Abstract: A method includes analyzing, on a first computing device, data from second computing device(s) of user interaction with a user interface of an application previously executed on the second computing device(s). The data corresponds to events caused by the user interaction with the user interface of the application. The first computing device generates representation(s) of the analyzed data and outputs the representation(s) of the user interaction. Another method includes capturing and logging, by a computing device, events caused by user interaction with a user interface of an application when the application is executed on the computing device. In response to a trigger, data comprising the captured and logged events is sent toward another computing device. Another method includes instrumenting a measurement library into an application to create an instrumented version of the application, and sending the instrumented application to computing device(s).

Abstract: Managing user applications is provided. Images are captured of displayed user interface display screens of a running user application on the data processing system. An embedded instrumentation library in the running user application is used to capture the images of the displayed user interface display screens. Screen position coordinates corresponding to components within the displayed user interface display screens of the running user application are calculated. A display screen data package is generated that includes the captured images of the displayed user interface display screens of the running user application and the calculated screen position coordinates corresponding to the components within the displayed user interface display screens.

Abstract: Managing user applications is provided. A display screen data package that includes images of user interface display screens of a user application located on a client device and screen position coordinates corresponding to components displayed within the user interface display screens is received from the client device via a network. The display screen data package is parsed to identify each component within each of the user interface display screens. A visual model of user interface display screens of a user application is generated. A runtime policy for each component in a selected set of components within the user interface display screens of the user application is generated based on user interaction with the generated visual model of the user interface display screens. The generated runtime policy for each component in the selected set of components is sent to the client device via the network.

Abstract: Managing user applications is provided. A visual model of user interface display screens of a user application is generated by mapping components displayed within the user interface display screens to screen position coordinates and by mapping the screen position coordinates corresponding to the components to original source code of the user application. A runtime policy for each component in a selected set of components within the user interface display screens of the user application is generated based on user interaction with the generated visual model of the user interface display screens. The generated runtime policy for each component in the selected set of components is sent to a client device via a network. Activity of each component in the selected set of components in the client device is tracked using data that is tracked and logged on the client device based the generated runtime policy for each selected component.

Abstract: A method includes receiving, by a library instrumented into an application executable by a computing device, a message indicating modification(s) that should be performed to user interface component(s) able to be rendered by the application on a display of the computing device. The user interface component(s) are modified to create modified user interface component(s). The modified user interface component(s) are caused to be rendered on the display. Another method includes accessing a description of user interface component(s) for an application executable on a computing device, wherein the user interface component(s) are able to be rendered by the application on a display of the computing device. A developer is allowed to modify information concerning the user interface component(s). Message(s) are formed to allow modification(s) and corresponding user interface component(s) to be determined and the message(s) are sent to computing device(s) having the application.

Abstract: A method comprises receiving data pertaining to a recorded interaction between a test device operating system and an application on a test device, the recorded interaction being based on a user input; compiling the data pertaining to the recorded interaction in a script compiler, the data comprising human-readable action-description language; sending the compiled data comprising human-readable action-description language from the script compiler of the server to a developer device; receiving modified data from the developer device; and sending the modified data from the developer device to the test device.

Abstract: A method to share a computation task amongst a plurality of devices including at least one mobile device. The method includes estimating a cost to perform a computation task on a data set. If the estimated cost is greater than a threshold cost, the method further includes forming an ad-hoc wireless network comprised of a plurality of devices; downloading a portion of the data set to individual ones of the devices; performing a computation task by each device on the downloaded portion of the data set; and wirelessly transferring a result of the computation task from each device to all other devices of the network. The method can be performed by execution of an application program stored in mobile devices configured for local area wireless connectivity with neighboring mobile devices and for wireless connectivity to a remote server from which the portion of the data set is downloaded.

Abstract: A mobile device includes a computer-readable medium storing computer program instructions, a data processor to execute the instructions, and communication circuitry configured for local area wireless connectivity with neighboring mobile devices and for wireless connectivity to a remote server from which at least a portion of a data set is downloaded. Execution of the computer program instructions results in estimating a cost to perform a computation task on the data set. If the estimated cost is greater than a threshold cost, an ad-hoc wireless network is formed with at least one other mobile device and the mobile device downloads a portion of the data set assigned to the mobile device. The mobile device then performs a computation task on the downloaded portion of the data set and wirelessly transfers a result of the computation task to the at least one other mobile device of the ad-hoc wireless network.

Abstract: Intelligent notification generation. Communications from various sources are received and stored in memory as individual event entries. Each event entry is dynamically assessed for generation of a notification based on criteria. This criteria is dynamic and employed by feedback generated by user input and acknowledgements from delivered notifications. Generated notifications are translated into an audio format for delivery. The delivered notification, including the status of the delivered notification and attributes of the delivered notification, are stored in memory for purposes of establishing and aligning the criteria.
