Abstract: A system is provided. The system includes a computing device by which first and second commands are inputted, first and second resources disposed in communication with the computing device to be receptive of the first command and responsive to the first command with first and second energy demands in first and second response times, respectively and a managing unit. The managing unit is disposed in communication with the computing device to be receptive of the first and second commands and with the first and second resources to allocate tasks associated with the first command to one of the first and second resources. The tasks are allocated in accordance with the second command and the second command is based on the first and second energy demands and the first and second response times.

Abstract: A redundant power supply configuration for a data center is provided. A method includes receiving instructions to operate power supplies at a high current mode. An individual current for each of the power supplies is calculated to total a high current at the high current mode. The power supplies are operated at the high current mode to provide the high current at the high current mode. In response to operation at the high current mode being complete, the power supplies are operated at a normal mode to provide a normal current at the normal current mode.

Abstract: A datacenter schedules and executes requests to conserve energy. The datacenter uses an event-based opportunistic approach to schedule and run the requests, which provides energy efficiency. The requests are hierarchically batched and sent to the datacenter for scheduling and execution. They are selectively sent over low power links and selectively serviced by low power processors.

Abstract: An email client receives an urgent tagged email sent by said sender. An urgent timestamp is obtained based on a stored timestamp of a previous urgent tagged email by said sender. Based on the urgent timestamp, it is determined whether said urgent tagged email is allowed. The allowed determining comprises determining whether the urgent tagged email was received within a defined time interval and determining whether the previous timestamp is an allowed value. If the urgent tagged email is allowed, the urgent tagged email is displayed in the email client with an urgent response; a user evaluates whether the urgent tagged email was worth being tagged as urgent; if the urgent tagged email is not worth being tagged urgent, the stored timestamp is updated to the urgent tagged email date; and if the urgent tagged email is worth being tagged urgent, the stored timestamp is updated to the allowed value.

Abstract: A technique for wirelessly transmitting management data without cables in a data center is provided. Management data is obtained at a device in the data center. A wireless management data signal is generated from the management data. The wireless management data signal is configured to be transmitted at frequencies matching an ambient electromagnetic noise emitted by the data center, such that the wireless management data signal is masked in the ambient electromagnetic noise emitted by the data center. The wireless management data signal is wirelessly transmitted to another device.

Abstract: Mapping signal strength. A signal strength monitor is polled to measure signal strength. Each polled signal strength is associated with an associated geographical position. The signal strength and the associated geographical position is stored in memory. The stored signal strength and the stored associated geographical position is sent to a server. A coverage map of a geographical area is generated based on the stored signal strength and the associated geographical position in memory.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for staged user identifier deletion are provided. The method includes checking a status of a user identifier in response to a triggering event. In response to determining that the status of the user identifier indicates a marked for deletion status, a notification action is performed. The method also includes monitoring a time value to determine whether a time for deletion associated with the user identifier with the marked for deletion status has been reached, and automatically deleting the user identifier with the marked for deletion status in response to determining that the time for deletion has been reached.
