Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for balancing a load on a queue among multiple consumers. A target polling hit rate is derived for at least one queue from a consumer load. The consumer load on the at least one queue is adjusted responsive to a change in an observed polling hit rate for the at least one queue.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for balancing a load on a queue among multiple consumers. A target polling hit rate is derived for at least one queue from a consumer load. The consumer load dictates a read rate of the at least one queue. The consumer load on the at least one queue is adjusted responsive to a difference between the target polling hit rate and an observed polling hit rate for the at least one queue.

Abstract: A system for self-assembling software components is described herein. In one embodiment, a system includes a first and second set of language components, where each language component defines at least one part of language runnable on a computer by associating a piece of grammar of the language with at least one software component that implements the piece of grammar. The system further includes a request broker that upon being provided with a section of code written in the language matches syntactic appearances of the first set of language components in the section of code and granting logic to grant access to the language components of the first set whose syntactic appearances the request broker matched, in order to enable self-assemblage of the language components of the first set with language components of the second set.

Abstract: A method and system for creating reusable software components in the form of linkable programming languages. Linkable programming languages enable programmers to model the natural syntaxes of different domains and extend these languages in a distributed manner. In this way, the present invention brings many of the properties of natural language to the engineering of software.

Abstract: A method and system for creating reusable software components that can be automatically discovered and assembled on a network through the use of syntactic appearances in component languages. Component languages guarantee that any search for the syntactic features of a component, coupled with inheritance information, will locate the component with the correct semantic properties. In this way, the invention allows components to be automatically discovered without human intervention and increases the reusability of software as a whole.

Abstract: A new fundamental unit of programming which couples semantic and syntactic relationships, and a system for compiling those units and programs written in those units. A Sym is comprised of a Name, an Inherit Statement, a Self Description, and a Definition. Syms couple syntactic and semantic relationships through their use of Syntactic References in their Self Description and Semantic References in their Definition. Syms and programs written in Syms are compiled through the Sym Execution System.
