Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for predicting critical events using log data. One example method includes receiving an event regarding a visible portion of a window of a programming editor used to display software source code. A currently visible portion of the programming editor window and a content type of the software source code are identified. Syntax rules associated with the content type are determined. Dynamic formatting rules are determined based on the syntax rules of the content type and the currently visible portion of the programming editor window. The dynamic formatting rules are applied to display the software source code in the currently visible portion of the programming editor window in response to the event.

Abstract: A method for developing software in which the software comprises a plurality of programs. A change to a program is received. A data structure checking procedure may then be invoked. The changed program is parsed for a reference to a data structure. Other instances of the data structure are located in other programs within the software. The referenced data structure is compared to the located other instances of the data structure. A predefined action (such as notifying a programmer or correcting the inconsistencies) is performed in response to any detected differences between the referenced data structure and the located other instances of the data structure. These steps are repeated for all data structures within the changed program.

Abstract: An information processing device may obtain, from a target object, first access information and first information. The information processing device may send the obtained first information to a first server. The information processing device may receive, from the first server, identification information unique to the first information and second access information. The information processing device may store the received identification information in a storage and send an access request information to a second server. The information processing device may download an application program from the second server, install the application program, and accept an instruction for activating the application program. The information processing device may send the identification information to the first server and receive the first information from the first server. The information processing device may establish a connection with the external device by using the first information and execute a communication processing.

Abstract: A variation testing system for performing variation testing of content is disclosed. The variation testing system allows an experimenter to continuously monitor the results of the variation test. In order to ensure that the experimenter is provided with valid results, the variation testing system may reset the variation test.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to serializing and de-serializing objects. In aspects, a serialization engine uses a grammar to serialize data into a binary representation. The serialization engine may call upon a host serialization engine to serialize embedded object that are not directly supported by the environment hosting the serialization engine. The serialization engine may encode the grammar used to serialize the data into the serialized data for use in de-serializing the data. After the object is serialized, the serialized data may be de-serialized when desired by using the grammar. The grammar is such that it causes embedded objects and relationships to be preserved in the serialized representation of the object.

Abstract: The current document is directed to virtualized PMUs provided by virtualization layers. The currently disclosed virtualized PMUs are decoupled from the underlying PMU hardware features of processors on which the virtualization layer executes. The decoupling is achieved, in part, by time multiplexing the underlying hardware PMU registers to provide a greater number of virtualized PMU registers than the number of hardware-PMU registers provided by at least some of the underlying hardware PMUs. The decoupling is also achieved by providing for monitoring, by the virtualized PMU registers, of computed processor events and approximated processor events in addition to the processor events monitored by the underlying hardware PMUs.

Abstract: A method for agile software development comprises receiving by a VM a command by a first version of a software component running on a first virtual machine, wherein the command may be executed by the software component, passing the command to a hypervisor along with an output file including a functionality identifier corresponding to the command and identifiers for versions of the software component to which the command is applicable, and transferring the command to a second VM for an execution of the functionality if the identifier of the second version of the software component was included in the output file. Additionally, the method may include sending a freeze command by the hypervisor to the second virtual machine if the identifier of the second version of the software component is not included in the output file.

Abstract: A method to manage a global feature library is provided herein. The method provides a global feature library with a plurality of features defined therein. The global feature library includes a feature switch for each of the plurality of features. The feature switch is useable with an application code. The feature switch is linked to an application code. The feature switch includes a feature value that turns a feature associated with the feature switch on and off based on a global value rule. The global rule is transmitted to a client device capable of storing the feature value in-memory.

Abstract: A method and/or computer program that incorporates isolation principles of separate address spaces and enforces the principles with a compiler and supporting runtime through a language-based model is disclosed. This approach significantly lowers the required overhead and retains the beneficial qualities of the scalable, isolated model. The model is implemented in a programming language where memory-based state is partitioned into a plurality of domains where the variables inside of a domain are isolated from external components. Agents are introduced inside of the domain and act on behalf of clients outside of the domain. The agents communicate with their clients via message-passing to enforce the isolation of the domain state. The domain-based isolation addresses the partitioning of memory-based state without the introduction of separate processes. Domains can also be used in conjunction with a distributed model either within a single computing device or between computing devices.

Abstract: A processor may perform conditional just-in-time (JIT) compilation. An example method may comprise: identifying, by the processor, a defined pattern in a byte stream derived from a high level programming language module; evaluating a conditional expression associated with the defined pattern, wherein the conditional expression comprises an execution platform identifier; and compiling the byte stream into a native code, while excluding, in view of the evaluating, a portion of byte stream associated with the defined pattern.
