  • Syntax for members added through object protocol systems and methods
    Patent number: 7574701
    Abstract: A special syntax is developed to differentiate between accesses to a primary and one or more secondary object protocols in a programming language. The syntax allows the compiler to differentiate between the primary and secondary object model based on syntax, rather than type. The syntax is created in such a way as to approximate the syntax of the secondary object model, and allows the user to dynamically generate member names.

  • DECLARATIVE EXECUTION CONTEXT SPLITTING
    Publication number: 20090199159
    Abstract: Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for enabling code to be executed on one or more execution contexts based upon declarative annotations contained in the code or other locations. An annotation associated with a region of code is located. The annotation specifies information about an execution context where the region of code should be executed. A caller proxy is generated that is responsible for calling a callee adapter to execute the region of code. The callee adapter is generated that is responsible for receiving a call from the caller proxy and for dispatching a call to the region of code at the execution context. At runtime, the caller proxy receives a request to call the region of code and sends an execution request to the callee adapter. The callee adapter receives the execution request and dispatches a call to an executable version of the region of code.

  • STATIC QUERY OPTIMIZATION FOR LINQ
    Publication number: 20090144229
    Abstract: Systems and methods that optimize query translations at compile time in LINQ languages. An optimization component optimizes algebraic trees and rewrites an expression composed from sequence operators into a more efficient expression(s). A compiler associated with the optimization component can receive syntax (e.g., query comprehensions, query expressions) to turn into standard sequence operators that can operate on arbitrary collections. The compiler can then perform transformations on the algebraic trees, such as push filter conditions upwards or downwards and/or to combine filter conditions.

  • PRE-FETCHING IN DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENTS
    Publication number: 20090112975
    Abstract: Client-side performance is optimized through server-side pushing of content. Portions of content are requested and retrieved as required by a client-side application. Moreover, content likely to be needed in the near future is pre-fetched and pushed to the client. This is beneficial from an overhead standpoint since all content need not be provided to the client at once. Rather, content provisioning is throttled based on need, and wait time is mitigated by pre-fetching.

  • SERVICE TESTING
    Publication number: 20090113250
    Abstract: Communication symmetry is leveraged to facilitate testing of network services. To identify, isolate, understand, and resolve problems a test client is employed. In accordance with one aspect, a service can be provided for execution on a service consumer while the test client resides on a service provider. Roles are reversed to provide more testing freedom on the provider side and less intrusion on the consumer side.

  • CUSTOMIZATION OF RELATIONSHIP TRAVERSAL
    Publication number: 20090077120
    Abstract: An object-relational mapping mechanism facilitates customized relationship traversal. The mechanism can override default loading behavior with custom functionality (e.g., eager loading, lazy loading . . . ) specified by a programmer, for example. In other words, the object-relational mapping mechanism includes an extensibility point or hook for customization.

  • FILE FORMATS FOR EXTERNAL SPECIFICATION OF OBJECT-RELATIONAL MAPPING
    Publication number: 20090063555
    Abstract: A unique formatting scheme for object-relational mapping allows disparate applications that adopt the scheme to seamlessly access data in disparate relational databases. The formatting scheme contemplates a common format that conveys the mapping information through (i) attributes embedded with code objects, and (ii) an external mapping source. Adoption of the common format can result in several advantages for network-based client-server operations: (i) Software developers can continue programming in their existing languages. (ii) Data servers from various vendors can also continue to be developed and managed in the vendors' core programming languages. (iii) Vendors that employ client applications which have adopted the common format can consistently use various data warehouses without incurring customization costs.

  • AUTOMATIC AND TRANSPARENT MEMOIZATION
    Publication number: 20090049421
    Abstract: Functions are memoized automatically and transparently. Memoized code can be injected automatically within a program to facilitate efficient and/or expeditious execution thereof, among other things. The memoized code can intercept calls to an original function and return values in accordance with the code. Accordingly, callers of the function need not do anything special and can invoke the function without knowledge of it being memoized.

  • SEPARABLE INTEGRATION VIA HIGHER-ORDER PROGRAMMING
    Publication number: 20090030659
    Abstract: Separable integration is provided for simulation contexts where modeling and integration can be considered separately when programmatically implementing the simulations, for example. Thus, modeling concepts can be defined relating to the simulation, and integration of the modeling concept can happen separately to provide more variety to meet modeling specifications. In one embodiment, a state-space form equation can be computed for a modeling concept equation (an equation of motion, for example) and an integration scheme can be applied to the state-space form equation regardless of the modeling equation from which it was computed. In this regard, integration can be focused on to provide a plurality of schemes for different contexts, for example.

  • COMPOSITE NESTED STREAMS
    Publication number: 20090030926
    Abstract: Reshaping of streams is provided to facilitate utilizing the streams without rapidly increasing memory requirements as the size of the stream increases. The streams can be pushed to alternative storage upon being reshaped, for example, such as to a persistent storage. If the streams lose structure, for example if a hierarchical stream is reshaped into a flat structure for storage in a database, structural information can be stored along with the streams and utilized to shape the stream to its original structure upon request for data, for example. Streams can be pulled from an exposing device or application, and portions of the stream can be transformed and stored according to a set of stop elements; the stop elements can be associated with functions that take action on the stream upon reaching a stop element, such as transforming and storing a portion thereof.

  • SCHEMATIZED DATA INTELLIGENT ASSISTANCE FOR DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENTS
    Publication number: 20090030902
    Abstract: Intelligent assistance functionality is provided in development environments and/or other editors for schematized data. Input of a trigger character sequence can initiate an intelligent assistance box having data corresponding to a related schema. Thus, the intelligent assistance data can be dynamic as schematized data can change; the data can be queried from the schema as requested to facilitate this end. In one embodiment, the data can be an extensible markup language (XML) schema having a plurality of elements. In this regard, syntax can be entered into a development environment to effectuate an intelligent assistance box comprising the elements of the schema; a root level element can be displayed for an initial trigger character sequence. After selecting the element, another trigger sequence can be input to facilitate querying the schema for next level elements, and so on.
