Machine learning techniques for predictive anomaly detection

As described herein, various embodiments of the present invention improve computational efficiency of performing reliable persistent monitoring of a computer system. Persistent monitoring of the operations of a computer system has various operational reliability benefits for various computer systems and is an important part of service level objectives for highly maintenance-critical computer systems. However, doing the noted persistent monitoring operations in a reliable manner requires access to large amounts of labeled training data that are not always available for more customized computer systems with unique operational / behaviorial pattern signatures. In response, various embodiments of the present invention address the noted challenges by generating training data for an anomalous operational state detection machine learning model whose training data may be generated using a ground-truth validation criterion that is defined based at least in part on an inferred outlier score for a decomposed residual component of a given operational monitoring timeseries trend.

Managing resource constraints in a cloud environment

Techniques for managing resource constraints of a cloud environment are disclosed. A system receives a request to initiate a provisioning process for provisioning a first service in the cloud environment. The system determines a resource constraint associated with a resource that the first service utilizes. Based on the resource constraint, the system determines a set of candidate services that also utilize the resource as candidates for deprovisioning from the cloud environment. The system identifies respective service features of the set of candidate services and generates a ranking of the set of candidate services based on weighting metrics associated with the respective service features. Based on the ranking, the system selects a second service of the set of candidate services for deprovisioning from the cloud environment. The system deprovisions the second service to alleviate the resource constraint and then provisions the first service by executing the provisioning process.

Proactive Correction Of Potential Transmission Errors In A Storage Device

Instead of incurring interface errors caused by power drops, continuously track all the channels between the controller and the storage device (both in-band and side-band channels). The tracking will include extracting relevant indications and use a prediction model that correlates between the tracked indications to later occurrence of power drop events. In response to the prediction results, the system may perform different rehabilitation operations (countermeasures). The controller will monitor different indications from the storage element and power supply to predict a signal integrity degradation marginality event on the interface. The monitoring and mitigation strategy relies on an open-ended system. The controller does not employ a real-time continuous return channel from the storage device that may signal pass / fail conditions. Given the nature of an open-ended system and tolerance of calibration for the data gathering, processing and inference system, the controller will have to cope also with false positive events.

Maintaining and recomputing reference counts in a persistent memory file system

Techniques are provided for maintaining and recomputing reference counts in a persistent memory file system of a node. Primary reference counts are maintained for pages within persistent memory of the node. In response to receiving a first operation to link a page into a persistent memory file system of the persistent memory, a primary reference count of the page is incremented before linking the page into the persistent memory file system. In response to receiving a second operation to unlink the page from the persistent memory file system, the page is unlinked from the persistent memory file system before the primary reference count is decremented. Upon the node recovering from a crash, the persistent memory file system is traversed in order to update shadow reference counts for the pages with correct reference count values, which are used to overwrite the primary reference counts with the correct reference count values.

System and method for prognostic-based dynamic task allocation in a multi-agent autonomous system

A system and method for fail-operational mission continuity in a multi-agent autonomous system. Each autonomous agent includes an onboard Prognostic Health Management (PHM) module that monitors health using sensor data. Upon detecting an incipient fault, the PHM module calculates a prognostic Remaining Useful Life (RUL). This RUL is transformed into a quantitative Operational Risk Cost (Ω) and communicated to a multi-agent control system. The control system's dynamic task allocation algorithm uses the Ω values as key inputs in a multi-objective optimization process. This enables the system to proactively and autonomously re-allocate a task from a degrading agent to a healthy agent before a failure occurs. The degrading agent is simultaneously commanded to perform a safe contingency maneuver. This integration of real-time prognostics and multi-agent control creates a resilient, self-healing system capable of completing missions despite hardware degradation.
