Abstract: An apparatus adapted to process VDP print job for digital printing includes a plurality of processing elements wherein each of the processing elements is adapted to receive a chunk of the VDP print job for processing. A coordination element is adapted to coordinate between the processing elements to first process all reusable elements in the VDP print job during a first stage before starting processing of specific content in the assigned chunk during a second stage. A cache storage element is adapted to store the processed reusable elements during the first stage.

Abstract: In embodiments, the number of references to an object which is deployed into an application server framework may be determined by examining metadata extracted from configuration data sources within a multi-tier application framework. In embodiments, an object relevance value based on the extracted number of references to an object may be associated with the object. In embodiments, the number of references extracted from a data source may be weighted using a weight factor that is associated with the data source. In embodiments, the number of references to a source object may be extracted by traversing a source inheritance hierarchy and parsing the objects within the hierarchy. In embodiments, an object relevance display of a set of objects may be generated based in part on object relevance values of the set of objects. In embodiments, an object relevance display may be a molecular display, a flash tag cloud, and/or a source tree hierarchy.
