MIMICKING A PRESENCE NOTIFICATION FROM AN APPLICATION EXECUTING ON A VIRTUAL COMPONENT TO OPTIMIZE COMPUTING RESOURCE ALLOCATION/UTILIZATION

摘要

According to embodiments of the present invention, machines, systems, computer-implemented methods and computer program products for mimicking a presence notification to optimize utilization of computing resources of a system comprising a plurality of virtual components and a virtual component manager are provided. Using the virtual component manager, one or more components that are each performing functions limited to providing a presence notification may be detected. The detected one or more components may be suspended, and the presence notifications for each suspended component may be generated and transmitted by the virtual component manager. Suspending a component that is solely providing a presence notification frees up resources that may be utilized for another component performing computational work.

主权项

1. A method of conserving resources of a computing system comprising a plurality of virtual components and a virtual component manager, the method comprising:
detecting, via the virtual component manager, one or more virtual components each performing functions limited to providing a presence notification for an application executing within that virtual component; suspending the detected one or more virtual components; and transmitting the presence notification for the application by the virtual component manager.
