Abstract: Techniques are described for securely updating a point-of-sale (POS) system that includes a merchant-facing device and a buyer-facing device. For instance, the merchant-facing device may execute first software that provides first POS functionality and the buyer-facing device may execute second software that provides second POS functionality. To update both devices, the merchant-facing device may receive a software update from a payment service via a network connection, and update the first software using the software update. The merchant-facing device can then cause, via a physical connection, the buyer-facing device to reboot in an update mode and send the software update to the buyer-facing device. In response, the buyer-facing device can update the second software using the software update and then reboot in a payments mode. In some instances, the buyer-facing device can then update a secure enclave on the buyer-facing device using the software update.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for generating computer source code products. According to one method, an engineer creating or modifying an implementation of computer source code selects design patterns from a catalog of pre-existing design patterns. The design patterns are known abstractions that solve specific problems of computer program design and implementation. The selected design patterns are then bound to elements within a representation of the implementation known as a model. The model is then converted into a representation using elemental design patterns, and this abstraction model is used to generate the computer source code in any programming language. The abstraction model is also suitable as input for an automated inference engine for validation or verification purposes prior to or after the generation of the computer source code.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method of upgrading software defined networking (SDN) modules executing on a host computer. While a first version of the SDN modules is executing on the host computer to perform traffic processing, the method loads a second version of the SDN modules alongside the first version of the SDN modules such that the first and second versions of the SDN modules are executing on the host computer at the same time. The method saves runtime states from the first version of the SDN modules, and transfers responsibility for performing traffic processing from the first version of the SDN modules to the second version of the SDN modules. The method then restores the saved runtime states to the second version of the SDN modules.
