Abstract: An industrial integrated development environment (IDE) identifies modifications to an industrial control program using a combination of program hashing and text differencing. The system performs deep-level hashing of the control program's text model to obtain hash data comprising rung-level hash values that collectively represent the current state of the program. When edits to the program are received, the modified text model is hashed again to yield modified hash data, and differencing analysis is performed on the initial and modified hash data. Differences between the two sets of hash values are used to identify portions of the control program that have been modified so that the targeted updates to a logic view of the program can be implemented. This allows the logic view to be updated without redrawing the entire view, and without the need to store multiple copies of the program's object model for comparison purposes.

Instead of directly applying the received operations to the document content, the online document system consolidates operations into a tracked change object based on a common intent of the operations. To render the document content (with tracked change object) the online document system applies the set of operations to the document content and generates a tracked change indication to highlight content changed by the set of operations.

Abstract: Systems and methods of comparing structured documents are disclosed. From/to source documents are first represented by their respective from/to XML forms based on a predetermined schema. One or more from nodes are selected from the from XML document to compare to one or more to nodes from the to XML document. The comparison employs a set of matching functions that may be selected based on the domain of the source documents. The matching functions may compare just the tags of XML elements, and/or their text contents and/or any of their relevant attributes. The matching may be exact or approximate. Each matching function computes a score which may be weighted. For each pair of from/to nodes, an overall match-score is computed based on the scores of the individual matching functions. If the match-score reaches a matching-threshold, the pair is determined to be a match and further matching is stopped. The techniques are extended for comparing multiple from documents to a to document.
