The present disclosure provides a technical solution related to tagging user behavior data. The processing device and method may determine and tag user behavior data according to an application to which the user behavior data belong based on analysis on an inheritance relationship between tasks associated with the user behavior data, so as to facilitate selectively deleting the user behavior data later.

A method of software launch regression testing comprises monitoring an operational parameter of an existing application running on a plurality of client devices and determining a probability interval from the operational parameter of the existing application. A candidate update application is then launched to a subset of the plurality of client devices. The method then proceeds with monitoring a corresponding operational parameter of the candidate update version running on the subset of client devices, determining if the corresponding operational parameter of the candidate update version falls within the probability interval, and, based on the probability interval falling within the probability interval, providing a testing pass notification.

Computing devices with dual computing architectures for use in a subscription model are disclosed. For example, a computing device comprises a first computing architecture comprising a first set of computing resources dedicated to executing one or more first computing tasks, wherein the one or more first computing tasks are associated with a subscription-based user of the computing device. The computing device further comprises a second computing architecture comprising a second set of computing resources dedicated to executing one or more second computing tasks, wherein the one or more second computing tasks are associated with a subscription-based provider of the computing device.

An application management server includes: a communications unit to receive status information regarding applications installed in an image forming device; and a processor to prevent billing for an application that is classified, based on the status information, as not having a log of normal operation or as being incapable of normal operation.

The present invention includes embodiments of systems and methods for addressing the interdependencies that result from integrating the computing resources of multiple hardware and software providers. The integrated, multi-provider cloud-based platform of the present invention employs abstraction layers for communicating with and integrating the resources of multiple back-end hardware providers, multiple software providers and multiple license servers. These abstraction layers and associated functionality free users not only from having to implement and configure provider-specific protocols, but also from having to address interdependencies among selected hardware, software and license servers on a job-level basis or at other levels of granularity.

A system and method for media content management include creating, via a digital vault, a container file comprising media content submitted by a user and content metadata; verifying, via the digital vault, a completeness of the content metadata associated with the media content in the container file; classifying, via the digital vault, the container file based on the completeness of the media content; and capturing, via the digital vault, event metadata when a second user gains access to the container file, the event metadata comprising identification of the second user, an activation timestamp, a duration of access, portions of the container file accessed, and changes to the container file.

The present disclosure relates to a monitoring frequency setting method and device. The method includes that: a usage log of a controlled device is acquired; and a monitoring frequency of the controlled device is adjusted according to the usage log.

Blockchain-based methods and devices for pre-exchanging available resource quotas are disclosed. An example of method comprises: selecting, by a management node of a blockchain network, an object node as a pre-exchange node according to a pre-selection rule; determining, by the management node for the pre-exchange node, a resource quota; generating, by the management node, a target smart contract based on the resource quota, wherein the target smart contract is executable to deduct virtual resources corresponding to the resource quota from future increments of virtual resources of the pre-exchange node stored on a blockchain that is on the blockchain network; and storing, by the management node, the target smart contract on the blockchain.
