Within project management the tracking of actions for project meetings is undertaken through templates within standard office productivity tools which in common with dedicated meeting minute software and meeting software tools stand independent of project management software tools and manufacturing resource planning tools. The result is that users typically have actions arising from multiple projects each of which have multiple discrete and separate meetings occurring at different frequencies such that they must access a variety of documents in different tools to track meetings, actions given, action status etc. Accordingly, it would be beneficial to provide enterprises and users with a meeting management/action tracking software tool that supports interfaces with project management tools, manufacturing resource planning tools, customer management tools etc. so that they can obtain a centralized perspective of their actions across multiple projects and access real time information within meetings.

A method and an activity tracking device for controlling clock gating of a data processing block is provided. The processing block is one of a plurality of data processing blocks of a circuitry system interconnected by a streaming data bus. The activity tracking device receives a busy indication from processing units and streaming data bus segments of the data processing block to keep track of the data transfer and processing activity therein, and has an output connected to a clock gate at the root of the local clock distribution network of the data processing block to gate off the clock of the data processing block when an idle condition is detected, and to recover the clock when a wake-up condition is detected. This provides a low complexity way of automatic clock gating in SoC designs, and generally a way to reduce power consumption of electronic devices.

Techniques are disclosed for managing session activity of SSO access across multiple data centers. Session activity of SSO access is managed across multiple geographically disperse computing systems clustered together to form a multi-data center (MDC) system. A first data center in the MDC system may implement session adoption to manage an SSO session of the user in the MDC system. Information about subsequent sessions established by other data centers may be adopted by the first data center. The first data center may obtain session activity data from each session that is adopted for the user. The session activity may be used to determine whether SSO session is active for the user across data centers in the MDC system. Authorization to access a resource at any data center in the MDC system may be granted based on the status of the SSO session using session adoption among the data centers.

An activity tracking system is configured to receive an activity report identifying a fitness-related action that is reported to have been completed by a participant. Upon receipt of the activity report, the activity reporting system verifies the workout, e.g., by obtaining data that can be used by the activity reporting system to determine whether the activity report represents actual activity as reported by the participant or, in the alternative, suspect activity. Based on the data obtained from the one or more data sources and the information in the activity report, the activity tracking system determines a probability that the activity report represents legitimate fitness activity. This probability determination may then be output or reported to other systems (e.g., fitness history databases, websites, and the like, third party systems (e.g., incentive systems, reward systems, and the like).
