Abstract: Methods and computer-readable media are disclosed herein for generating asynchronous runtime compatible applications from non-asynchronous applications. In embodiments, source code for the application that is not compatible with asynchronous processing is examined. The source code is parsed in order to identify unsafe functions that will cause failures of the application when processed in an asynchronous runtime. The source code corresponding to those unsafe functions is modified by adding asynchronous functions and commands to the source code and restructuring the source code. The modified source code may then be provided to an asynchronous runtime environment as the application is now compatible with asynchronous processing.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for translating code segments from one high-level programming language to another. The system may maintain any suitable number of decoding computing modules each configured to translate code of a corresponding language to an intermediate configuration object that represents an abstracted version of the code that identifies the operations performed on one or more variables and the order by which these operations are performed in the code. The intermediate configuration object can be used to generate new code segments expressed in different programming languages. In some embodiments, generating the a new code segment in a given programming language from the intermediate configuration object can be performed by an encoding computing module that is specific to that language.

Abstract: A data-instantiator method handle is configured to instantiate a target class based on a structured data object. One type of data-instantiator method handles is a Structured Data Object Processor method handle (SDOP_mh). The runtime environment invokes a SDOP_mh to create a target object based on a name-index map and an index-value map. The SDOP_mh is adapted, directly or indirectly, from a direct method handle that references a constructor of the target class. In an embodiment, the constructor referenced by the direct method handle is a canonical constructor. In an embodiment, the SDOP_mh is a runtime-computed constant in a runtime constant pool.

A software delivery system includes aircraft having an engine control system configured to verify and install software utilized by components of the aircraft, an electronic distribution system coupled to the aircraft, an edge manager coupled to the electronic distribution system, and computing devices acting as nodes in a distributed ledger base maintaining a distributed ledger. The electronic distribution system verifies a request for software, requests software, and initiates an installation protocol with the engine control system. The edge manager maintains software. The distributed ledger base is coupled to the aircraft, the electronic distribution system, and the edge manager.

Abstract: Advising on computer software upgrade decisions for enterprise software by analyzing respective vendor information correlated to influences from user data including periodically checking for vendor software updates for selected software programs. A plurality of factors are assessed for software update risks, and the factors include dimensions of importance of each of the factors. Opinion and comments from users on public websites are collected regarding the software and the software updates. Each of the dimensions for each of one or more factors for a selected software program are weighted. The weighting is based on an importance for each of the dimensions for a respective user. A risk score is calculated based on the assessed software update risk for each dimension which includes the weighting of each of the dimensions, and a notification is sent to a user recommending the software upgrade or not based on the risk score.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a mutation test manager configured to initialize multiple computing threads configuring a computing host to perform parallel computation; mutate class files within context of each computing thread; recompile mutated class files independently in each respective computing thread to generate heterogeneous mutants; and execute pending unit tests against heterogeneous mutants independently in each respective computing thread. Consequently, the mutation testing process is decoupled from computational bottlenecks which would result from linear, sequential generation, compilation, and testing of each mutation, especially in the context of JVM® programming languages configured to generate class-rich object code.

Abstract: A system and method to automatically generate a software service to provide service layer functionalities to legacy computing systems that are inherently incompatible with a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) consumer environment.

Abstract: A method for processing database package connections and updates has been developed. First, an execution request for a database package is received. A connection context is then established which can execute the execution request. The database package is determined whether or not it is valid with proper package updates prior to establishing the connection. If the database package is determined to not be valid, change packages are retrieved for the database package. The valid change packages are then compiled for the database package and the connection request is executed for the updated database package with the connection context.

Abstract: A version management method includes the following steps: selecting a master branch; receiving bug information, wherein the bug information includes the bug state; and setting the bug state to a working state after receiving a confirmation assignment message corresponding to the bug information; in response to setting the bug state to the working state, generating a branch corresponding to the bug information based on the master branch, and merging modified code of the branch to a candidate branch; and in response to the release time arriving, merging the candidate branch to the master branch, and setting the bug state to a verification state.

Abstract: Systems and methods to specify and execute real-time streaming applications are provided. The method includes specifying an application topology for an application including spouts, bolts, connections, a global hash table, and a topology manager. Each spout receives input data and each bolt transforms the input data, the global hash table allows in memory communication between each spout and bolt to others of the spouts and the bolts. The topology manager manages the application topology. The method includes compiling the application into a shared or static library for applications, and exporting a special symbol associated with the application. The runtime system can be used to retrieve the application topology from the shared or static library based on the special symbol and execute the application topology on a single node or distribute across multiple nodes.

Abstract: An existing package definition that statically accesses data sources may be used to generate a new definition of the package that dynamically selects between available data sources at runtime. Read-only operations in the new package can be replaced with parameterized views that select between data sources using a session variable. Data manipulation code in the existing package definition can be moved from the package to a new object type. The new definition of the package may keep the same public interface, but the function/procedure definitions can call corresponding functions/procedures in the new object type. Data manipulation code in these functions in the object can be moved to new member functions that separate data manipulation code from data processing code. Child object types can be defined for each data source that override these member functions to access different data sources.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques and mechanisms for using a domain-specific language (DSL) to express and compile serverless network functions, and optimizing the deployment location for the serverless network functions on network devices. In some examples, the serverless network functions may be expressed entirely in the DSL (e.g., via a text-based editor, a graphics-based editor, etc.), where the DSL is a computer language specialized to a particular domain, such as a network function domain. In additional examples, the serverless network functions may be expressed and compiled using a DSL in combination with a general-purpose language (GSL). Once the serverless network function have been expressed and/or compiled, the techniques of this disclosure further include determining an optimized network component on which the serverless network function is to execute, and deploying the serverless function to the optimized network component.
