Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an application control method and an apparatus, a terminal, and a computer-readable storage medium. The application control method includes: configure a temporary unfreezing rule for an application currently frozen in response to freezing a running application; temporarily unfreeze a frozen application in response to monitoring that the frozen application currently meets the temporary unfreezing rule corresponding to the frozen application; and re-freeze a temporarily unfrozen application in response to monitoring that the temporarily unfrozen application currently meets a re-freezing rule corresponding to the temporarily unfrozen application.

In one embodiment, a method includes generating a handle that references a checkpoint for a service, sending the handle to the service, wherein the handle is configured to be used by the service to store one or more states of the service in the checkpoint, determining that the service needs to be restarted, restarting the service, accessing the handle for the checkpoint, and sending the handle for the checkpoint to the restarted service, wherein the handle for the checkpoint is configured to be used by the restarted service to restore the one or more states.

The present disclosure is directed to a system and method for viewing jobs managed by heterogeneous job schedulers on heterogeneous computing systems. Organizations often rely on workflow schedulers or job schedulers to execute and manage their workflow pipelines. However, different departments within a large organization may rely on different job scheduling applications for managing their workflows. Without the capability to monitor and manage all or a subset of jobs running on heterogeneous job scheduling applications across the organization at the same time, organizations lack the insight they need to make their workflow pipeline more efficient. The disclosed system and method allows users to monitor jobs or computer applications, including details regarding job execution and service level agreements, running on heterogeneous job schedulers across the organization.

An application may be migrated from a first to a second computing system. Configuration parameter values associated with executing the migrated application on the second computing system may be determined by computational optimization based on configuration parameter values and/or monitored performance metrics associated with the application on the first computing system. Configuration parameter values associated with executing the migrated application on the second computing system may be determined by performing simulations of the migrated application configured for execution on the second computing system based on multiple sets of configuration parameter values, monitoring performance metrics associated with the simulations, and performing computational optimization based on the multiple sets of configuration parameter values and monitored performance metrics associated with the simulations. Configuration parameter values associated with executing the migrated application on the second computing system may be updated based on monitored performance metrics associated with executing the migrated application.

A multiprocessor system and method for swapping applications executing on the multiprocessor system are disclosed. The plurality of applications may include a first application and a plurality of other applications. The first application may be dynamically swapped with a second application. The swapping may be performed without stopping the plurality of other applications. The plurality of other applications may continue to execute during the swapping to perform a real-time operation and process real-time data. After the swapping, the plurality of other applications may continue to execute with the second application, and at least a subset of the plurality of other applications may communicate with the second application to perform the real time operation and process the real time data.

Disclosed is an electronic device that includes a display that outputs execution screens of a plurality of applications, a memory that stores the plurality of applications, and a processor electrically connected with the display and the memory. The processor retrieves a history of one or more applications among the plurality of applications that were previously executed in the electronic device, in response to a user input detected by the electronic device and outputs the history on the display based on information about the one or more applications and information about layouts of execution screens of the one or more applications. If at least one of the one or more applications is selected from the history, the processor outputs an execution screen of the selected application on the display according to the corresponding layout.

According to one embodiment, an evaluation device includes one or more processors. The one or more processors performs detecting a process of activating a hardware of a system LSI from an application, interrupting execution of the application when the process of activating the hardware is detected, setting, as a load, a memory access pattern of the hardware estimated by simulating performance of the hardware, adding the load to resume the execution of the application, and collecting a profile related to a memory access during the execution of the application, including the load when the execution of the application is resumed.

A method for enabling a task management interface includes receiving an instruction for enabling the task management interface, displaying the task management interface in response to the instruction for enabling the task management interface, where the task management interface includes a preview interface of at least one application program and an icon corresponding to at least one function of the application program, receiving an operation instruction for the icon, and switching the application program corresponding to the icon to a foreground and executing the function in response to the operation instruction.

Characteristics associated with a device are received from the device. Firmware for the device is generated based on the received characteristics.
