Abstract: Techniques for assessing and managing versions of a configuration file associated with a modular control system of a process plant are described. According to certain aspects, systems and methods device may access data associated with multiple versions of a configuration file, including a computing device version and a control version, as well as a last backup instance of the configuration file. The systems and methods may compare the versions and determine any discrepancies between the versions, including which of the versions is the most recent. The systems and methods may present information associated with the comparison to enable a user to select which of the versions may be need to be updated, resolved, or provided to the controller so that the modular control system may be properly configured.

One or more processors send instructions not to scan the one or more memory locations against a second software signature.

Abstract: Provided are a universal software installer and/or uninstaller. The universal software installer determines a structure of the software to be installed and verifies all necessary software elements are applied or installed on the endpoint during the install. The universal software uninstaller determines a structure of the software to be uninstalled and verifies all related software elements are removed from the endpoint. The universal software installer and/or uninstaller is independent of an operating system platform executing on the endpoint.

Abstract: A payment service system may include a server that manages firmware updates for payment devices such as payment readers. A payment reader may access a firmware manifest including a listing of current firmware assets stored at the payment reader, and send the firmware manifest to the server. The server may compare the firmware manifest to available firmware bundles, which are ordered combinations of firmware assets that have been released for usage by payment readers. Some of the bundles may be blocking bundles, while some are non-blocking. If a payment reader is to be updated with a blocking bundle, it cannot process payments during the update. If the update is not a blocking bundle, the payment reader may continue to process payments.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for removing bugs present in a software code. A determination module determines a usage pattern of a software code by using an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) technique. A comparison module compares the usage pattern with a set of pre-stored usage patterns of software applications similar to the software code. An execution module executes a set of test suites, on the software code, associated to at least one software application of the software applications, when a usage pattern of the at least one software application is matched with the usage pattern of the software code. An identification module identifies a code snippet comprising the bug. A recommendation module recommends a code patch, corresponding to the code snippet, from a ranked list of code patches determined by a Deep RNN technique. Further, a replacement module replaces the code snippet with the code patch thereby removing the bug.
