  • METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND MEDIA FOR BINARY COMPATIBILITY
    Publication number: 20160077850
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for binary compatibility comprises: receiving, from a foreign application, a function call to at least one surrogate function, wherein the at least one surrogate function is contained in a surrogate library, and wherein the surrogate library corresponds to a foreign library associated with the foreign function call; identifying a domestic function corresponding to the surrogate function; setting a pointer identifying a block of memory that is local to a thread associated with the surrogate function to point to a first portion of memory associated with the domestic function; invoking the identified domestic function; storing values including one or more error codes returned from the invoked domestic function; setting the pointer to point to a second portion of memory associated with the foreign function call; copying the one or more error codes to the second portion of memory; and continuing to execute the foreign application

  • Systems and methods for recording and replaying application execution
    Patent number: 8402318
    Abstract: A method for recording and replaying execution of an application running on a computer system using a program module is provided. The method includes recording events which result from the execution of the application including a non-deterministic event, wherein the program module deterministically records the non-deterministic event, saving the recorded events for deterministic replay of the recorded execution, restoring the saved recorded events, and deterministically replaying the recorded execution of the application.
