  • Patent number: 10936291
    Abstract: A system recommends the refactoring of microservices. The system determines a segments similarity score based on comparing first code segments, associated with a first microservice in an application, against second code segments, associated with a second microservice in the application. The system determines whether the segments similarity score satisfies a segments similarity threshold. The system determines microservices similarity scores based on comparing a size of similar code segments in the first code segments and the second code segments against sizes of the first microservice and the second microservice, if the segments similarity score satisfies the segments similarity threshold. The system determines whether any microservices similarity score satisfies a microservices similarity threshold. The system outputs a recommendation to merge the first microservice with the second microservice, if any microservices similarity score satisfies the microservices similarity threshold.

  • Patent number: 10909023
    Abstract: One or more embodiments are described for function-message identifier oriented test case generation for seamlessly supporting continuous globalization verification testing in agile computer program product development. An example computer-implemented method includes identifying a newly added globalization function in a modified source code, the globalization function including a message to be output via a user-interface, the message being in a first language. The method also includes generating function-message data that associates a function identifier of the globalization function with a message identifier of the message. The method also includes generating, automatically, a test case for verifying the globalization function outputs the message via the user-interface in a second language using the function-message data. The method also includes creating and broadcasting a test report to a development team, the test report indicating a result of executing the test case.

  • Patent number: 10908912
    Abstract: A method for redirecting an indirect call in an operating system kernel to a direct call is disclosed. The direct calls are contained in trampoline code called an inline jump switch (IJS) or an outline jump switch (OJS). The IJS and OJS can operate in either a use mode, redirecting an indirect call to a direct call, a learning and update mode or fallback mode. In the learning and update mode, target addresses in a trampoline code template are learned and updated by a jump switch worker thread that periodically runs as a kernel process. When building the kernel binary, a plug-in is integrated into the kernel. The plug-in replaces call sites with a trampoline code template containing a direct call so that the template can be later updated by the jump switch worker thread.

  • Patent number: 10877873
    Abstract: Techniques are provided to use historic execution state information to visualize tracepoint data. For example, historic execution state information corresponding to an application's previous execution is accessed. This historic execution state information was collected while the application was executing. After correlating the historic execution state information to the application's code, a tracepoint is associated with a portion of the code. Consequently, when the code is replayed based on the historic execution state information, the tracepoint causes a behavior of that code portion to be logged while the code is replayed uninterrupted. The code is then actually replayed based on the historic execution state information. During the replay, the tracepoint causes the behavior of the code portion to be logged. The logged behavior is visualized on a user interface.
