Abstract: A system and method for rearranging algebraic expressions occurring in program code based on a scheme of ranking operands. The system scans program code to identify an algebraic expression specified by the program code. The expression includes binary operations, scalar operands and at least one array operand. The system operates on the algebraic expression to obtain a final expression by: computing a rank for each of the operands; and performing algebraic transformations on selected subexpressions of the algebraic expression so that in the final expression operands are combined in the order of their rank. The ranking scheme may be designed to force scalars to be combined before arrays, and/or, to force constants to be combined first, loop invariants second, and variants last. In some embodiments, the ranking scheme is a vector ranking scheme including two or more components (such as invariance rank, dimensional rank and data-size rank).

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for provisioning software to machines in a set of diverse networks. A provisioning (or “cobbler”) server can interact with a remote installation client to initiate a software provisioning process to machines installed on two or more diverse networks, such as local area, wide area, virtual private, or other networks. The remote installation clients in different networks can report the network interface types and configurations of their networks to the cobbler server. During provisioning, the administrator can specify one software distribution to the entire set of diverse networks, and the cobbler server can generate different distribution versions tailored to the network configurations of the various different networks.
