  • Patent number: 11132280
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to identifying and presenting differences between a plurality of recorded executions of an executable entity. One or more models are created over the plurality of recorded prior executions of at least a portion of an executable entity. These models include at least one of (i) a control flow model, or (ii) a data model. An anomalous model data point is identified within these models, and a first location in at least one of the plurality of recorded executions that corresponds to the anomalous model data point is identified. A second location in the at least one of the plurality of recorded executions is also identified. This second location is causal to the anomalous model data point at the first location. The identity of the first and/or second locations in the least one of the plurality of recorded executions is presented.

  • Patent number: 10268567
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for using managed runtime environment semantics to optimize record and replay frameworks. One method includes: executing, by the computing system, a managed runtime component; interacting, by the computing system, with another system during the execution of the managed runtime component; determining, by the computing system, whether a non-deterministic event is to be logged in event logs during the execution of the managed runtime component; determining, by the computing system when the non-deterministic event is to be logged, whether semantics of the non-deterministic event to be logged includes a predetermined semantic, wherein the predetermined semantic includes one or more of optimistic zero copy actions; and logging, by the computing system when the semantics of the non-deterministic event includes the predetermined semantic, a copy of contents of the non-deterministic event in event logs during the execution of the managed runtime component.

  • Patent number: 10042740
    Abstract: Techniques to identify idiomatic code in a code base are described. Embodiments of such techniques are configured with idiom information corresponding to idiomatic code representations of computer code of which each idiomatic code representation comprises information corresponding to a control structure and variable usage. These techniques are operative to compare the idiomatic code representations to computer code fragments in the code base and identify one or more code fragments matching at least one of the idiomatic code representations. These techniques may identify functional operators for replacing the code fragments in the code base. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 9891895
    Abstract: Systems and methods for increasing user confidence in results that are produced by one or more programs that are generated by an underlying Programming-By-Example (PBE) system based on user input examples. A plurality of generated programs that have been generated using one or more user input examples that are indicative of an output that should be achieved to comply with a user determined result are received. The generated programs are narrowed based on one or more sub-expressions of the programs that are likely to cause the resultant program to comply with the user determined result. The one or more sub-expressions are exposed. Input that selects at least one of the one or more exposed sub-expressions to thereby identify the one of the generated programs that will result in the user determined result is received.

  • Patent number: 9875173
    Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to time travel debugging in a managed runtime system. The managed runtime system can include an execution component that executes a managed program component. Moreover, the managed runtime system can include a time travel debugger component. The time travel debugger component can be configured to record a sequence of live-object snapshots of program states during execution of the managed program component. A live-object snapshot can include live objects from a heap in memory at a given time during the execution. Moreover, the time travel debugger component can be configured to replay at least a portion of the execution of the managed program component based upon the live-object snapshots.

  • Patent number: 9588870
    Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to performing time travel debugging. A computer-executable program can be executed. The computer-executable program can be executable under control of a virtual machine. The virtual machine can interact with a browser system during execution of the computer-executable program. Moreover, nondeterministic events can be logged via an interrogative virtual machine interface (VMI) during the execution of the computer-executable program. The nondeterministic events can be logged as part of event logs. Moreover, the interrogative VMI is between the virtual machine and the browser system. Further, snapshots of the virtual machine can be captured during the execution of the computer-executable program. The snapshots can be captured via the interrogative VMI. At least a portion of the execution of the computer-executable program can be replayed based at least in part on a snapshot and at least a portion of the event logs.

  • Patent number: 9330090
    Abstract: A system and method to translate natural language descriptions to programs in a domain-specific language for spreadsheets. The method includes generating a model of a spreadsheet. The model includes a column description for each column, and one or more types associated with each column. The method also includes normalizing the description by removing stop words, and replacing parts that match column names or data values by parameterized place-holders. The method involves applying rule-based translation along with keyword or type-based program synthesis in an inter-leaved, bottom-up manner and dynamic programming style, where phrases are mapped to sub-programs in increasing order of their length. The rules describe how to map a specific partial natural language phrase into a partial sub-program. Also, the method includes generating a number of potential programs and ranking the programs to sequence them according to their intended likelihood.

A data manipulation system includes an interface component configured to receive an input document, which is semi-structured or unstructured. The data manipulation system further includes an extraction component configured to synthesize, based on a first input, a first program for parsing data of the input document. The extraction component is configured to execute the first program on the input document to form structured data. The data manipulation system also includes an operation component configured to synthesize, based on a second input, a second program for performing an operation on the structured data. The operation component is configured to execute the second program on the structured data to generate a result of the operation, which is output by the data manipulation system.
