A storage device associated with a storage array may be identified. Information specifying an organization of data included in a data structure may be retrieved from the storage device. The data may be associated with characteristics of a plurality of data blocks of the storage device. A read operation or a write operation may be performed for the storage device based on the information specifying the organization of the data included in the data structure that is associated with the characteristics of the plurality of data blocks of the storage device.

The present invention relates to an electronic device and a control method thereof, wherein the electronic device is disposed in a transportation means, and can transmit, to a terminal apparatus connected thereto, screens which are respectively provided by multiple operating systems installed in the electronic device. The electronic device comprises: a communication unit for communicating with a terminal apparatus; a memory for storing multiple operating systems; and a processor for, when a user command is received from the terminal apparatus, controlling the communication unit to transmit a screen which is provided by an operating system selected according to the user command among the multiple operating systems, to the terminal apparatus.

Systems and methods of invoking functions of agents via digital assistant applications are provided. Each action-inventory can have an address template for an action by an agent. The address template can include a portion having an input variable used to execute the action. A data processing system can parse an input audio signal from a client device to identify a request and a parameter to be executed by the agent. The data processing system can select an action-inventory for the action corresponding to the request. The data processing system can generate, using the address template, an address. The address can include a substring having the parameter used to control execution of the action. The data processing system can direct an action data structure including the address to the agent to cause the agent to execute the action and to provide output for presentation.

Embodiments relate to a system, program product, and method for supporting elastic execution of a machine learning (ML) workload using application based profiling. A joint profile comprised of both ML application execution and resource usage data is generated. One or more feature(s) and signature(s) from the joint profile are identified, and a ML execution model for ML application execution and resource usage is built. The ML execution model leverages the feature(s) and signature(s) and is applied to provide one or more directives to subsequent application execution. The application of the ML execution model supports and enables the ML execution to elastically allocate and request one or more resources from a resource management component, with the elastic allocation supporting application execution.

A method, system, and apparatus to divide a computing job into micro-jobs and allocate the execution of the micro-jobs to times when needed resources comply with one or more idleness criteria is provided. The micro-jobs are executed on an ongoing basis, but only when the resources needed by the micro-jobs are not needed by other jobs. A software program utilizing this methodology may be run at all times while the computer is powered up without impacting the performance of other software programs running on the same computer system.

Disclosed herein is a method and system for dynamically integrating a plurality of BOTs. The method comprises creating the plurality of BOTs offering one or more automated services, wherein each of the plurality of BOTs has a common BOT structure comprising one or more field parameters. One or more predefined functions are assigned to each of the plurality of BOTs, wherein at least one of the one or more predefined functions comprises a function value. A maturity score for each of the plurality of BOTs is determined based on the one or more field parameters and the function value upon assigning the one or more predefined functions to each of the plurality of BOTs. Finally, the plurality of BOTs are integrated by synchronizing data amongst the plurality of BOTs based on the maturity score.

The performance of a device can be improved by intelligently terminating (or otherwise operationally adjusting) applications, services, or processes that the user is unlikely to access on the device. Information such as system event data and hint data can be obtained from various sources and fed to one or more predictor algorithms, which can determine the likelihood that a user will access various applications over a period of time. Other determinations can be made as well, such as which applications are most likely causing degradation in performance. Various termination actions can be selected to be performed, which can in some cases adjust the applications selected for termination by an operating system of the device. Once a set of actions is selected, those termination actions can be performed for the associated application(s) at least to the extent needed to restore health of the device.

At a managed control plane service, constituent services and operational requirements of an application are identified. In response to an end-user request directed to the application, contents of an inter-service request are generated at a resource selected by the managed control plane service for a first constituent service, and a response to the message is generated at another resource selected for a second constituent service. Tasks to be performed for the operational requirements are initiated by the managed control plane service.

Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for accelerating file I/O offload for a unikernel. The method, performed by the apparatus and server for accelerating file I/O offload for the unikernel, includes; executing, by the apparatus, an application in the unikernal and calling, by the thread of the application, a file I/O function; generating, by the unikernal, a file I/O offload request using the file I/O function; transmitting, by the unikernal, the file I/O offload request to Linux of the server; receiving, by Linux, the file offload request from the thread of the unikernel and processing, by Linux, the file I/O offload request; transmitting, by Linux, a file FO offload result for the file I/O I/O offload request to the unikernel; and delivering the file I/O offload result to the thread of the application.

Disclosed are various approaches for workflow service application networking. In some aspects, a workflow creation user interface is provided to create a networking workflow with at least one networking action. A networking action is specified for a first application to utilize application content from a second application. The networking action is verified based on a response to a test action request transmitted to the workflow service. The networking action is transmitted from the workflow application to a workflow service to cause the first application to utilize the application content from the second application according to the networking action.
