Abstract: Techniques for providing custom metadata in a multi-tenant database environment in which hardware and software of the multi-tenant database system is shared by one or more organizations, each having one or more corresponding users. Each of the organizations has associated organization data and organization metadata. Activating procedural code is triggered in response to a trigger event determined by a platform interface. The procedural code is to query the organization metadata provided by the associated organization through a metadata interface provided by a platform developer. The platform interface is provided by the platform developer and the procedural code utilizes compile time dependencies to generate custom metametadata to be maintained by the platform developer and to be provided to the organizational metadata, which is to be maintained by the corresponding organization. The organization data owned by the organization is written to with the procedural code in response to results of the query.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for the utilization of a robotic process automation system for functional evaluation and improvement of back end instructional constructs. The system may scan a set of code to identify an exception comprising an exception tag and an exception string located at a first location within the set of code. The system may then transmit the set of code and the identified exception to a robotic process automation system, along with instructions for the robotic process automation system to compare the exception tag and exception string to a replacement code database to identify an exception string. The robotic process automation system can then replace the exception string in the set of code with the identified replacement string.

Abstract: A computing device supports distributed application execution by sending a code module to different remote devices that have different device-specific support for a platform-independent device function, and sending, to at least two of the different remote devices, a platform-independent message indicating an event has occurred in order to trigger each of the at least two of the different remote devices to autonomously select a device-specific function from a plurality of device-specific functions, and execute the different device-specific support for the platform-independent device function. Each of the at least two of the different remote devices comprises an output interface and triggering each of the at least two of the different remote devices to execute the different device-specific support comprises triggering each of the at least two of the different remote devices to use their output interface for outputting differently from each other.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for testing the performance of applications. By way of example only, the method may include training a neural network with documents containing text elements that are arranged in accordance with a defined format and using the neural network to determine the predictability of the value of individual text elements within a test document. When the neural network indicates that the value of a text element is unlikely, the value may be modified and the modified document may be used to test an application that processes documents in accordance with the defined format.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to a system that includes a storage component that stores data and a processor.

Abstract: A technique allows a user client to receive a software product from a server. The user client may determine if the software product includes other potentially unwanted programs by reading one or more graphical user interface instances that are created during installation of the software product. The graphical user interface instances are read to identify information related to software identifiers of the software product and of potentially unwanted programs. A signature file may be received from a third-party server. The software identifiers of the software product and potentially unwanted programs can be checked against the signature file during installation of the software product in order to identify the presence of potentially unwanted programs that may be bundled with software product.

Abstract: A system and method to build feature evolution models for existing applications (“apps”) in the market based on open app data repositories). A feature evolution model of an app depicts the app name, its historical versions (historical version labels, release timestamps of each version), rating values of each version, and structured features (e.g., umbrella features and low-level features) each version introduces, improves or deletes. There is further extracted from the app description and release logs the app name, historical version labels, release timestamps, use the rating info of the app to extract and assign rating values for each version of the app, and apply NLP techniques and source code analysis techniques to extract “structured features” of the app through analyzing the app description, the release logs, and corresponding source code revisions of the app. Upon the built feature evolution models, various feature insights may be easily extracted and generated.

The asynchronous dependency resolution system determines that the dependency repository comprises a first association between the first application component and a second application component, where the first application component is a dependency of a second application component, obtains source code for the second application component, and generates a second executable bundle for the second application component using the source code for the first and second application components.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the disclosed subject matter involves a system and method relating to automation test runs of a software build, where the test runs effect impersonating an automation audience and selecting optional features to test with the automation audience. The automation audience is associated with a software build having static features, and the test runs include optional features, where each optional feature may have more than one associated treatment. Each feature/treatment combination may be tested in a test scenario associated with the feature/treatment combination. New features that are exposed in other audiences may be enabled for the automation audience to assist in verification and test of the new features. Dynamic selection of the optional features is effected using an application program interface (API) in the source code for the features, where the API accesses feature configuration information during runtime. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a novel system and method for initiating trial use of a software application. One or more trial software icons are displayed on a messaging window of a graphical users interface on a display coupled to a computing device. Each trial software icon represents a trial software application, such as a separate and distinct trial software application, that is not currently installed on the computing device. Moving an object representing a file attachment, such as through drag-and-drop action, to one of the trial software icons automatically installs the trial software application on the computing device. Also the trial software application is launched automatically to open the file attachment.

Abstract: An architecture for realizing a customer system on a cloud computing platform is defined in terms of a plurality of architecture types, each type (AT) defined by plural architecture type units (ATUs), each ATU comprising a set of ATU Details. The ATU Details are ordered into a series of discrete stages. Maturity of the architecture is determined as a single architecture pulse (AP) numeric value for each architecture type. The pulse reflects the extent to which the ATUs of the architecture type have reached a requisite level of quality, and an extent to which the ATUs are created in a sequence consistent with the series of discrete stages. The AP pulse values may be combined to form a single success platform pulse (SPP) for tracking overall condition of the platform architecture with a single numerical value.
