    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for threshold activation of an audio teleconference. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for threshold activation of an audio teleconference is provided. The method includes receiving calls into a conference bridge for an audio conference and determining whether or not a threshold number of calls from corresponding callers have been received for the audio conference. The method also includes initiating the audio conference responsive to a threshold number of callers having called into the audio conference, but prohibiting initiation of the audio conference until the threshold number of callers have called into the audio conference.

    Abstract: An approach is described for creating an audio file sample based upon user preferences. An associated method may include detecting selection of an audio file by a user, wherein the selection of the audio file occurs via a communications network and indexing the audio file to create a plurality of indexed segments based upon audio analysis. The method further may include selecting at least one segment among the plurality of indexed segments based upon a profile of the user and incorporating the at least one selected segment into an audio sample having a designated length. Indexing the audio file to create a plurality of indexed segments based upon audio analysis may include, for each audio characteristic among a plurality of designated audio characteristics, creating from the audio file at least one indexed segment corresponding to the audio characteristic.

    Abstract: A computer receives an application and system configuration detailing program applications, operating systems, and when and/or on which system an application may hibernate and/or operate. The computer determines a baseline power consumption of each of the applications on each of the applicable systems and operates the applications on the most energy efficient system. The computer monitors and displays the energy consumption of each application and determines whether the applications capable of hibernation have been idle for a period of time. If so, the computer hibernates the application until the application is awoken. If the application is incapable of hibernation nor idle, the computer compares the consumption to the determined baseline consumption of an alternative system and, if the consumption is greater than the baseline consumption of an alternative system and the application is capable of operation on the alternative system, moves operation of the application to the more efficient system.
