Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus and computer-readable media are disclosed for translating human-readable software elements into a machine executable format. According to a first aspect, a method is disclosed for translating human-readable software elements into a machine executable format. The method includes defining a plurality of actions to be performed. Each action is associated with at least one human-readable software element, and each action having an associated element type selected from among a plurality of element types. The method also includes sequencing the plurality of actions according to the plurality of associated element types. The method further includes executing a plurality of asynchronous action processing tasks, and assigning an action to each of the asynchronous action processing tasks in accordance with the sequencing until each of the actions is performed.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus and computer-readable media are disclosed for providing cross-platform software dependency information. A first example method is disclosed for providing metadata information for display in a graphical format. The method includes the step of receiving from a web browser a request for information relating to a platform-specific application. The method also includes transmitting to the platform-specific application, a request for metadata representing the requested information, and receiving metadata from the platform-specific application. The method further includes combining the metadata with viewing instructions for creating a graphical representation of the metadata, and transmitting the combined metadata and viewing instructions to the user for presentation. Other methods, apparatus, systems and computer readable media are disclosed for presenting metadata in a graphical format.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus and computer-readable media are disclosed for generating extract files. A first example method is disclosed for generating an extract file. The method includes receiving a data request and analyzing the data request to identify at least one record of at least one file containing data associated with the data request. The method also includes extracting the identified records and formatting the identified records according to a comma separated value format. The method further includes outputting an extract file containing the formatted records. Other methods, apparatus, systems and computer readable media are disclosed for generating extract files.
