In a computing environment, a set of executing processes each having associated resources are provided. Aggregate resources for the computing environment include multiple different types of resources. A utilization level for each of the resources within the computing environment is evaluated to determine an unconsumed capacity for each of the resources below a utilization threshold. The utilization threshold is resource-dependent. An indication of at least a portion of unconsumed capacity for each of the resources below the utilization threshold is gathered. The unconsumed portion for each of the resources below the utilization threshold is exposed for consumption by other executing processes.

Various systems and methods of establishing and utilizing device management (DM) services in Internet of Things (IoT) networks and similar distributed network architectures, are described. In an example, RESTful messaging within IoT operational and resource models are used to establish, instantiate, and operate DM services having various roles within an IoT framework abstraction.

Methods and apparatus are described by which a rich, time-correlated information set is captured during automated testing of an application in a way that allows the application developer to understand the state of the application under test (AUT), the browser interacting with the AUT, and/or the device interacting with the AUT, as it/they changed over time. Mechanisms or features associated with browsers and/or device operating systems are exploited to capture such information, not only for the purpose of better understanding individual test runs, but also to enable the use of analytics over data sets.

A method of processing media content in Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) Network Based Media Processing (NBMP) includes obtaining a plurality of tasks for processing the media content, providing an interface between an NBMP workflow manager and a cloud manager by providing an NBMP Link application program interface (API), which links the plurality of tasks together, identifying an amount of network resources to be used for processing the media content, by using the NBMP Link API, and processing the media content in accordance with the identified amount of network resources.

An electronic device includes a first communication module, a second communication module, a display, a processor, and a memory storing instructions causing the processor to receive, from an external electronic device connected via the first communication module, first data related to a first screen on which resources of the external electronic device are configured in accordance with a graphic environment of the electronic device, output the first screen on the display, request the external electronic device to execute a selected first resource, receive, from the external electronic device, a request for obtaining second data related to the first resource, connect to the network via the second communication module to obtain the second data, transmit the obtained second data to the external electronic device, receive, from the external electronic device, third data related to a second screen configured using the second data, and output the second screen on the display.

Methods, apparatuses and computer program products for implementing dynamic retry of a resource service in a network system are provided. An example method may include: transmitting a first service request to the resource service, determining a first service availability indicator, calculating a first service availability estimate associated with the resource service based on the first service availability indicator, and determining whether to transmit a second service request based on the first service availability estimate. The example method may be repeated by an example apparatus continuously for each transmitted service request.

Disclosed are systems, methods and computer-readable media for controlling and managing the identification and provisioning of resources within an on-demand center as well as the transfer of workload to the provisioned resources. One aspect involves creating a virtual private cluster within the on-demand center for the particular workload from a local environment. A method of managing resources between a local compute environment and an on-demand environment includes detecting an event associated with a local compute environment and based on the detected event, identifying information about the local environment, establishing communication with an on-demand compute environment and transmitting the information about the local environment to the on-demand compute environment, provisioning resources within the on-demand compute environment to substantially duplicate the local environment and transferring workload from the local-environment to the on-demand compute environment. The event can be a threshold or a triggering event within or outside of the local environment.

A cluster of nodes, comprising: a plurality of nodes, each having a security policy, and being associated task processing resources; a registration agent configured to register a node and issue a node certificate to the respective node; a communication network configured to communicate certificates to authorize access to computing resources, in accordance with the respective security policy; and a processor configured to automatically dynamically partition the plurality of nodes into subnets, based on at least a distance function of at least one node characteristic, each subnet designating a communication node for communicating control information and task data with other communication nodes, and to communicate control information between each node within the subnet and the communication node of the other subnets.

The present application provides a device for providing control plane (CP) and/or user plane (UP) analytics. The device is configured to obtain information related to a resource and/or a change of a resource related to a CP and/or a UP; perform an analysis based on the obtained information; and generate data based on the analysis. This application also provides a management plane entity, for example, an operation, administration and management (OAM). The management plane entity is configured to provide information related to a resource, wherein the resource is related to a CP and/or a UP to the device for providing analytics.
