  • Publication number: 20210357192
    Abstract: Language interoperability between source code programs not compatible with an interprocedural static code analyzer is achieved through language-independent representations of the programs. The source code programs are transformed into respective intermediate language instructions from which a language-independent control flow graph and a language-independent type environment is created. A program compatible with the interprocedural static code analyzer is generated from the language-independent control flow graph and the language-independent type environment in order to utilize the interprocedural static code analyzer to detect memory safety faults.

  • Patent number: 11150087
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for measuring an angle and a distance. The method includes: at an initial position, after a laser emitting device aligns with a laser receiving device, recording a first angle and measuring a first distance between the laser emitting device and the laser receiving device; and moving the laser receiving device from the initial position to a first position, and after the laser emitting device realigns with the laser receiving device, recording a second angle and measuring a second distance between the laser emitting device and the laser receiving device. The method for measuring the angle and the distance creatively records the corresponding angle and distance at different positions, respectively, such that the position of the laser receiving device relative to the laser emitting device is accurately determined.
