Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, an electronic device, and a computer program product for code defect detection. The method described here includes determining log information associated with a defect based on the defect reported during testing of a software product. The method further includes determining a nature of the defect based on the log information. The method further includes determining, based on the nature, the log information, and a memory image file generated when the defect is reported, target code in code of the software product that causes the defect, in response to the nature indicating that the defect is caused by the code of the software product and needs to be repaired. By using the solution of the present application, different analysis strategies for defects may be adopted based on natures of the defects, thereby improving the efficiency of detecting code defects.

Abstract: The technology relates to factors regarding the external environment around a vehicle that are used to trigger enhanced driving directions for use by the driver. The factors can include issues such as adverse weather conditions, low light conditions and temporary obstacles or other obstructions that may prevent or reduce the ability of the driver to see street signs or other landmarks that are part of an initial set of driving directions. Upon determination of one or more relevant factors, the system is able to modify or otherwise enhances directions in real time. This allows the driver to be able to quickly and easily identify other visible landmarks and use such information to navigate to a desired destination. This approach employs one or more on-board cameras configured to detect objects and conditions in the environment adjacent to or otherwise nearby the vehicle, such as within line of sight of the vehicle's front end.

Abstract: One example method includes performing a filtering process that identifies one or more candidate hosts for scheduling of a pod, wherein the candidacy of a host is determined based in part upon an association rule, generating an overall host score for each of the candidate hosts, and scheduling the pod to one of the candidate hosts based on the overall host score of that candidate host. A host risk score and/or pod risk score may be used in the generating of the overall host score.

Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a distributed analytics development platform (DADP) capable of automatically maintaining a multiple user development environment in real-time. In an illustrative example, a DADP includes a user interface (UI) layer, an application programming interface (API) layer, and an orchestration layer. The orchestration layer, for example, includes tool instances deployed for each of the multiple users. The orchestration layer may further include a multi-instance common orchestration service (COS) having an orchestration service instance (OSI) deployed in each of the tool instances. The COS, for example, may access a current state of each tool instance associated with the user in the orchestration layer and update a dynamic system state profile based on a current state of each of the tool instances. Various embodiments may advantageously provide an autonomously updated analytic development environment for deployment and maintenance of the tool instances in real-time.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and a controller for controlling generation of geothermal power in an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) operation in the vicinity of a wellhead during hydrocarbon production to thereby supply electrical power to one or more of in-field operational equipment, a grid power structure, and an energy storage device. In an embodiment, during hydrocarbon production, a temperature of a flow of wellhead fluid from the wellhead or working fluid may be determined. If the temperature is above a vaporous phase change threshold of the working fluid, heat exchanger valves may be opened to divert flow of wellhead fluid to heat exchangers to facilitate heat transfer from the flow of wellhead fluid to working fluid through the heat exchangers, thereby to cause the working fluid to change from a liquid to vapor, the vapor to cause a generator to generate electrical power via rotation of an expander.
