Abstract: Identifying unvisited portions of visited information to visit includes receiving information to crawl, wherein the information is representative of one of web based information and non-web based information, computing a locality sensitive hash (LSH) value for the received information, and identifying a most similar information visited thus far. Identifying unvisited portions of visited information further includes determining whether the LSH of the received information is equivalent to most similar information visited thus far and, responsive to a determination that the LSH of the received information is not equivalent to most similar information visited thus far, identifying a visited portion of the received information using information for most similar information visited thus far and crawling only unvisited portions of the received information.

Abstract: A service provider can efficiently allocate server computer resources to tenant users, while isolating tenants from such allocation decisions. A tenant specifies a desktop model to be used for virtual desktops to be provisioned for a pool of users. The service provider has desktop managers for each tenant, each of which manages a homogeneous set of server computers to be used for provisioning virtual desktops for the tenant. Different desktop managers for a tenant are used to manage different sets of server computers to support virtual desktops using different desktop models or desktop models with different resource requirements. A resource manager of the service provider assigns virtual desktops to a desktop manager in a manner that optimizes the utilization of the server computers by using information about the desktop model used by the virtual desktops.
