  • Publication number: 20230394438
    Abstract: Systems, methods and/or computer program products for automating evaluations of code deliveries for software projects. Automated evaluations are generated by selecting software projects and dividing a project into a plurality of code blocks by analyzing the code, build file and build log. Attributes of code blocks are extracted and correlations between code blocks are calculated. Dynamic distance between code blocks is calculated by the correlation and code delivery history, to create a Dynamic General Distance Map and Dynamic User Distance Map for the code blocks. Code delivery distance indicating the code delivery behavior is generated by the Dynamic User Distance Map while the delivery assessment criteria is generated to evaluate code delivery and assess levels of risk associated with delivery of the code. High-level risk indicates that a code delivery may not follow best practices and users are alerted to pay more attention to the code delivery during review.

  • Patent number: 10453992
    Abstract: An AlGaInP light-emitting diode includes from bottom up a substrate, a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) reflecting layer, an N-type semiconductor layer, a quantum well light-emitting layer, a P-type semiconductor layer, a transient layer and a P-type current spreading layer. The DBR reflecting layer is multispectral-doping. The P-type semiconductor layer includes a first P-type semiconductor layer adjacent to the quantum well light-emitting layer and a second P-type semiconductor layer adjacent to the transient layer. A doping concentration of the second P-type semiconductor layer is lower than that of the first P-type semiconductor layer. By improving doping concentration of the multispectral DBR reflecting layer, current spreading can be improved, thus improving aging performance. A concentration difference is formed with the transient layer to balance doping of the transient layer; this avoids increasing non-radiation composition from high doping of the transient layer during long-time aging.
