Abstract: A data processing system includes one or more processors that each execute one or more operating systems. Each operating system includes one or more applications. An accelerator provides a shared resource for a plurality of the applications and has one or more input/output interfaces for the submission of tasks to the accelerator from an application. A hypervisor manages the allocation of the input/output interfaces to the one or more operating systems and a hypervisor interface enables communication between the hypervisor and the accelerator. The system is capable of being configured such that an operating system that has been allocated an input/output interface is capable of communicating with the accelerator via the input/output interface independently of the hypervisor. A memory management unit is capable of providing an isolated region of a memory for use by the operating system while the operating system retains its allocated input/output interface.

Abstract: In a virtual machine that uses a just-in-time complier (JITC) as a software execution environment, an idle time of a core to which the JITC is allocated is utilized to generate machine code in advance, thereby reducing a load on an interpreter. Accordingly, code execution performance of the interpreter is improved, and the utilization of a multi-core system that executes applications is increased.

A system for implementing the model-based design and a non-transitory computer readable medium are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for detecting a partial commit of software. A dependency information of the software is extracted from a version history and a bug database. A dimensional matrix containing a set of commit, and relationship information with a set of files with each commit is created from the dependency information. A centrality matrix is computed by performing a first set of matrix transformations on the dimensional matrix. A set of missing files of a partial commit, is identified by performing a second set of matrix transformations on the centrality matrix and a file vector, the file vector including a file dependency information of the partial commit.

Abstract: A system and computer program product for developing software in which the software comprises a plurality of programs. A change to a program is received. A data structure checking procedure may then be invoked. The changed program is parsed for a reference to a data structure. Other instances of the data structure are located in other programs within the software. The referenced data structure is compared to the located other instances of the data structure. A predefined action (such as notifying a programmer or correcting the inconsistencies) is performed in response to any detected differences between the referenced data structure and the located other instances of the data structure. These steps are repeated for all data structures within the changed program.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for an application thinning mechanism are described. The thinning mechanism can select a subset of components from a universal application to assemble an application variant to be distributed and installed to a specific type of devices. The universal application may include every component, such as asset, resource or executable, built/developed for targeted device attributes to install one common application to multiple devices. For example, the thinning mechanism can use a trait vector associated with a type of devices to iterate through the components and identify assets to be included or packaged into in each target device specific application or application variant.

Abstract: A method and system for promoting software code from a source database instance to a target database instance distributed amongst a plurality of networked servers is described. Software code migration information pertaining to software objects associated with the software code, the source database instance, and the target database instance is analyzed to determine whether errors associated with migrating the software code exceeds a predefined acceptance threshold. Such code migration information is further analyzed to determine whether migrating the software code from the source database instance to the target database instance will result in unacceptable data loss including disassociation, deletion, or change to data, or result in unacceptable non-data criteria before, during, or after the software code is migrated.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to automatically providing textual context for source strings in a source language that are to be translated by a human translator to target strings in a target language. The source strings are compared against a dictionary of reference strings in the source language. For each source string, one or more of the reference strings that are most relevant, similar, etc., are selected. When a human translator is to translate the source strings, the selected reference strings are presented; each source string has one or more similar/related strings displayable in association therewith. For a given source string, the human translator can use the associated reference strings as a form of context to help estimate the intended meaning of the given source string when translating the given source string to a target string in the target language.

Abstract: A cloud computing environment provides the ability to deploy a web application that has been developed using one of a plurality of application frameworks and is configured to execute within one of a plurality of runtime environments. The cloud computing environment receives the web application in a package compatible with the runtime environment (e.g., a WAR file to be launched in an application server, for example) and dynamically binds available services by appropriately inserting service provisioning data (e.g., service network address, login credentials, etc.) into the package. The cloud computing environment then packages an instance of the runtime environment, a start script and the package into a web application deployment package, which is then transmitted to an application (e.g., container virtual machine, etc.).

Abstract: A method of operation of a computing system includes: receiving an application package for operating on a first device and a second device; parsing the application package for an ecosystem, a first application, and a second application; installing the first application for operating with the first device; and installing the second application for operating on the second device and with the first application.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for generating exportable encoded identifications of networked machines based on installed package profiles. A physical or virtual client machine can host a set of installed software packages, including operating system, application, and/or other software. A package manager tracks the set of installed packages and updates available for the installed set. The package manager can be configured to capture an inventory of the installed packages, and generate an encoded identification of the entire package complement and/or selected subsets of those packages. In aspects, the encoded identification can be based on a set of attributes of the installed packages and/or their constituent files, such as file names, version numbers, size, and/or other attributes. The encoded identification for the client machine can be transmitted to one or more remote management platforms, such as package servers, network management servers, or others for remote operations on the client machine.

Abstract: Debugging without reliance on source code includes obtaining a disassembly of a portion of an executable code. The disassembly includes a sequence of assembly instructions including an instruction Y at which an exception or other event of interest occurred and at least five assembly instructions that precede Y. An assembly instruction X is located for which a mapping is known between a storage location accessed in instruction X and a symbolic name SYM_X for that storage location, where data flow and/or control flow leads from instruction X to instruction Y. A symbolic name SYM_Y that pertains to instruction Y is built from SYM_X while interpreting the assembly instructions between X and Y, and SYM_Y is reported to the user. Some variations include tools and techniques for locating the instruction X, and tools and techniques for determining a flow relationship between instruction X and instruction Y.
