  • Patent number: 11539924
    Abstract: Multiple projector-enabled content targeting using diffraction grating is provided. A projector of a plurality of projectors in a display device is selected to project a particular color of a plurality of different colors at a predefined intensity to a content slot in a set of content slots via a corresponding diffraction grating to provide different content in full color images to respective viewers of a set of viewers at different viewing angles relative to the display device simultaneously. The different content is projected in the full color images to the respective viewers at the different viewing angles simultaneously using each particular projector of the plurality of projectors to project its particular color of the plurality of different colors at the predefined intensity to each particular content slot of the set of content slots via each corresponding diffraction grating.

  • Patent number: 11093610
    Abstract: Mitigating threats to container-based workloads is provided by a process that includes detecting an attack against a container hosting environment that includes active and reserve container pools. The attack poses a potential threat of contamination to hosted containers. Based on detecting the attack, the process identifies a time-to-contamination, taken as an amount of time for an active container of the active container pool to become contaminated as a result of the attack. The process provisions new containers into the reserve container pool at a determined rate that is based on the identified time-to-contamination, and continuously removes, from the active container pool, active containers servicing the workload and concurrently deploys reserve containers from the reserve container pool to the active container pool to replace the removed active containers and takeover servicing the workload.

  • Patent number: 11080632
    Abstract: A method and system. The method includes receiving datacenter context input information, processing the datacenter context input information, and outputting the cost-versus-datacenter-quantity information. The processing the datacenter context input information may generate the cost-versus-datacenter-quantity information. The cost-versus-datacenter-quantity information is a total datacenter cost to run an application versus a quantity of datacenters used to run the application.

  • Patent number: 11042366
    Abstract: Managing container applications by providing a registry of managed container base images, each managed container base image wrapped to include an injection point, determining that a managed container base image includes a vulnerability, and creating a patch script to address the vulnerability. Managing container applications further includes inserting the patch script at the injection point and issuing a pull command for an application using the managed container base image, to a container orchestration tool.

  • Patent number: 10929878
    Abstract: A method of identifying targeted content includes deploying a plurality of internet bots configured to interact with content sources using predetermined patterns and profiles, wherein each individual internet bot of the plurality of internet bots includes at least one characteristic that is unique relative to the rest of the plurality of internet bots, collecting cause and effect data related to cause and effect of user interactions with content sources, receiving the cause and effect data collected by the plurality of internet bots, correlating user interactions with content sources using the cause and effect data collected by the plurality of internet bots, and identifying, how content is targeted to users by content sources from the correlating.

  • Patent number: 10911395
    Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable tailoring messages to enhance sharing and resonance based on a community fingerprint and a key influencer. More specifically, a message to be directed to members of an online social community is received. Members of the social community who influence the social community and their likelihood to re-share messages are identified. A re-share fingerprint for the identified influencer is generated that maps the influencer's likelihood to re-share content. A communications fingerprint of the community is also created using an amalgamation of the communication patterns and styles of individual members of the community. The received message is optimized to most effectively target the message to the online social community and to solicit a desired response from the community based on the community communication fingerprint. The optimized message can then be forwarded to the online social community.

  • Patent number: 10623346
    Abstract: A computer-implemented for delivering tailored content to an individual includes: obtaining, by a computer system, communications of the individual; obtaining, by the computer system, a communication fingerprint for the individual based on analysis of the communications of the individual; tailoring, by the computer system, a message to the individual using the communication fingerprint; and delivering the message to the individual. Using sentiment analysis combined with a unique communication fingerprint for an individual advantageously provides for a more tailored, and thus more effective, communication to the individual.
