Abstract: An approach is disclosed that determines that a change is needed to a remote system that is managed by a change management system that manages changes to many remote systems. A change management time window when the change is scheduled to be performed at the selected remote system is identified and a monitoring request is sent to the remote system. The monitoring request causes the remote system to run a monitoring process. The change management system receives an activity notification that was identified by the monitoring process. In response to the activity notification matching the change needed, the change scheduled at the selected remote system is canceled by the change management system.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for providing vehicular recommendations based on driver habits. Embodiments utilize a variety of input data, including, but not limited to, static vehicular data, dynamic vehicular data, and/or environmental data. In embodiments, empirical rules are used to adjust recommended maintenance schedules based on the input conditions. Additionally, the adjusted recommendations along with unscheduled maintenance data are input to a machine learning system, such as a neural network. The machine learning system is used to further revise the maintenance schedule, estimate end of life of the vehicle, and issue recommendations for when to sell a vehicle and recommendations on attributes of a new vehicle for acquisition.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes: monitoring, by a user device, a location of the user device; determining, by the user device and based on the monitoring, that the user is within a threshold distance or a threshold arrival time of the service provider location; and outputting, by the user device, user information to the service provider based on the determining that the user is within the threshold distance or the threshold arrival time of the service provider location. The user information indicates services to provide to the user by the service provider upon the user's arrival to the service provider location. The outputting causes the service provider to receive the user information for serving the user upon the user's arrival to the service provider location.
