Abstract: An archival data storage service dispatches a first robotic device of a data storage library to perform a first task that involves moving a first data storage tape from a tape drive to a slot of the data storage library. The service select a second task to be performed by a second robotic device, which can be performed without the first robotic device causing delay of the second task. While the first robotic device is performing the first task, the archival data storage service dispatches the second robotic device to perform the second task.

Abstract: A leak detector includes a sensor assembly including at least one sensor configured to sense acoustic signals; and at least one printed circuit board coupled to the sensor assembly and configured to support a processing device, the processing device comprising at least a microcontroller unit (MCU) and a digital signal processor (DSP), wherein the MCU is configured to continually receive acoustic signals from the sensor assembly, and wherein the DSP is configured to remain in a sleep mode except when the MCU wakes the DSP from the sleep mode at predetermined times.

Abstract: A resource management computer node obtains hardware utilization values measured for a hardware resource of a computer system being used by a software application. For a set of the utilization values that were measured during a same time-of-day range on a same day of week, the node determines a count value indicating a number of times the utilization values in the set exceed a count threshold, determines a count percentage based on a ratio of the count value to a sum of count values determined for the same day of week, compares the count percentage to a busy threshold, and, responsive to if the count percentage is determined to exceed the busy threshold, sets a busy indicator object at a location in a resource utilization data structure having a defined correspondence to the time-of-day range. The node controls reservation of hardware resources for the software application responsive to whether the busy indicator object has been set.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining speed benchmark values and throughput benchmark values for a plurality of computing systems, and generating a plurality of sets of first processor scalability factors. For each set of first processor scalability factors, a predicted throughput value is generated for each computing system based on the set of first processor scalability factors and the speed benchmark value of the computing system. The throughput benchmark value is compared to the predicted throughput value for each of the plurality of computing systems, and a set of first processor scalability factors is identified from among the plurality of sets of first processor scalability factors for which, for a largest number of the computing systems, the predicted throughput value of the computing systems is less than a predetermined difference from the throughput benchmark value of the computing systems.
