Abstract: A method for analyzing a partial software program includes receiving a first software program. The first software program is designed to execute using a second software program. A first symbolic value indicates a characteristic of the second software program. The first software program is analyzed using a static program analysis, where the static program analysis generates a second symbolic value based on the first symbolic value. The second symbolic value indicates a characteristic of the first software program. The first software program is analyzed independent of an availability of the second software program. In response to determining that the second symbolic value is associated with a predetermined characteristic and that the first software program would perform an action associated with the second symbolic value if the first software program was executed using the second software program, a warning signal is generated.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of a device that performs a hitless update a boot image of a network element. In this embodiment, the device identifies the network element to update and determines if the network element has redundant paths. If this network element has redundant paths, the device configures the network element to drain data processing of the network element. In addition, the device updates the network element to a new boot image when the data processing of the network element is drained.

Abstract: An apparatus, for a first loop included in a program code, determines whether an inner loop is included in the first loop. When the inner loop is included in the first loop, the apparatus determines whether a processing code other than the inner loop is included in the first loop. When both the inner loop and the processing code other than the inner loop are included in the first loop or when no inner loop is included in the first loop, the apparatus adds a performance measurement code for conducting performance measurement of the first loop to the program code.

The method further includes determining, by one or more computer processes, a relationship between the program and the environmental factor. The method further includes generating, by one or more computer processors, one or more instructions for the program based at least in part on the determined relationship and the environmental factor.

Abstract: Computer source code maintenance represents a significant aspect of computer systems. Code that was developed for one platform, in one language, may require a significant investment in human effort to port such code to another platform or language. Converting source code to a language-agnostic source code allows a user to view the interaction of various portions of the source code in a unified view. Additionally, the language-agnostic source code may be automatically regenerated by a processor to a different platform or language. As a further benefit, documentation, standards-compliance, security, and/or other non-functional requirements may be provided to further enhance the utility of the original source code.

Abstract: Computer code from an application program comprising a plurality of modules that each comprise a separately loadable file is code cached in a shared and persistent caching system. A shared code caching engine receives native code comprising at least a portion of a single module of the application program, and stores runtime data corresponding to the native code in a cache data file in the non-volatile memory. The engine then converts cache data file into a code cache file and enables the code cache file to be pre-loaded as a runtime code cache. These steps are repeated to store a plurality of separate code cache files at different locations in non-volatile memory.

Abstract: In a virtualized computer system operable in more than two hierarchical privilege levels, components of a hypervisor, which include a virtual machine kernel and virtual machine monitors (VMMs), are assigned to different privilege levels. The virtual machine kernel operates at a low privilege level to be able to exploit certain features provided by the low privilege level, and the VMMs operate at a high privilege level to support execution of virtual machines. Upon determining that a context switch from the virtual machine kernel to a VMM is to be performed, the computer system exits the low privilege level, and enters the high privilege level to execute a trampoline that supports context switches to VMMs, such as state changes, and then the VMM. The trampoline is deactivated after execution control is switched to the VMM.
