  • Patent number: 10574542
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for distributing resources for operating applications within a network by determining a composite resource consumption of the network of resources distributed throughout the network, and determining minimum, maximum and average values of each of the resources required to operate the applications. When an application is introduced into, or removed from, the network, then a change in the composite resource consumption of the network is determined and a software patch is generated to adjust resource distribution throughout the network so that resource allocation to active applications is normalized for optimal operation.

  • Publication number: 20170046780
    Abstract: A method for making a decision of long step and healthy credit limit enhancement. A computer constructs a Markov decision process graph which includes nodes and edges, wherein the nodes represent respective states of one or more customer segments and the edges represent paths based on historical data. The computer applies long step actions for a respective one of the one or more customer segments, wherein the long step actions enhance more than one credit limit levels. The computer calculates gained values of the long step actions. The computer chooses an optimal long step action from the long step actions, wherein the optimal long step action has a maximum gained value.
