Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for facilitating creation of a reusable application, during development of the reusable application, a plurality of artifacts associated with source code of the reusable application is received, wherein an artifact of the plurality of artifacts includes information related to the development of the reusable application. The plurality of artifacts is maintained as metadata for the source code of the reusable application. An application module including the source code of the reusable application and the metadata is generated, wherein the application module is configured for use by a developer for facilitating creation of a new version of the reusable application, and wherein the metadata is accessible by the developer during the creation of the new version of the reusable application for accessing the information related to the development of the reusable application.

Abstract: A development system with improved methodology for creation and reuse of software assets is shown and described. In one embodiment, for example, in a development system, a method is described for facilitating creation of a reusable application, the method comprises steps of: during development of the application, capturing knowledge and intent of the application's original developer alongside source code created for the application; producing an archival module storing the source code for the application together with metadata capturing the knowledge and intent of the original developer, the metadata including at least one script guiding subsequent developers in use and modification of the source code for the application; and consuming the archival module by a follow-on developer, including executing the at least one script for facilitating creation of a reusable version of the application.

Abstract: A method converts an input data rate associated with N units of data to an output data rate associated with M units of data. The method includes calculating N write-control parameters each associated with one of M addresses of an output memory, directing each of N values of input data to an associated address of the output memory in response to the N calculated write-control parameters, and reading the output memory to provide output data associated with the output data rate. If N is greater than M, some of the N write-control parameters are associated with at least one shared address of the M addresses. If M is greater than N, all of the N write-control parameters are associated with different addresses of the M addresses. An apparatus is configured to implement this method.
