MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641050393 A) filed by Indian Institute Of Information Technology, Kottayam, Kerala, on April 20, for 'system and method for entropy-guided malware-resilient adaptive resource management in heterogeneous computing environments.'

Inventor(s) include Mr. Sumit Kumar Saurav; and Dr. Shajulin Benedict.

The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a system and method for entropy-guided malware-resilient adaptive resource management in heterogeneous computing environments. The system utilizes a distribution analyzation unit to calculate a distribution variance metric based on Shannon entropy, detecting workload imbalances within a directed acyclic graph (DAG). A structural granularity modifier dynamically restructures the workflow via recursive task-splitting or merging, utilizing data-parallel boundaries and virtual synchronization barriers to optimize task granularity while preserving dependency constraints. To ensure security in adversarial environments, a risk assessment unit computes task-level exposure probabilities by modeling non-linear vulnerability propagation and the impact of bridge tasks. Resource allocation is managed by a resource allocator maximizing a multi-objective quality-of-service (QoS) score, balancing an exponential reliability function, thermal-aware energy consumption, and execution performance. A feedback controller enables closed-loop adaptation through real-time execution monitoring and shadow-scheduling cycles, recalibrating mapping parameters to mitigate workload fragmentation and malware exposure risks across diverse infrastructures."
