Abstract: Described herein is a generic hardware/software communication (HSC) channel that facilitates the re-use of pre-silicon DPI methods to enable FPGA-based post-silicon validation. The HSC channel translates a DPI interface into a hardware FIFO based mechanism. This translation allows the reuse of the methods without having to re-implement the entire flow in pure hardware. The core logic for the transactor remains the same, while only a small layer of the transactor is converted into the FIFO based mechanism.

Abstract: During software development, embodiments find various kinds of weak spots in source code and automatically suggest fixes to strengthen the code, without requiring developers to expressly select weakness finder mechanisms or fixer mechanisms by navigating a development tool's menu system. Weakness finders may analyze code using items such as hole detection, diagnostic errors, test results, changed code matches, prospective code discrepancies, generated code confidence scores, generated suggestion competition, and artificial intelligence. Weak spots and their context are submitted to weak spot fixers, which may generate fix suggestions using functionalities such as code synthesis, refactoring, autocompletion, retesting, and artificial intelligence. Fix candidate sets may be evaluated for consistency, diagnostic errors, and discrepancies. Snippets may be dynamically filled for presentation to a user.

A simulation kernel is generated that specifies an assembly language version of the kernel as instrumented.

Abstract: A mixed mode programming method permitting users to program with graphical coding blocks and textual code within the same programming tool. The mixed mode preserves the advantages of graphical block programming while introducing textual coding as needed for instructional reasons and/or for functional reasons. Converting a graphical code block or group of blocks to a textual block lets the user see a portion of the textual code in the context of a larger program. Within one programming tool the mixed mode method allows users to learn programming and build purely graphical blocks; then transition into mixed graphical and textual code and ultimately lead to their ability to program in purely textual code. The mixed mode further allows users to program using any combination of drag-and-drop graphical blocks and typed textual code in various forms.

Abstract: An analysis system receives data streams generated by instances of instrumented software executing on external systems. The analysis system evaluates an expression using data values of the data streams over a plurality of time intervals. For example, the analysis system may aggregate data values of data streams for each time interval. The analysis system determines whether or not a data stream is considered for a time interval based on when the data value arrives during the time interval. The analysis system determines a maximum expected delay value for each data stream being processed. The analysis system evaluates the expression using data values that arrive before their maximum expected delay values. The analysis system also determines a failure threshold value for a data stream. If a data value of a data stream fails to arrive before the failure threshold value, the analysis system marks the data stream as dead.

Abstract: The disclosed techniques assist in diagnosing performance problems of a software application. A profiling module dynamically instruments the application at runtime by intercepting a request to compile one of the application's functions and augmenting the function with performance measuring code. This way, instrumentation is installed without recompiling the application. The execution time of a synchronous function is tracked by adding a local variable that stores function entry time, and by inserting code at each function exit point that computes the elapsed time. The execution time of an async function that executes across multiple threads is measured by repurposing a state machine value to also store the initial function entry time. Instrumented functions that are executed at a rate exceeding a threshold are un-instrumented to avoid self-inflicted performance problems. Function invocations associated with a particular activity, such as responding to a particular web request, may be correlated.
