Abstract: System for determining distributions of virtual machine (VM) patterns across pool 74 of VM instances 72A-C based upon historical data 80 to achieve faster provisioning times in networked computing environment 84 (e.g. cloud). Total pool size for a pool of VM instances and then distribution of VM instance patterns across the pool are determined based on historical data. The pool of VM instances is provisioned according to the distribution. VM patterns are distributed evenly or according to percentages with which VM patterns were previously requested; or the patterns are grouped into groups that are associated with particular user/customer levels (privilege, permission, service level). Workloads 76-AC are received and processed using VM instances selected from the pool. Pool distribution functionality can be part of a management layer (64, Fig. 3). Engine 70 determines which VMs get pre-provisioned on unused hardware and what portion of unused hardware receives pre-provisioning assignment.

Abstract: The present invention is a solution for detecting a spoofed command butto n in a pop-up window. The solution tracks the creation process of a pop-up w indow, detects the presence of command buttons in the pop-up window, verifie s the value labeled on each command button in the pop-up window and determin es a follow-up action generated from selecting a command button on the pop-u p window.
