Abstract: Mating of a modified user interface to existing user interface code is provided. When a user interface is modified, a pseudo code representation of the modified user interface is generated. At application runtime, the pseudo code representation is passed to a user interface render engine that is modified to parse the pseudo code representation to generate a representation of the modified user interface that may be processed by the render engine for rendering the modified user interface for display. A generic code library is generated for receiving events from the modified user interface and for passing the received events to proper event handlers in the existing code library without the need to modify the existing code library in response to modifying the user interface.

Abstract: A data processing method including receiving a model of a directed graph, the model defining one or more nodes and edges of the directed graph, each node having a corresponding behavior defining the execution of the node, and each edge having corresponding data defining a directional link from one node to another node and having a corresponding condition defining when the edge is to be traversed; executing, according to a predefined priority, a series of transformation rules, the transformation rules comprising a first rule for the elimination of an edge that links a node to itself, and a second rule for the elimination of an edge that links a node to another node, each rule including an update operation defining a new behavior for the or each node affected by the elimination of the edge; and creating an output according to the performance of the transformation rules.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for a linker to resolve references from shared memory to private memory in a multi-core system.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention create a binding specifications file that is compatible with a user interface application from a grammar rich XML file. The grammar rich XML file uses a complex DTD for transformation. The complex DTD may be prone to error if created by the user, therefore, the complex DTD file is automatically created from a schema definition provided by the user or user's agent. The user or user's agent defines a schema for the desired grammar level. Through a series of XSL transformations, the complex DTD file is created. Also, a stylesheet used for transforming the grammar rich XML file is automatically created. The grammar rich XML file provided by the user conforms to the automatically created complex DTD file. Thus, the grammar used in defining bindings of a user interface application is extensible without any requirement to enrich and recompile the application anytime an extension of the language is desired.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for offering simultaneous or concurrent static analysis on a software product or software project where the software product or project comprises disparate resource types, such as the Java® technology or C/C++programming language. A key part of the invention is a framework allowing analysis “providers” to be integrated into a common framework. The rules for each type of analysis can be integrated into a common user interface where the user can act on any of them in the same way. The system has an interface for interfacing with the project set, numerous analysis components for each platform or technology being utilized by the project set. The system has a single user interface (UT) for offering to the user unified configuration settings, or rules, for configuring each analysis component so that the desired analysis of the project set can be accomplished by the system.

Abstract: A system can include an analyzer module configured to analyze spill code generated by a register allocator to determine that register spill instructions can be paired, wherein paired register spill instructions relate to corresponding register locations in each of a first register set and a second register set and that no instructions between said register spill instructions modify any of said register spill instructions; a rewriter module configured to, based on the determining, modify said register spill instructions as a parallel register spill instruction; and a storage module configured to configure storage of associated register spills in memory so said register spills can be loaded back in parallel into corresponding registers of said first and second register sets based on said modified parallel register spill instruction, wherein the configuration of storage includes allocation of space on a memory stack such that the register spills are double word aligned.

Abstract: A rollback manager creates a restore point on a computer. The rollback manager stores a reboot indicator in non-revertible storage. The rollback manager monitors the reboot indicator to detect an unexpected reboot during deployment of a modification. The rollback manager configures the computer responsive to the reboot indicator. The rollback manager can roll back the system state, responsive to detecting a failed modification deployment. The rollback manager can deem the computer to be stable, responsive to detecting a successful modification deployment.

Abstract: A method and system to automate software testing using sniffer side and browser side recording and a toolbar interface are described. In one embodiment, a system tests programming code associated with a website and creates a first test case. In another embodiment, the system includes a testing device having a test interface to enable a user to initiate a first test case and to store a first HTML representation and a first XML representation of encrypted web pages viewed during the first test case. In another embodiment, the system includes a sniffer server that operates as a proxy server for the website and stores a second HTML representation and a second XML representation of unencrypted web pages viewed during the first test case. The system may include a hosting server that hosts the website and receives the first and the second HTML and XML representations from the testing device and the sniffer server when the test case is terminated via the test interface.

Abstract: A method and system arrangement are disclosed for configuring a program system.

Abstract: The present invention allows for the acquisition of content data. The present invention temporarily stores the first and second process progress information in the storage medium, and, when the requested content data and license data 301 are registered in the database after being downloaded and temporarily stored in the storage medium, removes the first and second process progress information, and, if there are the first and/or second process progress information are left when the stopped content acquisition process restarts, retries to acquire data after removing the content data and license data 301 corresponding to the second process progress information. This prevents, when the data acquisition is retried, the same content data and license data from being stored in the storage medium again. This allows efficient use of the storage space, and therefore the content data is acquired without fail.

Responsive to a request, the activity execution context is recreated via the continuation and the activity is executed within the recreated context.

Abstract: A method for use with an information (or data) warehouse comprises managing the information warehouse with instructions in a declarative language. The instructions specify information warehouse-level tasks to be done without specifying certain details of how the tasks are to be implemented, for example, using databases and text indexers. The details are hidden from the user and include, for example, in an information warehouse having a FACT table that joins two or more dimension tables, details of database level operations when structured data are being handled, including database command line utilities, database drivers, and structured query language (SQL) statements; and details of text-indexing engines when unstructured data are being handled. The information warehouse is managed in a dynamic way in which different tasks—such as data loading tasks and information warehouse construction tasks—may be interleaved (i.e., there is no particular order in which the different tasks must be completed).
