Abstract: Computer code written to execute on a multi-threaded computing environment is transformed into code designed to execute on a single-threaded computing environment and simulate concurrent executing threads. Optimization techniques during the transformation process are utilized to identify local variables for scalar expansion. A first set of local variables is defined that includes those local variables in the code identified as “Downward exposed Defined” (DD). A second set of local variables is defined that includes those local variables in the code identified as “Upward exposed Use” (UU). The intersection of the first set and the second set identifies local variables for scalar expansion.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for use in applying an update to a communication protocol in a software application that is executed by a computing device are described herein. The computing device receives a protocol definition corresponding to a communication protocol and indicating positions of data elements within data objects corresponding to the communication protocol. When the computing device determines that the received protocol definition differs from a previous protocol definition corresponding to the communication protocol, the computing device creates a machine-executable object parser based on the received protocol definition. The machine-executable object parser is accessible to a software application executed by the computing device. The software application receives a data object corresponding to the communication protocol, and the computing device executes the machine-executable object parser to parse at least a portion of the data elements in the data object received by the software application.
