  • Patent number: 11861417
    Abstract: A peripheral information acquisition unit (121) acquires information relating to a first application (13a) running in a terminal, information relating to control of the terminal, or information that can be acquired from a sensor included in the terminal, as peripheral information. The peripheral information acquired by the peripheral information acquisition unit (121) is accumulated in a peripheral information accumulation unit (122).

  • Patent number: 11818223
    Abstract: Inter-session automation for RPA is disclosed. A robot or another application or process running in the user session may interact with an application, but one or more attended RPA robots in one or more child sessions perform operations and fetch data that the user session robot will then use to interact with the application in the user session. Attended RPA robots in client sessions may share data through an IPC protocol, by storing data in a persistent data store, such as a spreadsheet, an object-oriented database, a plain text file, another data store or file, etc. The user session robot or another application or process running in the parent session can then read this information and respond accordingly.

  • Patent number: 11809882
    Abstract: An electronic device receives an interface calling request for a target interface in an application program. The interface calling request includes interface calling information of the target interface. The device performs an interface query in a simulated interface set that simulates real interfaces in the application program. In accordance with a determination, based on the interface query, that a target simulation interface corresponding to the target interface exists in the simulated interface set, the device intercepts the interface calling request. The device compares the intercepted interface calling information with interface configuration information of the target simulated interface. In accordance with a determination that the interface calling information matches the interface configuration information, the device obtains simulated response data corresponding to the target simulation interface. The device outputs calling response data of the interface calling request.

  • Patent number: 11789752
    Abstract: Provided herein are system, method and computer program products for providing dynamically-updatable deep transactional monitoring of running applications in real-time. A method for monitoring a target software application operates by injecting a software engine into a new thread within a target process of the target software application. The method then retrieves a monitoring script and initiates execution of the monitoring script within the software engine. The monitoring script determining the address functions and calls to the functions and inserts a trampoline call within the one or more functions. The trampoline saves the execution state of the target process and calls a corresponding monitoring function that to retrieves data associated with the target process. The method then restoring the execution state of the target process and resumes execution of the target function.
