Abstract: Applications are optimized using source code patterns and performance analysis. Patterns of inefficiently coded statements are stored, and source code that includes program statements are identified. The program statements are compared with the patterns to identify program statements that are inefficiently coded. An execution of a compiled version of the source code is monitored to identify program statements that cause performance issues The identified program statements that are inefficiently coded are compared with the identified program statements that cause performance issues to determine program statements that are inefficiently coded and cause performance issues.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, can perform optimizing applications using source code patterns and performance analysis. A computer implemented method includes storing patterns of inefficiently coded statements; identifying source code comprising program statements; comparing the program statements with the patterns to identify program statements that are inefficiently coded; monitoring an execution of a compiled version of the source code to identify program statements that cause performance issues; and comparing the identified program statements that are inefficiently coded with the identified program statements that cause performance issues to determine program statements that are inefficiently coded and cause performance issues.

Abstract: A method and system for modifying program applications of a legacy computer system to directly output data as XML using a DOM instance, models the legacy computer system, maps the model to an XML schema and automatically modifies one or more applications to directly output XML formatted data from an internally constructed DOM instance in cooperation with a writer engine. The writer engine allows for an arbitrary number of contexts to be simultaneously active and builds a complete DOM instance by using the multiple contexts to buffer output data. The writer engine directly loads XML schema information to construct and output DOM instances in accordance with the schema and subject to further transformation by XSLT stylesheets.

Abstract: A method and system for modifying program applications of a legacy computer system to directly output data in XML format models the legacy computer system, maps the model to an XML schema and automatically modifies one or more applications to directly output XML formatted data in cooperation with a writer engine and a context table. A modeling engine lists the incidents within the applications that write data and generates a report data model. The report data model includes statically determined value or type of the data fields and is written in a formal grammar that describes how the write operations are combined. A modification specification is created to define modifications to the legacy computer system applications that relate applications that write data to the XML schema.
