System and method for managing virtual servers

A management capability is provided for a virtual computing platform. In one example, this platform allows interconnected physical resources such as processors, memory, network interfaces and storage interfaces to be abstracted and mapped to virtual resources (e.g., virtual mainframes, virtual partitions). Virtual resources contained in a virtual partition can be assembled into virtual servers that execute a guest operating system (e.g., Linux). In one example, the abstraction is unique in that any resource is available to any virtual server regardless of the physical boundaries that separate the resources. For example, any number of physical processors or any amount of physical memory can be used by a virtual server even if these resources span different nodes. A virtual computing platform is provided that allows for the creation, deletion, modification, control (e.g., start, stop, suspend, resume) and status (i.e., events) of the virtual servers which execute on the virtual computing platform and the management capability provides controls for these functions. In a particular example, such a platform allows the number and type of virtual resources consumed by a virtual server to be scaled up or down when the virtual server is running. For instance, an administrator may scale a virtual server manually or may define one or more policies that automatically scale a virtual server. Further, using the management API, a virtual server can monitor itself and can scale itself up or down depending on its need for processing, memory and I / O resources. For example, a virtual server may monitor its CPU utilization and invoke controls through the management API to allocate a new processor for itself when its utilization exceeds a specific threshold. Conversely, a virtual server may scale down its processor count when its utilization falls. Policies can be used to execute one or more management controls. More specifically, a management capability is provided that allows policies to be defined using management object's properties, events and / or method results. A management policy may also incorporate external data (e.g., an external event) in its definition. A policy may be triggered, causing the management server or other computing entity to execute an action. An action may utilize one or more management controls. In addition, an action may access external capabilities such as sending notification e-mail or sending a text message to a telephone paging system. Further, management capability controls may be executed using a discrete transaction referred to as a “job.” A series of management controls may be assembled into a job using one or management interfaces. Errors that occur when a job is executed may cause the job to be rolled back, allowing affected virtual servers to return to their original state.

Program planning management system

A data processing system provides development of complex schedule plans under user control by using sorting and grouping processing to interface between a relational database and a scheduler application. The sorting and grouping processing provides for user-interactive editing of data in the database by presentation of groupings of activities developed in accordance with attributes of the activities concurrently with activities which are not included in a group. Editing of the group based on the presentation of other activities allows the user to apply acquired knowledge and understanding of the subtleties and dynamics of the activities and to make business decisions which therefore do not need to be represented in the scheduler application. Changes to data in the database are logged in a notebook or scratch-pad store so that data may be returned to its original or any prior state.

Persistent snapshot methods

A persistent snapshot is taken and maintained in accordance with a novel method and system for extended periods of time using only a portion of a computer readable medium of which the snapshot is taken. Multiple snapshots can be taken in succession at periodic intervals and maintained practically indefinitely. The snapshots are maintained even after powering down and rebooting of the computer system. The state of the object of the snapshot for each snapshot preferably is accessible via a folder on volume of the snapshot. A restore of a file or folder may be accomplished by merely copying that file or folder from the snapshot folder to a current directory of the volume. Alternatively, the entire computer system may be restored to a previous snapshot state thereof. Snapshots that occurred after the state to which the computer is restored are not lost in the restore operation. Different rule sets and scenarios can be applied to each snapshot. Furthermore, each snapshot can be written to within the context of the snapshot and later restored to its pristine condition. Software for implementing the systems and methods of snapshots in accordance with the present invention may comprise firmware of a hard disk drive controller or a disk controller board or within the HDD casing itself. The present invention further comprises novel systems and methods in which the systems and methods of taking and maintaining snapshots are utilized in creating and managing temporal data stores, including temporal database management systems. The implications for data mining and exploration, data analysis, intelligence gathering, and artificial intelligence (just to name a few areas) are profound.

Data security system and method with parsing and dispersion techniques

ActiveUS7349987B2Ease overhead performanceHigh overhead performanceDigital data processing detailsUser identity/authority verificationOriginal dataInternet privacy
A data security having parsing and dispersion aspects enables the user to parse, disperse and reconstruct the original, plain text data or data object, thereby enabling secure storage of the data. The original data may be maintained in its original state, encrypted or it may be destroyed. For example, financial data maintained by an institute, stored as is customary, be parsed with an algorithm, the parsed segments dispersed off-site (that is, separated and stored in extract and remainder stores or computer memories) and away from the financial institute, and, upon appropriate security clearance, the dispersed data can be reconstructed to duplicate the data. Large distribution of parsed data is contemplated by the system. The original data remains stable, operable and immediately useful in its customary storage location (or alternatively destroyed). The secured dispersed data is a back-up of the original data.

Cooperative control method for multi-intersection signal lamp based on Q value migration depth reinforcement learning

The invention provides a cooperative control method for multi-intersection signal lamp based on Q value migration depth reinforcement learning, and belongs to the crossing field of machine learning and intelligent traffic. A multi-intersection traffic network of an area is modeled into a multi-Agent system firstly. Each Agent simultaneously considers the influence of adjacent Agent actions at themost recent moment in the learning strategy process, so that multiple Agents can cooperatively conduct signal lamp control of multi-intersection. Each Agent adaptively controls one intersection through a deep Q network, and a network input is a discrete traffic state code of the original state information of the corresponding intersection. An optimal action Q value of the adjacent Agent at the most recent moment is transferred to the loss function of the network in the process of learning. The cooperative control method for multi-intersection signal lamp based on the Q value migration depth reinforcement learning can improve the traffic flow of the regional road network and the utilization rate of the road and can reduce the queuing length of the vehicle to relieve the traffic jam, and hasno limitation on the structure of each intersection.

Managing filesystem versions

A system and method for managing logical versions of a filesystem made through a near-instantaneous copy process is provided. Each logical version of the filesystem, including the primary version, is assigned a unique epoch number or other identifying value, and each filesystem object is assigned two epoch numbers that define the space of logical versions for which the object exists. A list of all valid epoch numbers are maintained in a version table. The near-instantaneous creation of a logical version of the filesystem requires inserting a unique epoch number entry in the version table (106) and the next epoch number to the new logical version. An original state of the system is preserved through the use of a copy-on-write procedure for filesystem objects that are reference by that logical filesystem version (120). Accordingly, filesystem versions are maintained and original states of previous states of the logical filesystem versions are preserved.

Programmable backward jump instruction prediction mechanism

A programmable backward jump instruction prediction mechanism includes a backward branch prediction queues (BBQ) for assisting an embedded processor to overcome an inevitable control hazard caused in a pipeline execution for a conditional branch instruction. A large percentage of nested loops exists in an application program executed by the embedded processor, and thus when the backward branch encounters a nested loop, the behavior of branch of a nested loop is similar to a queue that will automatically restore its original status; the whole nested loop iterates at a center and repeats the execution of innermost loops (Queue Front) and leaves the prediction miss to the next backward branch (an outer loop, Queue Next); once if an outer loop hits a branchy, the inner loop will repeat the branch ( and returns to the innermost loop Queue Front). Since the program counter (PC) and the branch address of the queue can be used for determining whether or not the program execution is still in a nested loop or whether or not a jump is from a backward branch by the target address of the branch instruction. It is only necessary to predict an execution and compare a specific branch address in the queue for each time, and thus the queue structure needs not to store too many instructions or quickly compare a large number of data by the associative memory technique. The hardware is very simple, but the effect is excellent. According to the simulation analysis of the application program, it is discovered that the average prediction accuracy is up to 82% and some applications may even have an accuracy of 99%. The hardware mechansim of the invention features a low cost and a low level of complexity, and thus fully satifying the requirements for low cost, low power consumption, and high performance / cost ratio of an embedded processor.
