Abstract: This disclosure is directed to using cascading algorithms to automatically identify items placed in a tote or other receptacle utilized by users in material handling facilities as the users move around the facilities. A tote may store a database or “gallery” of item representations for all of the items that are stored in the facility that a user may place in their totes. The tote may use multiple algorithms in a cascading manner to analyze the gallery of item representations in order to iteratively narrow the search space of item representations in the gallery to determine which of the items was placed in the tote by a user. Upon identifying the item placed in the tote, the tote may add an item identifier for the item to a virtual listing of item identifiers representing items previously placed in the tote.

Abstract: A system and method for generating code that reduces the cost for large projects and that provides easier and quicker ways of finding errors and making modifications is disclosed. A method of generating code to be deployed in an application server comprises the steps of receiving an archive file to be deployed, introspecting an input class included in the archive file to generate information relating to the input class, generating a markup language description of the input class based on the generated information relating to the input class, creating an event handler for a method node found in the markup language description, registering the event handler, parsing the markup language description and invoking the registered event handler, and generating output code using the invoked event handler.

Abstract: An application tuning server-side component, and a method, system, and computer program product for application tuning, provides application deployers with a single, unified facility for modifying the relevant parameters. A method of tuning an application deployed in an application server comprises the steps of deploying the application in the application server, invoking an application tuning server-side component operable to retrieve information relating to application parameters to be tuned, receiving specifications of values of application tuning parameters, and tuning the application using the received specified parameter values. The application tuning server-side component may be implemented using Java Management Extensions.

Abstract: A technique is provided by which a JMX management console can be created that reduces the time and expense needed to create the console, and which reduces the likelihood of errors being introduced. A method for providing an interface comprises providing a software object including a representation of a graphical user interface, requesting from the software object the representation of the graphical user interface, and displaying the graphical user interface.

Abstract: An application tuning tool, and method, system, and computer program product for application tuning, provides application deployers with a single, unified facility for modifying the relevant parameters to achieve optimal performance, which makes the application tuning process simpler and easier, so that it can be performed by less skilled individuals and yet be performed more quickly by those less skilled individuals. A method of tuning an application deployed in an application server comprises the steps of deploying the application in the application server, invoking an application tuning tool operable to display information relating to application parameters to be tuned, receiving specifications of values of application tuning parameters, and tuning the application using the received specified parameter values.

Abstract: A server provides access to its logging output by using the Really Simple Syndication (RSS) protocol. A method of processing logging information comprises receiving logging information from an application, the logging information relating to an event of the application, processing at least a portion of the received logging information to form at least one information feed, and transmitting at least one of the formed information feeds.

Abstract: A method for providing a service in a controlled run-time environment. The method comprises registering a proxy service in the controlled run-time environment wherein the proxy service implements an interface defined according to the controlled run-time environment to enable services operating in the controlled run-time environment to interoperate with the service, receiving service information by the proxy service from a local service executing in the controlled run-time environment via an interface method of the proxy service, communicating the service information to a remote service from the proxy service, receiving processed information from the remote service in response to the communicating, and returning the processed information to the local service from the proxy service.
