  • Patent number: 11782816
    Abstract: Mapping input locations to enable execution of second executable code using trace data gathered during execution of first executable code. A trace of a prior execution of the first code, and the second code, are accessed. The trace stores data of an input that was consumed by first executable instructions of the first code. It is determined that the stored data of the input is usable as an input to second executable instructions of the second code. A difference in how the first instructions accessed the input during recording, as compared to how the second instructions expect to access input, is identified. Based on the identified difference, a location transformation is determined that would enable the second instructions to access the stored data. Execution of the second instructions is emulated using the stored data, including projecting the location transformation to enable the second instructions to access the stored data.

  • Patent number: 11775287
    Abstract: A system receives one or more software artifacts for enabling a software version change requested for a production environment associated with at least one data center location. The system stores the one or more software artifacts in a memory location of a controlled-access production repository. The system receives a first authorization determination of the one or more software artifacts from an author-user account, the author-user account associated with a developer identity that created the one or more software artifacts. The system receives a second authorization determination of the one or more software artifacts from an additional-user account. Based on the first and second authorization determinations, the system determines whether to package the one or more software artifacts into a manifest for transmission to the at least one data center location.

  • Patent number: 11775351
    Abstract: A method for processing data on a programmable logic controller includes a priority with a predetermined priority level assigned to at least one parallel processing section of a program of a master-processor core of a control task. Respective priority levels are inserted into a data structure as the respective master-processor core arrives at the parallel processing section. A parallel-processor core examines whether entries are present in the data structure and processes partial tasks from a work package of the master-processor core the priority level of which ranks first among the entries. A real-time condition of the control task is met by setting executing times of the programs for the master-processor core so that the master-processor core is capable of processing the partial tasks from the work packages without being supported by the parallel-processor core. The master-processor core further processes partial tasks not processed by the at least one parallel-processor core.

  • Patent number: 11734000
    Abstract: A system and method for automatically generating cross-application dependency maps for enterprise IT environments is described. Automated code parsing techniques are used to identify dependencies between and among different business applications within the IT environment, including for both legacy and modern business applications. A thorough analysis of the enterprise-wide impact of a programming change, such as, for example, a change to the code of a legacy business application, can be conducted. There is the ability to perform canonical and customized searches of dependent elements between components of the IT environment and generate impact reports that can show how desired changes to particular applications may affect the environment. The impact of changes in a code repository, which can include documents in different programming languages that reside in a separate code environment, can be identified and analyzed.
