Abstract: Systems and methods are presented to provide a first machine learning model to a collaboration platform. The systems and methods receive a second machine learning model from the collaboration platform that indicates the second machine learning model is based on the first machine learning model. The systems and methods test the second machine learning model using criteria corresponding to the first machine learning model to determine whether the second machine learning model is valid. In turn, the systems and methods publish the second machine learning model to a repository in response to determining that the second machine learning model is valid.

Abstract: Techniques for workload management in cloud computing infrastructures are provided. In one aspect, a method for allocating computing resources in a datacenter cluster is provided. The method includes the steps of: creating multiple, parallel schedulers; and automatically selecting a resource allocation method for each of the schedulers based on one or more of a workload profile, user requirements, and a state of the datacenter cluster, wherein an optimistic resource allocation method is selected for at least a first one or more of the schedulers and a pessimistic resource allocation method is selected for at least a second one or more of the schedulers. Due to optimistic resource allocation conflicts may arise. Methods to resolve such conflicts are also provided.

Abstract: A manufacture for encoding information from which a position of an optical pen tip can be derived, said manufacture includes a display medium having a supporting base and upon which is encoded a two dimensional code pattern that is continuously arranged on an entire surface of the supporting base; wherein the pattern is formed by a sequence of narrow parallel bands, including at least two parallel lines, of which one line is a base line the remaining lines are secondary lines; wherein each narrow parallel band includes a sequence of dots, the dots being arranged in a pre-determined position in order to represent a number at a selected number base.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a digital TV receptor system comprising a user interface for integrated access to linear multimedia content such as, for example, digital TV channels transmitted by land, satellite or cable TV broadcasters, “multi-cast” or live streams transmitted by data networks or over the Internet, as well as on demand or non-linear multimedia content, such as, for example, contents of Internet services and/or multimedia applications in a digital TV reception apparatus having support for playback of such multimedia content, allowing the user to navigate through linear and non-linear content in a single list and in a transparent manner, in such a way as to present non-linear content as if such content were also TV channels.

Abstract: A digital whiteboard system for enabling a user thereof to write at a preferred position includes a digital whiteboard configured to cooperate with a computer, said digital whiteboard, in operation, being divided into a plurality of virtual panels; wherein the digital whiteboard locates tools and menu bar; wherein the digital whiteboard is configured to allow a user to move a virtual panel upwards or downwards by dragging a continuous scroll bar; and wherein the virtual panel moves in the same direction as the direction in which the scroll bar is dragged.
