Abstract: Remote collaboration sessions may allow a local user to share their entire desktop or a single application with a remote user. By allowing each of a number of windows, but not all windows, to be selectively provided by the local computer to the remote computer, a more efficient collaboration session may be provided that does not require the local user to terminate sharing, when sharing a first application, then re-initiate sharing for the second application, just to switch between applications. Or, alternatively, alleviates the need to select the entire desktop that may comprise confidential information not to be shared. By allowing each, but not all, applications to be shared remotely and simultaneously, a remote user can be presented with relevant, but not excluded, application windows from the local computer.

Abstract: A marking onto a collaboration board, located in a first location, is detected. The marking includes the creation of one or more content elements on the collaboration board. Responsive to detecting the markings one or more content elements on the collaboration board are analyzed. A first content element of the one or more content elements is classified based on analyzing the one or more content elements. The first content element is classified as a first privileged content element. The first location of the collaboration board is scanned. The scanning is based on the classifying of the first privileged content element. An unauthorized person is identified based on scanning the first location. The unauthorized person is not permitted to view the collaboration board. A security response is performed on the collaboration board regarding the one or more content elements. The security response is performed responsive to identifying the unauthorized person.

Abstract: A system, computer program product, and method to deriving a cost model and dynamic adjustment of the derived model responsive to dynamic modification of one or more of the resources in a hybrid shared resource environment. Resources and corresponding configuration information are collected while monitoring runtime utilization of resource performance. As changes to the resources are discovered, the changes are subject to an assessment. A hybrid cost model is derived and configured to account for the one or more resources. The derived hybrid cost model is leveraged to conduct a multi-dimensional resource evaluation of the assessed changed configuration information. Responsive to the multi-dimensional evaluation, a generated resource utilization optimization of the one or more resources is selectively implemented.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments utilize a layer three and/or layer four protocol to collect physical layer properties along a multi-hop network path between a source node and a destination node. The use of a layer three or layer four protocol provides an ability to span multiple links or networks between the source node and destination node, while also collecting the physical layer properties. Once physical layer properties along a network path can be understood, decisions relating to the configuration of the network path and/or whether to communicate via the network path are improved.

Abstract: A method for evaluating a subject for a biological condition associated with metal metabolism includes sampling positions along a biological sample of the subject to obtain several ion samples. Each ion sample corresponds to a position on the biological sample and each position represents an amount of growth of the biological sample. The obtained ions are analyzed with a mass spectrometer thereby obtaining a plurality of traces. Each such trace represents a concentration of a corresponding elemental isotope, in a plurality of elemental isotopes, over time. A set of features is derived from the traces. Each feature is determined by a variation of a single isotope or a combination of isotopes in the plurality of traces. The set of features is inputted into a trained classifier to obtain a probability that the subject has the biological condition associated with metal metabolism.
