Patent number: 9798536Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for receiving, from a first and second application by a computing device, shapes of artifacts and components of the first and second application. The shapes of the artifacts and components of the first and second application are conformed to a standard format. One or more changes to the shapes of the artifacts and components of the first and second application are tracked. One or more suspicious relationships across the first and second application are displayed based upon, at least in part, the one or more changes to the shapes of the artifacts and components of the first and second application.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2013Date of Patent: October 24, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Marc A. Baumbach, Patrick J. Danford, George P. DeCandio, Christian Funkhouser, David K. Grotjohn, Vishwanath Ramaswamy

Patent number: 9733931Abstract: A user input initiating delivery of a first change set to a stream maintained by an artifact management application can be detected. A first set of elements and a first set of elements types associated with the first change set can be identified. A second set of element types that pertain to at least one unit of work identified for the first set of elements can be identified. A second set of elements that are involved in the same unit of work can be identified. A second change set modifying the second set of elements can be identified. A third change set modifying at least one element type can be identified. A change set group can be created and the first change set, the second change set and the third change set can be added to the change set group. The change set group can be delivered to the stream.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2016Date of Patent: August 15, 2017Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Muhtar B. Akbulut, Geoffrey M. Clemm, George P. DeCandio, Brian P. Steele

Patent number: 9569336Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for generating, at a computing device, a first suspect profile of a plurality of suspect profiles that includes one or more characteristics, wherein the first suspect profile is associated with a traceability link between at least two artifacts. A change to a first characteristic associated with a first artifact of the at least two artifacts is determined. Which of the plurality of suspect profiles includes the first characteristic is determined. The first characteristic is matched to the first suspect profile of the plurality of suspect profiles based upon, at least in part, determining that the first suspect profile includes the first characteristic. The traceability link is marked as suspect based upon, at least in part, matching the first characteristic to the first suspect profile.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2013Date of Patent: February 14, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Marc A.
