Abstract: A method includes determining a cluster reliability of a computing cluster including a maximum computing capacity and representative of a reliability of the computing cluster when utilizing an entirety of the maximum computing capacity. The operations include receiving a provisioning request of the computing cluster including a threshold reliability of the computing cluster.

Based on the reserved computing capacity and the maximum computing capacity, the operations include determining an unreserved computing capacity of the computing cluster. The operations include provisioning the computing cluster for execution of a user workload. The user workload executes on the unreserved computing capacity.

Abstract: A multi-wavelength active marker includes a first light source emitting a first wavelength of light, a second light source emitting a second wavelength of light different from the first wavelength, and a converging light-combining waveguide that is arranged adjacent the first and the second light sources. The waveguide guides the light emitted from the first and second light sources to a diffuser for concurrent emission of both of the first and second wavelengths from the diffuser. The multi-wavelength active marker may be used in co-calibration of disparate camera systems, such as a motion capture camera system and a cinema camera, which are not sensitive to the same wavelengths for calibration purposes.

Abstract: Utility programs run on multiple mainframes to periodically monitor a list of started tasks that have been defined in metadata files as running on each mainframe. Some of the utility programs is largely driven by metadata, and filters programmed to manage an output stream for each started task, as the output stream is generated, while remaining agnostic as to an origin of the output stream. When problems are detected in the output stream, users are notified via alerts, along with a suggestion of what to do. This batch dashboard application can be used by anyone with mainframe started tasks that need to be monitored. Once alerted to a problem, the users can logon to the online dashboard for that same list of started tasks and take actions to research and fix the problems.
