Abstract: The automatic generation of synthetic training data that can be used to train a language model to generate code examples following a code language based on a natural language input. Thus, new language models may be created, or existing language models may be fine-tuned, to adapt to automatically generate code without having to manually generate bulk quantities of training data. Rather, a many-to-many grammar mapping is navigated to generate training data. Specifically, the many-to-many grammar mapping maps code grammar to natural grammar. Then, each training data is generated by navigating the many-to-many grammar mapping definition to generate a mapping of a respective code expression to a respective natural language expression.

Abstract: A pipeline management system that allows for creating and managing pipelines and pipeline execution. The system allows a user to create pipeline stages, steps for the pipeline stages, and commands for the pipeline steps. The system efficiently allows users to create and manage multiple pipelines by allowing attributes of commands, such as for example variables in the commands, to be entered at runtime. The runtime entry attributes for a pipeline make up an input set. A pipeline can be bound with one or more input sets that are used to fill or instantiate the pipeline variables at runtime.

Abstract: A distribution server for controlling data item downloads maintains at least one download constraint for a respective data item. When a query for permission to download the data item is input from a user device, the distribution server checks whether the download constraints are met. When the respective download constraints are met, a response is sent to the user device that the download is permitted. When the respective download constraints are not met, a response is sent to the user device that the download is prohibited.

Abstract: Dynamic trace sizing for tracing just-in-time compilation is provided. A trace of a program is generated during a tracing phase of the just-in-time compilation. The trace of the program is profiled to determine an estimated effective trace size prior to compiling the trace. Additional profiling is performed to determine a garbage collection time and consequently a total execution time of the program based on the estimated effective trace size determined prior to compiling the trace. It is determined whether to continue formation of the trace or trigger termination of the trace based on the garbage collection time of the program. Triggering the termination of the trace dynamically sizes the trace at runtime of the program.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus obtains first update firmware data from a server apparatus, holds the first update firmware data in a volatile storage medium, and stores version information of the first update firmware data in a non-volatile storage medium. The apparatus performs an update process of updating the firmware stored in the non-volatile storage medium, using the first update firmware data held in the volatile storage medium. The apparatus restores the firmware from an error state that accompanies the update process being abnormally terminated, based on second update firmware data, and decides whether or not to obtain update firmware data corresponding to the stored version information from the server apparatus based on the stored version information after the restoration.

Abstract: Embodiments of systems and methods to provide a firmware update to devices configured in a redundant configuration in an Information Handling System (IHS) are disclosed. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an IHS may include first and second Remote Access Controllers (RACs) that each includes computer-executable instructions to receive, by the first RAC, a firmware update image associated with the firmware device, and commence transfer of the firmware update image to the firmware device to perform a firmware update on the firmware device using an update mode that restricts another update request to the firmware device until the first RAC finishes or cancels the firmware update. When the transfer is halted prior to completion, the program instructions cause the second RAC to determine where the firmware update image transfer was halted, and commence transferring the remainder of the firmware update image that has not yet been transferred to the firmware device.

Abstract: A test case management tool integrated in a project management tool can include user interface elements supported by backend databases and a test case library database. The user interface elements can include an option for a user to request an automatic artificial intelligence-based recommendation for a ticket project stored in the project management tool. The automatic test case selection includes LLM summarization of the test cases in the test case library database, and semantic searching of ticket data against the summaries. Results can be improved by generating relationship counters, based on the relationships identified in the test case library database, scoring each test case, based on the relationship counters, and selecting higher scored test cases.

Abstract: Test cases written to test a software application can be dynamically distributed among different sets of test cases that can be executed simultaneously in different parallel threads, thereby speeding up testing relative to executing the test cases sequentially in a single thread. Although executing the test cases in parallel threads can cause the test cases to execute in a different order than intended by developers, any test cases that fail due to database conflicts or other errors as a result of the parallelization can be retried at least once. Re-executing failed test cases at a later time can lead to the full set of test cases ultimately succeeding, despite errors that may have been caused by the parallelization.
