Abstract: Automation windows for RPA for attended or unattended robots are disclosed. A child session is created and hosted as a window including the UIs of applications of a window associated with a parent session. Running multiple sessions allows a robot to operate in this child session while the user interacts with the parent session. The user may thus be able to interact with applications that the robot is not using or the user and the robot may be able to interact with the same application if that application is capable of this functionality. The user and the robot are both interacting with the same application instances and file system. Changes made via the robot and the user in an application will be made as if a single user made them, rather than having the user and the robot each work with separate versions of the applications and file systems.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for building an intelligent automated assistant. Embodiments of the present invention rely on the concept of “active ontologies” (e.g., execution environments constructed in an ontology-like manner) to build and run applications for use by intelligent automated assistants. In one specific embodiment, a method for building an automated assistant includes interfacing a service-oriented architecture that includes a plurality of remote services to an active ontology, where the active ontology includes at least one active processing element that models a domain. At least one of the remote services is then registered for use in the domain.

Abstract: Techniques are described for providing an IT and security operations mobile application for managing IT and security operations instances of an IT and security operations application via a mobile device. The IT and security operations mobile application can be linked to the IT and security operations application to enable the IT and security operations application to send messages (e.g., notifications, alerts, action requests, etc.) related the occurrences of incidents/events in an IT environment, such as security-related incident, that can impact the operation of the IT environment. The IT and security operations mobile application enables a user to respond to the messages by initiating actions that are sent to the IT and security operations application for executing within the IT environment.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an API specification document is processed to extract metadata representing API elements. Dependencies are mapped between the API elements using orders and ranks to create a metamodel that includes a map of metadata attributes and links that represent functional and operational aspects of program elements accessible via the API. The metamodel is stored for use in generating support infrastructure artifacts. In some embodiments, database entities are compared to a metamodel to generate matches. Each match indicates a confidence score and a relationship between a database entity and a metadata attribute. A selection of a metadata attribute is received for inclusion in the new API, and a selection of a database entity to be associated with the metadata attribute for the new API is received. The computing system updates the confidence score for the match that indicates the relationship between the database entity and the metadata attribute.

The method includes the following steps: —determining the number of executables which remain to be executed in the last child subtask of the first period when the parent subtask of the second period starts; and—determining the number of executables already executed in the parent subtask of the second period when the last child subtask of the first period finishes.

Abstract: Approaches, techniques, and mechanisms are disclosed for flexible and dynamic modification of elements within textual content to provide an enhanced interface for development or other activities with respect to those elements. In an embodiment, the elements may be augmented with links by which users may quickly access associated items in development tools or other resources. For example, in an embodiment, the elements may be specific lines or blocks of code mentioned in a stack trace or error message. The elements may be transformed into links that, for instance, open the file containing the mentioned line or block of code, and optionally scroll specifically to the mentioned line or block of code. In an embodiment, the elements are specific passages within web pages that match trigger conditions specified by rules encapsulated in a user-customizable client-side plug-in, extensions, or bookmarklet. Proxy-based or server-based implementations may also be used.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing updating of disk images supporting serverless code execution and controlled deployment of updated disk images. A disk image can be defined as a set of layers that represent a file system include code of a serverless function and other data used by the code. A function owner can designate one layer as containing software or other data subject to update. When a new version of the layer is obtained at a serverless compute system, the system can generate a new disk image containing the updated layer. The system can then gradually transition the function to the new disk image, by dividing calls to the function among two versions of the function—one using the prior disk image, and one using the new disk image. Performance data gained from the new version of the function can be used to control the gradual transition.
