Abstract: An efficiency engine identifies container sizes for containers of a workload and allocates the containers across server clusters and nodes based on peak resource usage requirements of the containers. Runtime feedback signals are generated from monitors within the containers indicative of a quality of service and resource usage. A decision engine can identify a bin packing action to take based upon the runtime feedback signals, and a control plane can perform the identified bin packing actions to adjust bin packing based upon the runtime feedback signals. Also, adaptive adjustment can be performed based on feedback signals and using a prediction engine.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a fully bio-based, highly filled lignin-rubber masterbatch, a method for preparing same, and use thereof. The lignin-rubber masterbatch is prepared by a method comprising: (1) reacting a lignin, acetic acid, and oleic acid in the presence of a catalyst to give a modified lignin; and (2) blending the modified lignin and a rubber, and granulating to give the lignin-rubber masterbatch. The highly filled lignin-rubber masterbatch prepared by the present invention can replace the conventional reinforcing agent carbon black and provide a better reinforcing effect and higher mechanical properties for rubber materials. The present invention can also reduce the rubber content of the rubber composite materials while retaining the mechanical properties, thus featuring cost-efficiency.

Abstract: A method and a processing device are provided for predicting standpipe pressure. A Bayesian linear regressor is initialized. Priors for the Bayesian linear regressor are initialized based on previous drilling operations that used a same bottom hole assembly. Measurement data associated with drilling a well is received in real time. An online Bayesian linear regressor update is generated using QR decomposition for a model. Responsive to determining that at least some coefficients violate physical rules, the at least some of the coefficients are set to a respective default value that is either zero or a positive value. Coefficients and uncertainty are updated based on at least one of the online Bayesian linear regressor update and the setting of at least some of the coefficients. The model is then visualized. Visualization helps a user identify whether the learned model makes sense.
