Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for user-specific curation of applications from heterogeneous application sources. Multiple components are interconnected to perform user-specific curation operations. The user-specific curation operations comprise accessing application metadata corresponding to a plurality of applications from a plurality of application sources. The application sources may be heterogeneous and may be situated at local sites or at remote sites. A set of rules are applied to the application metadata to determine if one or more applications are authorized for use by a particular user or group. Publication attributes that control accessibility by a particular user or particular group of users are associated with the authorized applications. Based on the publication attributes as they apply to a particular user, one or more curated applications are selected from the authorized applications.

Abstract: Embodiments are described for performing an uninterrupted restore in a storage system in view of one or more abort events. A restore agent receives writes one or more data blocks to a conditional construction container. A parent interrupt service routine (ISR) polls for abort events. In response to an abort event, an intermediate interrupt is generated that spawns a child processes for each process of the restore. The intermediate ISR logs each child ISR, the process it is responsible for, and the intermediate interrupt, for later restoration of the restore state. After a recovery of the above event, then each child ISR can be called to restore its state. After restoring the state, the restore agent resumes the restore from where the abort event was detected. The child ISRs are re-entrant. If another abort event is detected, the restore state can again be saved and later resumed from that state.

A second adapter interface establishes a second connection to the servers, providing access to a second zone. The first zone includes a set of resources assigned to the first level of security that is not included in the second zone. A third adapter interface establishes a third connection to the servers, providing access to a quarantine. Each adapter interface further receives data and applies different levels of security to the data, based on the security levels associated with the devices that submitted the data.

Abstract: Configuration data for an integrated circuit may be generated using logic design equipment to implement a logic design on the integrated circuit. The equipment may perform multiple rounds of incremental physical synthesis, incremental timing analysis, and incremental legalization operations. Each round may involve performing multiple different physical synthesis transforms on the design that are individually rejected until transforms that satisfy legality constraints and improve timing for the logic design are found and incorporated into the netlist. The configuration data may then be generated using the netlist. In this way, the logic design may be incrementally altered and verified during the physical synthesis process. This prevents the need for rejecting or accepting an entire batch logic changes to the netlist even when only some of the changes are non-ideal, thus optimizing circuit performance as well as the compile time required to implement the logic design on the integrated circuit.
