing containers receiving data over a network. A determination is made of total container time remaining available for a first container to execute in a computing environment. Processor packet receipt time is determined for receiving and processing of a packet or a batch of packets via a network stack associated with the computing device. An updated total container time remaining is calculated for the first container accounting for the processor packet receipt time. The updated total container time remaining is enforced by dropping a subsequent packet or batch of packets received at the network stack if the updated total container time remaining is insufficient.

  • Publication number: 20200322313
    Abstract: A data transfer method and a virtual switch, where when receiving a data packet, the virtual switch extracts characteristic information of the data packet, and determines, based on the extracted characteristic information of the data packet, whether an expedited forwarding rule is configured for a data stream to which the data packet belongs. If the expedited forwarding rule is configured for the data stream to which the data packet belongs, the virtual switch bypasses a LINUX bridge to directly send the data packet to a receive end, thereby reducing times of data packet switching between a kernel mode and a user mode, and improving data packet forwarding efficiency.
