According to further aspects, transferable CLI views are provided that can be saved in a portable file format and distributed amongst various network devices. The subject disclosure, therefore, provides for greatly increased efficiency and scalability with respect to configuration and implementation of IOS CLI views.

Abstract: A method and system for sharing data between a calling application and a callee application. A callee application receives a request for processing data owned and stored by the calling application in a data table. The callee application receives a document to which containers that include data elements from the data table are attached in a predefined order. The callee application identifies element types corresponding to the containers based on a mapping interface table. The callee application unloads data elements from the containers into a data store via the predefined order and associates the data elements with the corresponding element types. The callee application processes the data according to the request. The processing includes applying a business rule to a data element based on the business rule being associated with an element type of the data element. Only the callee application has knowledge of the applied business rule.

Abstract: A multi-tier attribute tracking mechanism identifies end user credentials and other client information and attributes and assigns them to database requests in an application server architecture. Disclosed configurations identify the processing unit, or thread, assigned by the operating system to service the incoming request from the user at the application tier. A matching of users to threads allows successive thread activity to be mapped back to the initiating user. Conventional interception of database access attempts at the application level (“server taps,” or staps) identified only the database user (the account in the database) and associated connection as the responsible user. By intercepting, or “tapping” the access request at the operating system level (using kernel taps, or “ktaps”), the mechanism matches which application requests map to which database requests. With this matching, the database requests can be tagged with the user credentials which are known through the application request.

Abstract: A method for operating a binary executable in which some of the data or code is to be protected includes the step of pruning the binary executable of the code andor data to be protected. Nonfunctional code is substituted for the code pruned from the binary executable, to form a pruned executable which does not contain the code to be protected. The code pruned from the binary executable is loaded into a code injection service or program (CIS). The binary executable is placed in memory as with any application. Invoking the pruned executable alone results in crash. The CIS is made part of the operating system service, and is loaded into RAM when the computer starts. When the pruned executable is invoked, the CIS detects its presence, and as the pruned executable runs, the CIS substitutes the actual data or code into the pruned executable, whereby it operates normally.

Abstract: Embodiments herein present a system, method, etc. for an efficient super cluster implementation for solving connected problems in a distributed environment. More specifically, the system adapts computing latency to communication latency, wherein the system comprises VPPs wrapped within OCW layers. The VPPs represent a subset of an overall computer task; and, the OCW layers are adapted to enclose the VPPs. Specifically, the number of OCWs that enclose a VPP correspond to the number of computing iterations that may be locally executed by the VPP during an inter-VPP communication cycle. In addition, each VPP comprises collections of OPCs, wherein the OPCs comprise data, methods, and pointers to neighbors. The OPCs are indexed separately based on whether the OPC is part of an OCW layer.
