Patent number: 11048620Abstract: Aspects capture test coverage in a distributed system, wherein a processor instigates execution of a unique hypertext transfer request protocol test case within a distributed system of different, networked servers. The header of the unique test case includes a unique name for the unique test case, and the distributed system servers are each configured to, in response to processing a test case, generate a time-stamped log entry that includes header data for the processed test case and a uniform resource locator address of the processing server. The processor thus maps the unique test case to a subset of the distributed system servers as endpoint servers of the unique test case, in response to determining that the uniform resource locator addresses of each of the subset endpoint servers are listed within generated log entries of the endpoint servers in association with the unique test case name.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2019Date of Patent: June 29, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Adam G. Archer, Herman S. Badwal, Miran Badzak, Robin Y. Bobbitt, Mark T. Duquette, Christopher M. Lee-Shanok, Robert Retchless, Lauren H. Schaefer, Christopher N. Taylor

Patent number: 10701019Abstract: Aspects provide message queue management as a function of processing time estimation, wherein a processor stores a message directed to a user from a messaging server in a distraction queue, and predicts a processing time required by the user to process the received message as a function of sender identity or of an identified message topic or type. The processor increments a processing time counter value for the distraction queue with the predicted processing time of the message, and notifies the user of the received message and all other messages currently saved to the distraction queue in response to determining that the incremented processing time counter value meets a threshold value.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2019Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Adam G. Archer, Herman S. Badwal, Robin Y. Bobbitt, Christopher M. Lee-Shanok, Robert Retchless, Lauren H. Schaefer, Christopher N. Taylor

Publication number: 20170046507Abstract: In an approach to user authentication by facial recognition, a computing device repeatedly detects the faces of users within the field of view of an input device. The computing device determines the presence or absence of the registered user within the field of view of the input device. The computing device determines the presence or absence of unregistered users within the field of view of the input device. Determining that only the registered user is present, the computing device presents data in an unrestricted manner. Determining that an unregistered user(s) is present, the computing device presents data in a restricted manner.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 10, 2015Publication date: February 16, 2017Inventors: Adam G.
