Abstract: Improved techniques for asynchronously displaying the results of a codebase analysis service are provided herein. Initially, machine learning is applied to a corpus of model code. In doing so, a machine learning model is generated, where the model identifies coding practices that are included in the corpus of model code. After this model is generated, then the model is applied to a current codebase by comparing coding practices of the current codebase to the identified coding practices that were extracted, or rather identified, from the corpus of model code. Then, in response to detecting one or more differences between the current codebase's coding practices and the identified coding practices, where the differences satisfy a pre-determined difference threshold, a user interface is caused to display one or more insights. These insights beneficially provide additional detailed information describing the differences.

Abstract: Technologies are provided for bypassing control logic of an electronic device and writing a trusted firmware to a storage location of the device. The device can comprise a bypass communication channel that, when enabled, allows a connected host computer to access a storage medium and/or onboard memory of the device without using the device's control logic. A device controller can be configured to receive a firmware update mode command from a connected host computer and to enable the bypass communication channel. In at least some embodiments, the controller is configured to reject the update mode command unless it is received as part of an initial communication from the host computer during a boot sequence of the electronic device. In a different or further embodiment, the controller is configured to determine that the command is authorized before enabling the bypass communication channel.

Abstract: To curb deterioration of user convenience due to software update of a water warmer in a communication system between a management server and the water warmer through a relay device. A communication adaptor executes first communication for inquiring of the water warmer whether or not software update accompanying writing of an update program is capable of being started. The water warmer gives a notification for obtaining a user's consent to occurrence of an unavailable period of the water warmer due to the software update in response to the first communication, and executes second communication on the communication adaptor in a case in which the user's consent is obtained with respect to the notification. The communication adaptor transmits the update program received from a server to the water warmer in response to the second communication, and the water warmer executes the software update using the received update program.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to performing risk-based software validation and to applying change control when upgrading a software application. In one scenario, a computer system calculates a risk score for features in a software application. This risk score indicates a relative level of risk for installing and using the software application. The computer system performs internal usage testing to determine how the software application is recommended for use, and conducts use tests to determine how a specified client uses the features of the software application as compared to the determined recommended use. Then, based on the calculated risk and the determined use of the features, the computer system provides a recommendation for the specified client indicating which portions of the software application are to undergo client-specific validation. In another scenario, a computer system applies change control when upgrading a software application from a first version to a second version.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for external storage and organization of documentation for computer-executable source code. An executable program is provided that receives a selected codebase as input and generates or updates a code comment database corresponding thereto that provides a structured framework for documenting the codebase externally from the codebase. The executable program provides a user with the capability to add and/or edit comments for each structure in a codebase that is represented in a corresponding code comment database. A user can navigate through a code comment database using a user interface that includes a visual representation of a nested hierarchy of functions of the codebase. The visual representation can be manipulated by a user to provide an identification of arguments, variables, called functions, or the like for each function. Code documentation can also be displayed in association with the visual representation.
