Abstract: A system is provided that generates a capacity plan for a resource representing supply to meet demand based on minimizing a cost objective. The system generates demand scenarios by applying a stochastic process that factors in historical information, future goals, and uncertainty in demand. The system generates supply scenarios indicating supply over time for the resource by applying a stochastic process that factors in factors relating to quantity of supply units of the resource and uncertainty in supply. The system identifies a supply scenario that minimizes costs relating to delivery of supply at times other than the times at which supply is need to meet demand based on the demand scenarios. The supply scenario represents the capacity plan.

Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and computer-readable storage media for providing application results related to user intent with respect to a topic-of-interest are provided. A user search session is monitored and upon discerning a requisite level of user intent with respect to the topic-of-interest, applications residing on the user device that provide application results related to the user intent are determined. A request for the application results is communicated to the applications, and the applications results are received from at least a portion of the applications. The application results are integrated with a set of Web-based results; the results are ranked and are presented on a user interface.

Abstract: A browser toolbar displays contextual data from a search engine service for a webpage currently being displayed by a web browser. The browser toolbar identifies the URL of a webpage currently being displayed by a web browser. The browser toolbar provides an indication of the URL to a search engine service, which identifies an entity corresponding with the URL. The search engine service gathers data relevant to the entity and provides the relevant data to the browser toolbar, which displays information to the user to provide the user with contextual information about the entity corresponding with the URL.
