Publication number: 20240118444Abstract: A system to perform marine surveying may include a pair of identical design autonomous marine survey vehicles configured for coordinated operations. The vehicles may navigate and transit from a launch location to a geographically distant designated survey location, continuously survey and transit to a designated recovery location. A pair of vehicles may operate interchangeably at the sea surface, semi-submerged and underwater. Each may generate energy when operating at the surface and store energy in a rechargeable battery to power vehicle operation. The payload may include a sensor system to acquire seabed sensor data. A data storage system may store the sensor data. An on-board payload quality control system may analyze data validity. Positioning when the vehicle is collecting seabed sensor data may be determined with high precision, to provide survey data of high precision.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 16, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Applicant: Terradepth, Inc.Inventors: Josef Wolfel, Judson A. Kauffman, Andrew Resnick, Kenneth L. Childress, David L. Pearson, Joseph Curcio, Paul Holzer

Publication number: 20230418733Abstract: Mutation testing can indicate whether mutants of a software application, created by intentionally altering source code of the software application, are successfully “killed” by test cases executed against the mutants. Mutation testing can be performed via parallel threads by, within each parallel thread, modifying individual source code class files and recompiling the modified class files to generate and test mutants. Individual mutation test results produced within each of the parallel threads can be aggregated to generate an aggregated test result report that indicates overall testing metrics associated with the mutation testing across the parallel threads.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Inventors: Andrew L. Pearson, Nate Shepherd

Publication number: 20230333974Abstract: In mutation testing, source code is mutated at various positions, and test suites are run against the original object code and each version of the mutated object code, to determine the quality of test suites against arbitrary changes in the object code. The present disclosure provides a mutation test manager configured to initialize multiple computing threads configuring a computing host to perform parallel computation; mutate class files within context of each computing thread; recompile mutated class files independently in each respective computing thread to generate heterogeneous mutants; and execute pending unit tests against heterogeneous mutants independently in each respective computing thread. Consequently, the mutation testing process is decoupled from computational bottlenecks which would result from linear, sequential generation, compilation, and testing of each mutation, especially in the context of JVM® programming languages configured to generate class-rich object code.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 19, 2023Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventors: Andrew L.
