  • Patent number: 10547673
    Abstract: Technical solutions are described for optimizing operation of a server cluster. An example method includes receiving a job request that executes using a set of data blocks, the job request being associated with an expected completion time. The cluster server is used to identify a set of replica servers, wherein each server from the set of replica servers contains the set of data blocks. In response to each server from the set of replica servers estimating a completion time for the job request that is more than the expected completion time, a new server is initiated, the set of data blocks is relocated from a first server from the set of replica servers to the new server, and the job request is allocated to the new server.

  • Patent number: 10338047
    Abstract: A mechanism is provided for detecting air-pollution anomalies. A historical air-pollution pattern is identified for each of a plurality of air-pollution monitoring stations. For each of the plurality of air-pollution monitoring stations, responsive to receiving real-time data from a particular air-pollution monitoring station, the real-time data is compared to the historical air-pollution pattern associated with the particular air-pollution monitoring station. A density difference value is generated based on the comparison of the real-time data to the historical air-pollution pattern associated with the particular air-pollution monitoring station and a determination is made as to whether the density difference value is greater than a predetermined confidence threshold.
