Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for generating automobile parts bundles associated with maintenance events. A maintenance schedule is retrieved and various maintenance events are identified. Various maintenance tasks associated with maintenance events are also identified. Parts associated with these maintenance tasks are placed into parts bundles associated with the maintenance event and a unique identifier within a parts catalog.

Abstract: RAID levels are assigned to data prior to loading the data on a disk array or other data storage device. The RAID levels are determined by applying an algorithm (e.g., a rule-based criteria, a utilization model) to data workload specifications and device specifications.

Abstract: A computer software tool used for automatically identifying code portions and data portions of a binary executable software program in which the code portions include machine instructions that are of arbitrary length. Software products are typically distributed as binary, executable files, which comprise a string of binary values. In general, an executable file has no structure or meaning, except as determined by its behavior when dynamically executed, one instruction at a time, by a digital computer. The software tool determines a set of addresses for any known code and data portions. The tool is then used to disassemble machine instructions, beginning at a starting address for each known code portion, to identify the target addresses of other code portions and other data portions. Other sections of the binary executable software program that could be either code or data are then analyzed to identify additionAL code and data portions.

Abstract: A method and procedure for modifying modules comprising a binary executable software program in such a way that, despite the transformations performed and the creation of new versions of the modules, the transformed program appears (to that program, including all of its components) as if it is running in the identical environment as the original program. The environment includes environment variables, the name of the program, the names of all of the dynamically loaded library (DLL) files that the program references, the directory in which the program resides, and the current directory at the time the program started execution. When the program has been transformed, e.g., for the purposes of monitoring or measurement, the environment also includes the effective addresses of data and instruction references made by the program.
