Abstract: A method and system for data centric heap profiling is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method, implemented in a computing device, for data centric heap profiling includes generating a type table for data structure types in source code using a compiler of the computing device. The method also includes identifying each heap allocation site and a corresponding data structure type in the source code using the compiler. The method further includes generating a data centric view of a heap o fan application compiled from the source code based on the each heap allocation site and the corresponding data structure type using a debugger of the computing device when a snapshot of the heap is requested during an execution of the application.

Abstract: Techniques and tools are described for refining source-code query results. For example, source-code query results for a query can be generated, semantic clusters of the source-code query results can be generated, and based on a selection of a semantic cluster option, refined source-code query results can be sent. Also, for example, source-code query results can be received, selections of facet values associated with groups of the source-code query results can be sent, and based on selected facet values, a subset of the source-code query results can be received.

Abstract: An online integrated development environment (IDE) providing code assist is described. A method for providing code assist within the online IDE comprises receiving a request from a client device to access a software development project, storing code assist information related to the software development project, and sending code assist information to the client device. The client device stores the received code assist information and uses it for local code assist operations at the client device. The client device can receive a subset of a database of code assist information stored at a server environment providing the online IDE. The client device accesses the online IDE via a web browser.

Abstract: A method of debugging an executable computer application comprising instructions of a first computer architecture instruction set and instructions of a second computer architecture instruction set. The method comprises determining whether an instruction being debugged is from the second architecture instruction set; and obtaining debug information from an emulator of the second architecture in a first architecture environment when the instruction being executed is from the second architecture instruction set. The debug information results from emulation of the instruction being debugged.

Abstract: Datalink frames or networking packets contain protocol information in the header and optionally in the trailer of a frame or a packet. We are proposing a method in which part of or all of the protocol information corresponding to a frame or a packet is transmitted separately in another datalink frame. The “Separately Transmitted Protocol Information” is referred to as STPI. The STPI contains enough protocol information to identify the next hop node or port. STPI can be used avoid network congestion and improve link efficiency. Preferably, there will be one datalink frame or network packet corresponding to each STPI, containing the data and the rest of the protocol information and this frame/packet is referred to as DFoNP. The creation of STPI and DFoNP is done by the originator of the frame or packet such as an operating system.

Abstract: A technique for building a callgraph for a software program that includes multiple function entry points using dynamic instrumentation. In one example embodiment, this is achieved by inserting function count probe code at each function entry point of each multiple entry function having multiple function entry points in the software program. Inter-entry point arc probe code is then inserted substantially before each arc source address of an arc. A performance analysis tool is then used to collect data resulting from execution of the software program including the function count probe code and the inter-entry point arc probe code and to obtain an actual function count value for each multiple entry function. A callgraph is then built using the obtained actual function count values.

Abstract: Low communication latency, low cost and high scalability can be achieved by allowing PCI or PCI-X or PCI Express for connectivity between computers or embedded systems and network switches and for connectivity between network switches. These technologies can also be used for interconnecting storage area network switches, computers and mass-memory controllers. PCI Express root bridges in computers or embedded systems can be connected directly to network switch ports.

Abstract: Aqueous coating compositions are described where the binder includes an anionically stabilized polymeric dispersion. The monomers used to prepare the dispersion are acrylic acid and methacrylic acid as a carboxylic monomer and styrene, alpha methyl styrene or vinyl toluene as a hydrophobic high Tg aromatic monomer and an alkyl acrylate ester as a low Tg monomer. The relative weight proportions of the monomers are required to satisfy a formula. Blends of high and low Tg dispersions are also described. Paints formulated with the binders exhibit an excellent balance of stain resistance, tint strength and viscosity stability.
