  • Patent number: 10089211
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus comprises: an insertion unit that inserts, into a class file that corresponds to one application, a first bytecode for tallying information about a resource used by an object generated by execution of a bytecode that is included in the class file; and a tallying unit that, if an application generates an object, tallies information about a resource used by the object generated by the application, wherein the one application that has executed the first bytecode is identified by execution of the first bytecode, the one application thus identified and information about a resource used by a generated object are registered to a storage unit in association with each other, and the tallying unit tallies a resource usage amount for each application based on the information registered to the storage unit.

  • Patent number: 10073723
    Abstract: Methods and systems for dynamic range-based messaging may include one or more processors configured to implement a dynamic range-based messaging system configured to receive, from respective producers of multiple producers, requests for indices to add respective messages to a contiguous message array. The system may assign, to the respective producers, next available indices. The system may populate the contiguous message array with messages from the respective producers at respective assigned indices. The system may compute a range of messages in the contiguous message array ready to be consumed, where the range starts at an initial index. The system may determine a highest assigned index from the initial index when a quantity of indices assigned from the initial index matches a quantity of messages populated within the range. The system may indicate that the computed range of messages in the contiguous message array is ready to be consumed.

  • Patent number: 10042638
    Abstract: Evaluating documentation coverage can include identifying, from a testing tool having exercised an application, interface elements of the application's user interface. The identified interface elements are filtered to identify documentable interface objects. For each identified documentable interface object, it is determined if documentation exists for that documentable interface object. A value, indicative of the determined existence or non-existence of documentation, is assigned to each documentable interface object. Documentation coverage data is reported for the application interface. The coverage data is reflective of the values assigned to the documentable interface objects.

  • Patent number: 10031731
    Abstract: A method is provided for checking invariants in parallel programs using dynamic instrumentation. Invariants are provided in the source code as conventional functions and can be activated or deactivated by a user. The program is instrumented prior to or during execution of the program to allow interception of an access to the main memory unit. The addresses of the memory locations on which an invariant is dependent are automatically recorded to allow a determination of changes to the addresses. A central data structure stores an invariant for each thread, associated memory address locations, and a Boolean value indicating whether the recording process is active. A corresponding library function is requested for each load command and each storage command via the instrumentation, records the respective addresses in the event of loading commands as long as the recording process is activated, and checks the respective invariants in the event of storage commands.

  • Patent number: 10025634
    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system. The system includes a high availability module and a data transformation module. During operation, the high availability module identifies a modified object belonging to an application in a second system. A modification to the modified object is associated with a transaction identifier. The high availability module also identifies a local object corresponding to the modified object associated with a standby application corresponding to the application in the second system. The data transformation module automatically transforms the value of the modified object to a value assignable to the local object, including pointer conversion to point to equivalent object of the second system. The high availability module updates the current value of the local object with the transformed value.

  • Patent number: 9996404
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for message cache management for message queues is provided. A plurality of messages from a plurality of enqueuers are enqueued in a queue comprising one or more shards, each shard comprising one or more subshards. A message cache is maintained in memory. Enqueuing a message includes enqueuing the message in a current subshard of a particular shard, which includes storing the message in a cached subshard corresponding to the current subshard of the particular shard. For each dequeuer-shard pair, a dequeue rate is determined. Estimated access time data is generated that includes an earliest estimated access time for each of a plurality of subshards based on the dequeuer-shard pair dequeue rates. A set of subshards is determined for storing as cached subshards in the message cache based on the earliest estimated access times for the plurality of subshards.

  • Patent number: 9983853
    Abstract: The embodiments are related to a log framework for controlling data sampling at client devices based on a lifecycle of a product. A product can be an application executing on a client device and/or a feature of the application. The sampling of data depends on a lifecycle of the product. For example, data may be sampled at a higher rate during a launch phase of the product, e.g., as more data may be required to analyze the behavior of the product, and then may be decreased to a lower rate when the product matures. Similarly, for a product that is in an experiment phase for a specified duration, data may be logged during the experiment phase, e.g., at a constant sampling rate, and then the logging may be terminated at the expiry of the experiment phase, thereby saving resources, e.g., processing capacity, storage capacity of the client device.

  • Patent number: 9977662
    Abstract: A method for a dynamic adapter design pattern is described. The method comprises receiving an object comprising object data, wherein the object is associated with an application context. A first type of the object is determined, and the object data is depicted in a first manner determined by the first type. A target type is determined based on the application context. A conversion mechanism is selected from a plurality of conversion mechanisms based on the first type and the target type. The conversion mechanism is applied to the object of the first type to create a new object of the target type. To apply the conversion mechanism, the object is converted from the first type to the target type, wherein the object data is depicted in a second manner determined by the target type, and a field of object data is modified based on the target type.

  • Patent number: 9971637
    Abstract: A data distribution computer system. The system comprises a data store, a non-transitory memory, a processor, and a data propagation application stored in the non-transitory memory. When executed by the processor, the application initiates execution of a plurality of data propagation agents in a restricted runtime environment and provides information to the agents identifying data that is available in the data store via a discovery application programming interface (API). The application further provides data from the data store to the agents via a data access API, where the data propagation application manages the scheduling of the agents and restricts the data in the data store that is propagated to the agents based on an access policy for each agent.
