A method and a device for managing a node includes: initiating, by an application program, a first request by calling an interface function, where the first request is used to perform an operation on a feature node in a kernel; searching, based on a keyword of the interface function, a table used for node management for an entry corresponding to the feature node, where the entry includes a node identifier of the feature node and a user handle identifier of the feature node; and performing, by the user program, the operation on the feature node based on the user handle identifier. A program running in user space can be prevented from directly accessing a feature node in kernel space, thereby improving system security.

Disclosed are various examples for platform independent graphics processing unit (GPU) profiles for more efficient utilization of GPU resources. A virtual machine configuration can be identified to include a platform independent graphics computing requirement. Hosts can be identified as available in a computing environment based on the platform independent graphics computing requirement. The virtual machine can be placed on a host based on a consideration of host priority.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for configuring a software application through a remote configuration service. An example method generally includes receiving, from a remote configuration service, a declarative construct. Generally, the declarative construct includes a definition of a workflow in an application to be executed within a player application deployed on a client device. Information associated with the definition of the workflow is extracted by parsing the declarative construct according to a schema defining a format of the declarative construct. The workflow is executed in the player application based on the extracted information defining functionality of the workflow.

A query operation is performed to obtain information for a select entity of a computing environment. The information includes boost information of one or more boost features currently available for the select entity. The one or more boost features are to be used to temporarily adjust one or more processing attributes of the select entity. The boost information obtained from performing the query operation is provided in an accessible location to be used to perform one or more actions to facilitate processing in the computing environment.

A method, computer system, and computer program product are provided for modifying a web application at runtime. A single-page web application is loaded by a web browser of a client, wherein the single-page web application exchanges data between the client and a server. An extension for the single-page web application is obtained. The extension is applied to the single-page web application, wherein applying the extension adds a new feature, or modifies an existing feature, of the single-page web application without reloading the single-page web application.

An apparatus includes a plurality of processing cores, and a memory including a plurality of task queues corresponding to the plurality of processing cores, respectively, wherein at least one processing core of the plurality of processing cores is configured, by executing a scheduler, to determine execution of task rescheduling, based on states of the plurality of processing cores, tasks stored in the plurality of task queues, and at least one reference value, and, when the task rescheduling is executed, move a first task stored in a first task queue to a second task queue.

A method for selectively generating suggested default values for I/O configurations is provided. The method identifies a first selection including a first input value for an I/O configuration. The method determines a set of remaining input options based on the first selection. The method accesses a set of decision trees based on the set of remaining input options and selects a decision tree of the set of decision trees based on the first input value. The method generates a suggested value for a subsequent selection for the I/O configuration and causes presentation of the suggested value and a user interface element representing the subsequent selection.

A system component having a configurable communication behavior. The system component includes at least one interface for a data bus for the communication with at least one further system component. A defined communications protocol for the transmitting and receiving of data and bus commands is used on the data bus. The communications protocol provides that the at least one further system component queries the communication behavior of the system component via the data bus to adapt its own communication behavior to that of the system component. The system component includes a register for configuration data that define the communication behavior of the system component on the data bus, the register being connected to the data bus so that the configuration data stored in the register are available on the data bus. The function scope of the system component allows for different communication behaviors.

According to one general aspect, a computing device may include an application configured to create a tab in a context of a window, and a window manager configured to register the tab with a first UI element registry. The window manager may be configured to receive, over a network, at least a portion of a second UI element registry from a secondary window manager of a secondary computing device. The portion of the second UI element registry may identify a remote tab previously registered with the secondary window manager. The window manager may be configured to cause a display to provide a graphical arrangement of the tab and the remote tab.

One example technique includes receiving a request for accessing a file from a container process. In response to receiving the request, the technique includes querying a mapping table corresponding to the container process to locate an entry corresponding to a file identifier of the requested file. The entry also includes data identifying a file location on the storage device from which the requested file is accessible. The technique further includes retrieving a copy of the requested file according to the file location identified by the data in the located entry in the mapping table and providing the retrieved copy of the requested file to the container process, thereby allowing the container process to access the requested file.
