Abstract: A method for automatically identifying a root cause of customer dissatisfaction with a software product and creating feedback items to improve the software product includes collecting engagement data pertaining to interactions between a customer and a flow of visual elements presented by the software product and detecting a trigger event indicating that the customer is dissatisfied with the software product. In response to the trigger event and based at least in part on the engagement data, a potential deficiency of the software product is automatically identified and a repair ticket is generated for a development team. The repair ticket identifies the potential deficiency of the software product.

Abstract: A human-machine interface (HMI) development system supports a custom textual domain-specific language (DSL) for describing and developing HMI applications. The custom DSL comprises user domain elements corresponding to elements used within the context of a graphical HMI editor, and can be used to describe all aspects of an HMI application in terms of these user domains. Since the DSL is a textual syntax, this approach also allows HMI applications to be developed using any text editor. The DSL can be used to define, using text-based programming, such HMI properties as the graphical elements to be included in the HMI application, element layouts in reference to other graphical elements, element behaviors and actions, commands and custom executable code for specific interactions of the graphics.

Abstract: A network manager for delivering a firmware/software program to multi-mode nodes and single-mode nodes arranged in a multi-hop wireless IoT network. The network manager includes a transceiver configured to perform wireless communication by transmitting the encoded packets of the firmware/software program to the first-hop nodes. The network manager divides firmware/software program into source blocks, encodes the source blocks into encoded blocks based on coding scheme, packs the encoded blocks into encoded packets, and transmits the encoded packets to the first-hop nodes. The first-hop nodes may be configured to receive, decode, re-encode and re-transmit the encoded packets. The network manager keeps broadcasting the encoded packets to the first-hop nodes until a predetermined percent of the first-hop nodes receive the firmware/software program.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, devices, and computer program products are described. A system may collect a first set of profiling data associated with computational resource consumption of one or more code implementations or methods. The system may use a vector embedding translation to convert the profiling data into one or more vector spaces. Each vector space may include a set of vectors, and each vector may correspond to an execution of a code implementation or method.

In some cases, the system may collect and convert a second set of real-time profiling data into vector spaces, which the system may compare to the model representation such that users may identify deviations from resource consumption footprints.

In some examples, the portable binary file may include a first set of scripts for orchestrating query requests for the federated API and a second set of scripts for orchestrating communications between the web browser of the client host and the first set of scripts. The federation management service may then execute, within the web browser of the client host, a query of the federated API using the first set of scripts and the second set of scripts.

Abstract: Systems and methods of determining and providing optimized deployment plans for deploying software to vehicles are disclosed. In some embodiments, a vehicle software deployment system evaluates one or more cost functions to determine relative costs of different deployment configuration options for deploying software to a vehicle, such as resource costs (e.g., bandwidth, compute, memory, etc.), isolation costs (e.g., limited access to input information, limited connectivity to other ECUs, etc.), performance costs, etc. Based on the evaluation of the one or more cost functions, the vehicle software deployment system determines an optimized deployment plan. Also, the vehicle software deployment system receives telemetry data from the vehicle and automatically determines updated optimized deployment plans in response to changes in configuration of the vehicle indicated in the telemetry data.
