Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented process for scalable group synthesis receives a group definition, applies a sub-set of conditions to the group definition to form a conditioned group definition, receives a set of entities and populates group membership using the received set of entities and the conditioned group definition, wherein each member responds in the affirmative to the sub-set of conditions.

Abstract: An attribute presenter of object attributes from at least one object includes an attribute controller for determining which attributes to select; an attribute collector for collecting and normalizing the determined attributes from the at least one object; an attribute organizer for organizing the collected and normalized attributes for display; and an attribute viewer for displaying the organized object attributes. A method for presenting object attributes using an attribute presenter includes the steps of determining which object attributes to select using an attribute controller; collecting and normalizing the determined object attributes from at least one object using an attribute collector; organizing the collected and normalized object attributes for display by an attribute organizer; and displaying the organized object attributes by an attribute viewer.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for transferring debug sessions in a team environment. Exemplary embodiments include a method for transferring a debug session, the method including receiving a message that a first machine is to transfer the debug session, establishing a connection with a target machine to receive the debug session, receiving a message from the target machine that the debug session is accepted, terminating a connection with the first machine and sending debug session connection information to the target machine.

Abstract: In software development, risks can be quantified and defined by certain attributes. For instance, a risky area will have a large number of defects/changes for that area, a large number of high severity defects for that area, or a large number of coders/authors for that same area. All these metrics are already captured in Unified Change Management tools, version control tools and bug tracking tools. By taking the appropriate data and associating them with certain triggers and thresholds, an embodiment of the invention automatically identifies which test cases to run for regression. Through historical and previous test data and test runs, an embodiment of the invention forecasts how long it will take to run these regression suites.
