Also accessed are metadata describing the groups and the elements of each group, with each element having a corresponding type. One or more control renderers are also accessed, with each control renderer including programming code to render those of the elements of a corresponding type based on the metadata. Also accessed are one or more context renderers, with each context renderer including programming code to arrange the rendered elements in a layout for the user interface based on relationships between groups.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method monitors input by a user using an application and detects a first input for a date in the application. A list of candidates is generated for the first input, the list of candidates listing the date in different formats that are possible based on the date. The method uses a space function to retrieve context for the first input, the context selected from information proximate to the first input within a threshold. Also, the method uses a time function to retrieve a history of selections, the history of selections being selected from one or more prior lists of candidates from prior inputs. The list of candidates is ranked based on a ranking function that uses the context and the history of selections to rank the list of candidates. A portion of the ranked list is output on the application for selection by the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for improving log file completeness are described. A high completeness value equal to or greater than a target completeness value is accomplished by re-shipping or replaying a subset of the missing log records from their respective hosts. Hosts (and respective log files) are ranked in order of completeness impact, allowing a determination of which minimum combination of hosts should be selected for replay to achieve the target completeness value. Intermediate log record counts are used to determine gaps in the log file. For example, record the number of log file records in five minute intervals to determine which sections of the log files need to be replayed, thereby avoiding the replay of entire log files, which may be prohibitively large.
