  • Patent number: 9207923
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present invention disclose a method and system for replacing an unevaluated input that is constant at runtime to a group of instructions that calculates an output and can not modify the unevaluated input with invocation code that calls evaluation code. In a step, an exemplary embodiment identifies a group of instructions with an unevaluated input that is constant at runtime that calculates an output and can not modify the unevaluated input. In another step, an exemplary embodiment identifies an unevaluated input to the group of instructions that is constant at runtime. In another step, an exemplary embodiment generates an evaluation code that evaluates the unevaluated input. In another step, an exemplary embodiment replaces the unevaluated input with an invocation code that invokes the evaluation code.

  • Patent number: 8943003
    Abstract: A method for forming and using a composite production rule may include compiling, by a computer system, a decision table or a decision tree to generate a composite production rule. The method may also include generating the composite production rule and selecting, by the computer system, an algorithm for compiling the composite production rule. The method may additionally include compiling, by the computer system, the composite production rule into an executable program based on pattern matching of the selected algorithm. The method may further include executing, by the computer system, the composite production rule to provide an output based on the composite production rule.
