Abstract: Processes, devices, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for managing the display of advertisements on a web page. Each may be configured for steps that include determining the length of a portion of web page content, assigning a priority to each of a set of advertisements for display on a web page, selecting advertisements for display on a web page, determining the difference between said length of said portion of web page content and the cumulative length of said selected advertisements, and if the length of the advertisement exceeds said difference then omitting the advertisement and selecting another.

Abstract: Translating user interface sounds into 3D audio comprises: receiving an audio request call from a process relating to a user interface event; converting the audio request call into a position in 3D audio space representative of the process from which the call has been received; and playing a corresponding sound in a surround sound system in the position in 3D audio space. Each open application in a graphical user interface may be provided with a sound space, in the 3D audio space, from which any event sounds are played.

Abstract: Embodiments include methods, and computing systems, and computer program products for automatic discovery and classification of Java virtual machines running on a logical partition of a computing system. Aspects include: examining, via a service request block (SRB) routine, each of address spaces to identify one or more address spaces eligible to operate a Java virtual machine, retrieve, by a Java virtual machine management system via a CSVINFO macro call to each of address space control blocks on the logical partition of the computing system, in a predetermined interval, each of the of Java virtual machines corresponds to one of the address spaces, discovering, through CSVINFO retrieved, one or more Java virtual machines running on the logical partition of the computing system, and classifying, through Content Directory Entries examined using the CSVINFO macro, the one or more Java virtual machines discovered.

Abstract: In response to a test case error generated by execution of a test case against a code build, a source code segment that caused the test case error is identified by a defect monitor. The identified source code segment is linked to the test case that generated the test case error. The linked source code segment is monitored for code changes. A determination is made as to whether a test case re-execution criterion associated with the test case has been satisfied based upon a detected code change of the linked source code segment. An indication to re-execute the test case is generated in response to determining that the test case re-execution criterion associated with the test case has been satisfied.

Abstract: Providing advanced notification of workload. A reference to a second website provided to a first website for posting by the first website can be identified. Information associated with the first website can be analyzed to determine whether the reference to the second website will cause an increase in workload to the second website. Responsive to determining the reference to the second website will cause the increase in workload to the second website, an alert can be communicated to the second website or an entity that manages the second website, the alert indicating that the increase in workload to the second website will occur.

Abstract: In response to a test case error generated by execution of a test case against a code build, a source code segment that caused the test case error is identified by a defect monitor. The identified source code segment is linked to the test case that generated the test case error. The linked source code segment is monitored for code changes. A determination is made as to whether a test case re-execution criterion associated with the test case has been satisfied based upon a detected code change of the linked source code segment. An indication to re-execute the test case is generated in response to determining that the test case re-execution criterion associated with the test case has been satisfied.

Abstract: Operating a data processing system comprises defining a plurality of profiles, each profile comprising a list of one or more applications; receiving a defined user input requesting a switch from a first profile to a second profile; hibernating the (or each) application listed in the first profile; and recalling from hibernation the (or each) application listed in the second profile. Preferably, a graphical user interface is adjusted to reflect a change in status of each application that has been hibernated or recalled from hibernation.
