Abstract: A computer system for testing a user interface includes a memory circuit and a processor circuit configured to execute instructions including obtaining a state of the user interface. The instructions include setting a current position to a specified location within the user interface. The instructions include executing user interface tests to generate multiple paths. The instructions include determining a shortest path toward a goal location by identifying a path having a minimum distance that satisfies criteria. A distance for the path is based on two-dimensional distances between pairs of consecutive positions that include the current position as well as positions, along the particular path, of user interface elements requiring interaction to satisfy the criteria.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide for mechanisms for securing virtual machines in a computer system. A request for a resource is received by a processing device.

In response to a determination that the initialization of the guest application is completed, at least one system call associated with the request initiated by the guest application is blocked to reject execution of the request for the resource.

Abstract: A computer hardware system includes a machine learning engine and a hardware processor configured to perform the following executable operations. A stake in a software product is converted into feature development tokens to be stored in the digital wallet. A description of a plurality of proposed product features for the software product and previously-stored within a blockchain are forwarded to a usage user via a usage user portal. A plurality of the feature development tokens are allocated, using the usage user portal, to a selected one of the proposed product features. The digital wallet and the blockchain are updated based upon the allocating. An objective analysis is performed on the plurality of proposed product features using the machine learning engine. The blockchain is updated based upon a delivered one of the plurality of the proposed product features.

Abstract: Solutions for improving parallelization of computer programs interleave machine instruction placement in memory. A compiler decomposes a software loop in stages to interleave instructions such that, for contiguous sets of instructions having some minimum length (e.g., each set has at least two to four instructions), instructions within a set have no dependency on prior instructions within that set. This enables the compiled program to be more fully parallelized—for example, either by a superscalar processor executing the compiled program, or by the compiler turning each set of instructions into a very long instruction word (VLIW)—to automatically benefit from the disclosed interleaving of instructions that eliminates dependencies.

In particular, the one of alternative elements is associated with decision element by selected alternative relationship.

Abstract: Example computing device that may be implemented to report application status via platform binary tables are disclosed. In response to an upgrade log detected during a BIOS initialization, a platform binary table to a management agent stored in a memory is generated. An application status corresponding with the upgrade log is collected during the BIOS initialization. In response to an operating system initialization, the management agent is launched from the platform binary table to report the application status via the management agent. The upgrade log is removed.

Abstract: Tools and techniques are described to create an interface that can translate a device language into an internal language, and describe the device to the controller in terms of actors and quanta such that when a device is attached to a controller, the controller can understand what the device does and why it does it. This internal language can then be translated back to a natural language, such as English. This allows the controller to track errors, determine what upstream or downstream device and action of the device caused the error, and to track many different facts of the system that allow for detailed reports.
