Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, computer program product, and computer system for leveraging checkpoint restart. The method includes determining a first set of work stages within a first computation algorithm. A set of permissions associated with the first set of work stages are identified, and the work stages are stored as checkpoints in either a public location or a private location. Upon deployment of a second computation algorithm, a second set of work stages within the second computation algorithm is compared to the first set of work stages. If the second set of work stages match with the first set of work stages, the second computation algorithm is executed using the checkpoint associated with the matching work stages.

The portable computing device detects that a connection is made with an audio output system. The portable computing device determines a first audio playback application that last played audio and when the first audio playback application last played audio. If the first audio playback application played audio within a specified amount of time in the past, then the portable computing device signals that audio playback be performed from the first audio playback application (through the connection made with the audio output system.

The computer determines whether the file may be printed based, at least in part, on the identified potential copyrighted material. In another approach for determining printability of an electronic document, a computer electronically receives a document for printing. The computer locates attributes associated with the document and stored in a separate database, which includes one or more of the following: ownership, licensing information, printability, and number of prints allowed. The computer determines the document is printable based on the attributes and prints the document.
