Abstract: A system for sharing and tracking tools among users in the field without need of a centralized tool repository, the users include tool owners and tool owners' connections, each user having a mobile device in communication with a remote server to track tools and facilitate transactions between users, a call to action on a mobile device of a requesting user includes a request to borrow, loan, or transfer a specific tool from one user to another, a suitable notification is sent to relevant users based on the call to action, and upon physical transfer of the specific tool to the intended recipient, a tool record associated with the specific tool is updated to identify the current user in physical possession of the specific tool. Tools are selected for a transaction on the mobile device or using a bar code or RFID on or associated with the specific tool.

Abstract: A scheduler of central processing unit (CPU) usage arranges tasks in a plurality of classes, associating a given task with a top level class and a sub-class. Weights may be associated with sub-classes and usage targets associated with top level classes. A target CPU usage may then be determined for the given task from a weight and a target CPU usage. Once an actual usage of the CPU by the given task is determined in a first predetermined evaluation interval, a penalty duration may be determined for the given task based on the actual usage and the target CPU usage. A penalty may then be applied to the given task for the penalty duration during a second predetermined evaluation interval.
