Abstract: A library model addition engine adds library models to a library knowledge base by defining a template for a library configuration file that conveys information about each library model, custom inputs and code snippets to facilitate library comparison operations, and education content for the library model, where the library configuration file template may be automatically filled by populating selected data fields in the template with information identifying the library model, scraping documentation pages to extract test cases, and then scraping test case code to extract the test case input parameters for input to an input/output matching engine to evaluate a repository of code snippets and identify a set of functionally similar code snippets for inclusion one or more data fields in the template.

Abstract: A method and system determine a potential impact from software upgrades on a computing device. A device configuration is identified for a first computing device based on the software and hardware elements currently present. Other computing devices are identified in the network having installed the software application upgrade. A history of operating behavior associated with the software application upgrade is retrieved. The profile is analyzed for each of the other computing devices for conflicts with the software application. A determination is made as to whether the software application upgrade will potentially cause a failure in the first computing device based on the history of operating behavior associated with the software application upgrade and based on a state of similarity between the analyzed profile for each of the other computing devices and the profile of the first computing device. The end user is presented with a risk-based recommendation.

Abstract: Techniques are described to automate deployment of an application as a cloud computing service. Such deployment may be accomplished on any underlying host infrastructure. As mentioned above, a typical application may engage in a number of build and deployment processes in order to run on a host computer with an infrastructure type. The techniques described herein may leverage an artificial intelligence computation library to identify which build and deployment processes are required by the application. Once identified, the user may select a host infrastructure type and create a container package with a runtime machine and components configure to run these build and deployment processes for that host infrastructure type. The container package may be used to generate an image from which the host computer can run the application as the cloud computing service. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques that may be used to automate testing of services on mobile devices using visual analysis. In some embodiments, a machine learning model is trained using interaction data received from a number of mobile devices by correlating user selections with visual elements (e.g., icons). During execution of a testing routine on a mobile device, screenshots are obtained of a screen of the mobile device and provided to the machine learning model. An action is generated based on the provided screenshot that simulates a user action (e.g., a user touch on the screen of the mobile device) at a location of an icon or other visual element associated with the testing routine. These steps are repeated until an end-state of the testing routine is detected.

Abstract: Methods and systems for transforming bytecodes using virtual artifacts are disclosed. In one aspect, a method is provided that includes receiving a build request to convert source code into a first bytecode. A first virtual artifact may be identified within the source code and it may be determined that a local repository does not store the first virtual artifact. A real artifact that corresponds to the first virtual artifact may be retrieved from a centralized repository. A bytecode transformation may be applied to the real artifact to generate a second bytecode and the second bytecode may be added to the first bytecode.

Abstract: A method and system of over the air (OTA) reprogramming of a systems of a vehicle performed by an OTA reprogramming device are provided. For example, the method includes determining whether a vehicle ignition is on or off. When the vehicle ignition is on, the method includes sending a classic controller area network (CAN) message comprising information to operate a transmission control unit (TCU), and using the classic CAN message to operate the TCU. When the vehicle ignition is off, the method includes sending a CAN flexible-data (FD) message comprising information to reprogram the TCU, and using the CAN FD message to reprogram the TCU. The method waits until an ignition of the vehicle is off to reprogram the TCU to avoid incompatibilities with a CAN FD message.

Abstract: A processor records a trace of execution of an execution entity, including recording initial processor register state into the trace. The recorded initial processor register state includes a value of at least one register of a plurality of registers. Subsequent to recording initial processor register state, and based on detection of a cache miss during execution of the execution entity, the processor records an influx of data imported into the processor cache in response to the cache miss. Also subsequent to recording initial processor register state, and based on execution of a non-deterministic processor instruction of the execution entity, the processor records at least one side effect of an access to at least one model-specific register, including recording a change in the value of the at least one register of the plurality of registers. The change results from the execution of the non-deterministic processor instruction of the execution entity.

From the multiple payloads unique payloads are identified. User data that corresponds to the unique payloads is created. A first testing environment conducts a test using software components in the production environment, the unique payloads, and the user data to generate expected results. A second testing environment conducts a test using new software that replaces at least one of the software components in the production environment, the unique payloads, and the user data, to generate actual results. The one or more attributes in the expected results are compared to the one or more attributes in the actual results to determine if the new software causes an error.
