Abstract: A method for heap space management includes, in response to a determination that consumption of a first heap space of an application exceeds a first threshold, determining whether a second heap space of the application after garbage collection is sufficient to accommodate data stored in the first heap space. The method further includes, in response to a determination that the second heap space after the garbage collection is sufficient to accommodate the data, performing the garbage collection on the second heap space. The method further includes storing the data into the second heap space.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to password authentication. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a password associated with a user identification is received from a user device. The password is authenticated based on a preset relationship between a seed password and a graphical password associated with the user identification. The seed password consists of a string of characters. The graphical password is a directed path traversing all keys of a keypad in an order. Each of the keys represents one of the characters and is associated with an order number according to the order of the keys being traversed. The preset relationship is that the password consists of respective order numbers associated with respective keys representing corresponding characters of the seed password.

Abstract: Aspects of the invention include computer-implemented method that includes generating a preliminary control flow graph from memory dump data and compiler listing data in response to an exception event at a computing program. Code segments associated with each block of the preliminary control flow graph are translated to Boolean statements. Each Boolean statement is determined to be either satisfied or unsatisfied based on input values retrieved from the memory dump data. An edge property value of a first edge and a second edge of a plurality of edges of the preliminary control flow graph based are calculated based on a satisfaction of the Boolean statements. The edge property value of the first edge is compared to the edge property value of the second edge. The preliminary control flow graph is refined by deleting the first edge of the plurality of edges based at least in part on the comparison.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to searching for and committing low-frequency data to a database. An example method generally includes receiving, from a requesting application, a query for data from the data repository. A database system retrieves a set of indices associated with the data specified in the query from an index table in the data repository. Upon determining that the set of indices comprises a non-null set, the database system retrieves records associated with each index in the set of indices from a data table associated with the index table and returns the retrieved records to the requesting application.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for determining influence of applications on system performance includes collecting, by a processor, for several applications that are executing on a computing system, respective instrumentation data during multiple time-segments. The method further includes determining, for each of the applications, a performance value and a robustness value for each of the time-segments based on the respective instrumentation data. Further, using the performance value and robustness value for each time-segment, multiple health-waveforms are generated, where a health-waveform is generated for each respective application. The method further includes determining, by the processor, an influence-factor of a first application on a second application, the first application and the second application are executing on the computing system.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, system, and computer program product for comparison of database data. According to the method, a first tree structure corresponding to first data segments of first database data and a second tree structure corresponding to second data segments of second database data are at least partially obtained. Each node of the first or second tree structure indicating a characteristic value of at least one of the first or second data segments, and nodes of the first or second tree structure are divided into a first or second plurality of branches from a first or second root node based on update frequencies of the first or second data segments. A difference between the first data segments and the second data segments is determined by at least comparing characteristic values indicated by nodes in the obtained parts of the first and second tree structures.

Abstract: Aspects of the invention include a computer-implemented method that includes converting runtime data points that are indicative of an influence of the runtime data points on a robustness and performance of a computing system. The runtime data points are clustered, wherein each cluster respectively represents a temporal state of the computing system. Each cluster is translated into a three-dimensional representation based on a probability density of the runtime data points of each cluster. A time-based vector is generated, where the vector describes a transition from a first three-dimensional representation to a second three-dimensional representation. Each three-dimensional representation traversed by the time-based vector represents a respective state of the computing system. The time-based vector is compared with a baseline vector. An anomaly alert is issued based at least in part on the comparison.

An execution point is selected in the updated script. The current state of the first script is loaded into the updated script. The updated script is run from the execution point, with the current state of the first script.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an inter-layer transition forming machine for winding of a large-sized superconducting coil. A vertically movable forming mechanism and a horizontally movable forming mechanism are mounted on a fixing plate. When the winding of a large-sized superconducting coil performs inter-layer transition, an armored superconducting conductor is clamped by wedge clamping mechanisms with right- and left-handed threads on the vertically movable forming mechanism and the horizontally movable forming mechanism, and a reference line on the conductor is ensured to be aligned with a reference line on a forming mold. The vertically movable forming mechanism is pressed down, under the drive of a double-acting hydraulic cylinder, in a vertical direction to form inter-layer transition, and the horizontally movable forming mechanism moves in a horizontal direction according to the reduction of the vertically movable forming mechanism.
