Abstract: A method and system for asynchronous code testing. Test cases are generated from an input code that includes code blocks organized in a hierarchy of nesting levels characterized by respective nesting level numbers that increase with increasing separation of each respective nesting level from a reference level of the total input code. Each test case includes a respective launching priority that quantifies how strongly each test case is associated with at least one modified code block of the input code. Generating the test cases determines the respective launching priority for each test case by (i) determining an association strength of each modified code block as measured by the nesting level in the hierarchy of each modified code block and (ii) computing the launching priority as a sum of the association strengths of the modified code blocks. The test cases are run to produce a test result which is displayed.

Abstract: Embodiments comprise systems, methods and media for updating CRTM code in a computing machine. In one embodiment, the CRTM code initially resides in ROM and updated CRTM is stored in a staging area of the ROM. A logical partition of L2 cache may be created to store a heap and a stack and a data store. The data store holds updated CRTM code copied to the L2 cache. When a computing system is started, it first executes CRTM code. The CRTM code checks the staging area of the ROM to determine if there is updated CRTM code. If so, then CRTM code is copied into the L2 cache to be executed from there. The CRTM code loads the updated code into the cache and verifies its signature. The CRTM code then copies the updated code into the cache where the current CRTM code is located.

Abstract: It is possible to increase the processor instruction set design job efficiency and reduce workload on designers in investigation of an instruction set. An instruction operation code generation system includes an operation code bit width decision means, an instruction sorting means, and an operation code value decision means. The operation code bit width decision means decides a bit width that can be assigned for an operation code of each instruction according to specification data associated with a processor instruction set. The instruction sorting means sorts the instructions according to the operation code bit width. The operation code value decision means decides the value of the operation code of each instruction.

Abstract: A system and associated method for asynchronous code testing in an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The IDE has components of a source code editor, an impact analyzer, a test case launcher, a graphical user interface (GUI), and a database. All components run concurrently for asynchronous and real-time code editing. Upon modification of a code block of an input code, a test case is automatically generated and a launching priority is calculated based on the relationship between the modified code block and each code block affected by the modification. Generated test cases are automatically run by the test case launcher or manually selected by the user to produce a test run result.

Abstract: A computer-implemented technique for analysis of software, is carried out using a semantic intensity calculation module, a coupling calculation module, and a software decomposition module. Software elements are identified in a computer program code, and respective roles of the software elements established. With the semantic intensity calculation module respective semantic intensity metrics are calculated for the software elements according to the roles thereof. With the coupling calculation module semantic intensity metrics are calculated to determine coupling factors between different software elements. With the software decomposition module the software elements are organized into distinct software components according to the coupling factors therebetween. Then, an optimized computer program code is generated from the software components.

Abstract: A tool supports management of engineering project changes using a current design diagram with links to implementation components, a proposed design diagram, and a work list of tasks for transforming the current design into the proposed design. Tasks recite intended changes such as add, remove, or refactor, with reference to implementation components to be changed, and tracking information. Work list tasks may be automatically generated based on design model differences correlated with project code, automatically generated based on tracked user design actions correlated with project code, and/or manually generated by users. Work lists may be exported. Users can mark a relationship for removal and view a corresponding updated work list. Users can trace impact of a work list on project context such as testing coverage, database structures, and user scenarios.

Abstract: A method of serving a web page includes separating an original web page into a server-side executable portion and a server-side static portion. The server-side static portion is replaced with an identifier, and then a client-side executable program is created that will replace the identifier with the server-side static portion. The client-side executable program may be compressed in such a way that the server-side executable portion is stored in its original format. In response to a client request, the web server executes the resulting program and transmits the output to the requesting client. At the client, the response is decompressed if necessary and the client-side executable program is executed to integrated the server-side static portion with the server-side execution result.

Abstract: A software deployment method creates and provides an installation parameter file for each computer to be deployed according to a software deployment task. The installation parameter file of each computer to be deployed is used to guide a network installation of software on the computer. A corresponding software deployment system, a software deployment server, and a software deployment user server are also provided. The installation parameter files are generated collectively according to the software deployment tasks, so that the computer equipment is guided by the installation parameter file to install the software automatically. Therefore, the software deployment on the computers in batches is more convenient. Moreover, as the installation parameter file corresponds to each computer to be deployed, the software type and the parameter configuration of each computer to be deployed can be adjusted flexibly, which facilitates the customization of the software.
