Abstract: A polygon simplification computer system for performing polygon simplification within a web application pipeline has a memory device including a three-dimensional data model (3D data model), a Node.js environment, and a polygon simplification module for performing one or more polygon simplification operations on the 3D data model. The polygon simplification module has a binding component including a set of bindings that convert JavaScript into C++ source code, and a mesh simplification module comprising a C++ compiled polygon simplification framework. The polygon simplification module receives a request for the 3D data model, converts the request into a set of C++ instructions, transmits the instructions to the mesh simplification module, receives a 3D simplified data model, and transmits the 3D simplified data model to a client computing device.

Abstract: Techniques and solutions are described for detecting and correcting errors in software, such as in source code, using machine learning. A machine learning algorithm can be trained using source code, source code corrections, and extracted code features to provide a trained classifier. Test data, such as code to be scanned for errors or code known to have an error, can be submitted to the trained classifier. The classifier can generate a code correction or corrected code. Code corrections can be applied to the source code to provide corrected code.

Abstract: Embodiments of an automated anomaly detection system are disclosed that can detect anomalous data from heterogeneous data sources. The anomaly detection system can provide an automated system that identifies data anomalies within data sets received from application host systems. The anomaly detection system may identify patterns using machine learning based on data set characteristics associated with the each data set. The anomaly detection system may generate a model that can be applied to existing data sets received from the application host systems in order to automatically identify anomalous data sets. The anomaly detection system may automatically identify the anomalous data sets and implement appropriate actions based on the determination.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein are a system and method for partition-scoped patching in an application server environment. A computer environment includes an application server, for example a multitenant application server, that supports the use of one or more partitions, wherein each partition provides an administrative and runtime subdivision of a domain. During a partition-scoped rollout of a patch or update, to a resource group or application within a plurality of servers or clusters of servers, the resource group or application can be updated within a targeted partition, using a patch orchestrator and partition lifecycle runtime interface, without affecting the operation of other partitions at those servers or clusters of servers. One or more session handling flags can be used, to enable sessions and/or requests that are associated with the targeted partition, to be handled by a traffic director, during the patching process.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for identifying an optimal set of test cases of a larger test case bucket to execute on a new software release. The release includes one or more patches modifying development code of a previous release of the software, and each test case includes metadata specifying a history of the test case relative to an execution on the previous release. In each patch, it is determined, based on the metadata, whether at a test case targets the development code modified by the patch. Upon determining that the test case targets the development code, a score associated with the test case is incremented. The test cases are prioritized for execution based on score.

Abstract: Three extensions to the conventional field specialization process are disclosed. The first extension is cross-application value flows, where a value transfers out of one application and subsequently into another application. The second extension is an inter-application analysis. Static and dynamic analysis is performed by a Spiff Toolset not just on the source code of a single application, but also across the data read and written by that application. The third extension is invariant cross-application termination, verifying the possibility of an invariant originating in an application and terminating in a specialization opportunity in a separate application. An ecosystem specification is disclosed to enable such field specialization broadening.

Abstract: Some examples described herein relate to dynamically applying a patch to a shared library. An external process may be invoked to bring target processes that refer to a shared library, to a safe point. In response to a function call from a target process, amongst the target processes, to access a target function in the shared library, the function call may be forwarded to a special function in a dynamic loader, wherein the target function is a function to be patched in the shared library. The special function may determine whether a shared patch library, comprising a patched version of the target function or a new function, is loaded for the target process. In response to determination that the shared patch library is not loaded for the target process, the shared patch library may be loaded only for the target process, and the request for the target function may be routed to the patched version of the target function or the new function, in the shared patch library.

The fully-decompiled block of computer code is provided for deployment on an architecture, the deployment including lowering the semantic of the computer code to a level that corresponds to a CPU or GPU supported by the architecture.
