  • Patent number: 9886268
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for providing an informal interface and a formal interface to a computing application using a computer is provided. The informal interface includes first routines, the first routines using an informal input format. The method also includes providing a formal interface using the computer, where the formal interface includes second routines. The second routines support developer functionality, and the second routines using a formal input format. The method includes receiving a first input having a first routine input format, the first routine input format complying with the informal input format, or a second input having a second routine input format, the second routine input format complying with the formal input format. The method includes processing the received first input or the received second input and performing a computing operation based on the processing.

  • Patent number: 7908591
    Abstract: A memory profiler is provided in a programming environment. The memory profiler records memory usage information at a point of a program that runs in the programming environment. The memory profiler may record information on the amount of allocated memory, the amount of freed memory and the amount of peak memory usage. The memory profiler may also record the number of allocations and frees. The memory usage information is associated with individual points in the program so that a user can utilize this information to change the program to use less memory. With the memory usage information, the present invention enables a user to recognize how much memory is being allocated and used on behalf of a program and to track down what code is actually causing a problem in the program.

  • Patent number: 7725679
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system to implement a distributed array using the distributed property as an attribute attachable to an array. The present invention maintains the top level array implementation so as to avoid making the top level users to learn how to use a brand new class for creating and manipulating distributed arrays.
