A system is disclosed that includes components and features for enabling enterprise users to securely access enterprise resources (documents, data, application servers, etc.) using their mobile devices. An enterprise can use some or all components of the system to, for example, securely but flexibly implement a BYOD (bring your own device) policy in which users can run both personal applications and secure enterprise applications on their mobile devices. The system may, for example, implement policies for controlling mobile device accesses to enterprise resources based on device attributes (e.g., what mobile applications are installed), user attributes (e.g., the user's position or department), behavioral attributes, and other criteria. Client-side code installed on the mobile devices may further enhance security by, for example, creating a secure container for locally storing enterprise data, creating a secure execution environment for running enterprise applications, and / or creating secure application tunnels for communicating with the enterprise system.

A system and method is disclosed for integrating and accessing multiple data sources within a data warehouse architecture. The metadata formed by the present method provide a way to declaratively present domain specific knowledge, obtained by analyzing data sources, in a consistent and useable way. Four types of information are represented by the metadata: abstract concepts, databases, transformations and mappings. A mediator generator automatically generates data management computer code based on the metadata. The resulting code defines a translation library and a mediator class. The translation library provides a data representation for domain specific knowledge represented in a data warehouse, including “get” and “set” methods for attributes that call transformation methods and derive a value of an attribute if it is missing. The mediator class defines methods that take “distinguished” high-level objects as input and traverse their data structures and enter information into the data warehouse.

A system may receive a request to derive an output variable from a source variable. The request may include proposed logic to derive the output variable from the source variable.

This invention relates generally to a system for processing database queries, and more particularly to a method for generating high level language or machine code to implement query execution plans. The present invention provides a method for generating executable machine code for query execution plans, that is adaptive to dynamic runtime conditions, that is compiled just in time for execution and most importantly, that avoids the bounds checking, pointer indirection, materialization and other similar kinds of overhead that are typical in interpretive runtime execution engines.

A method and apparatus for producer graph oriented programming and execution. According to one aspect of the invention, a runtime is provided that interprets producer dependency declarations for methods. The producer dependency declarations identify at run time a set of zero or more producers, where a producer is a runtime instantiatable construct that includes at least an instance and a method associated with that instance. The runtime automatically generates and executes, responsive to receiving a designation of a producer of interest whose method has a producer dependency declaration, a producer graph. The producer graph initially includes the producer of interest and is generated, from the producer of interest to source producers, through instantiation of producers based on the producer dependency declarations of the methods of the producers already in the producer graph. The runtime sequences the execution of the producers in the producer graph as indicated by the producer graph.

Techniques are disclosed for programmatically generating class libraries to represent the messages which may be sent / received according to specifications provided in a structured language message definition schema (or its equivalent, alternatively, such as a Document Type Definition or "DTD"). The disclosed techniques are very flexible, and are not limited to a single output programming language. Instead, a template-driven approach can be used to guide the generation process, where templates for multiple programming languages may be used to generate different versions of a class library, one for each programming language. The generation process can also be directed by rules specified in a rules file. The disclosed techniques can be used to generate class libraries for web services which have a service interface defined using only a schema reference. Migration can be evaluated programmatically, enabling much easier resolution of migration issues than is possible using prior art manual migration techniques.

A workflow code generator for generating executable code for multi-channel and / or multi-modal applications. The code generator may include a parser for reading application input files and creating internal representations of declarative statements within the input files. The code generator may further include a model analyzer, which processes the internal model to detect errors, perform optimization, and prepare for outputting the result. The code generator uses a symbol or mapping table for storing references to resources that have been used by the input application. The code generator assigns code fragments to object patterns, resolves data object references by referring to mapping table, and traverses the objects and emits code assigned to the objects.

A JIT binary translator translates code at a function level of the source code rather than at an opcode level. The JIT binary translator of the invention grabs an entire x86 function out of the source stream, rather than an instruction, translates the whole function into an equivalent function of the target processor, and executes that function all at once before returning to the source stream, thereby reducing context switching. Also, since the JIT binary translator sees the entire source code function context at once the software emulator may optimize the code translation. For example, the JIT binary translator might decide to translate a sequence of x86 instructions into an efficient PPC equivalent sequence. Many such optimizations result in a tighter emulated binary.

Paralleling processing system and method. When clusters are formed based on strongly connected components, a single cluster (fat cluster) having at least a predetermined number of blocks, or an expected processing time exceeding a predetermined threshold, is formed. The fat cluster is subjected to an unrolling process to make multiple copies of the processing of the fat cluster and to assign the copies to individual processors. Processing of the fat cluster is executed by the multiple processor devices in a pipelined manner. If a fat cluster to be iteratively executed cannot be executed in the pipelined manner because a processing result of an nth iteration of the fat cluster depends on a processing result of a preceding iteration of the fat cluster an input value needed for execution of the fat cluster is generated based on a certain prediction, and the fat cluster is speculatively executed.

This invention relates generally to a system for processing database queries, and more particularly to a method for generating high level language or machine code to implement query execution plans. In one preferred embodiment, the method begins by receiving a subject query, and then forming an execution plan corresponding to the subject query. The execution plan will typically have a sequence of component snippets or pieces and corresponding processes for implementing the pieces. For at least one piece in the plan, the process then (a) generates source code using different code generation techniques as a function of expected runtime processing machine types; and then (b) compiles the generated source code to form machine executable code for implementing the subject query. As a result, the query executed directly as machine executable code thereby avoiding runtime interpretation of the pieces in the execution plan.

A system for automatic generation of test programs employs test generation foci linked to a finite state machine behavioral model of a software application under test to produce abstract test suites that are executed by an execution engine. The foci include directive expressions that tag coverage variables of the behavioral model. The execution engine operates until the tagged coverage variables have assumed all their possible values. Both the behavioral models and the foci are archivable and can be retrieved and reused independently.

Described herein is a reconciliation mechanism that facilitates reconciliation of deployment environments and dataflow descriptions. A dataflow description describes a dataflow, from which a code implementation can be generated for execution on one or more database systems, referred to as a deployment environment. To generate an implementation for a deployment environment, the elements of a dataflow description are bounded to the elements of a deployment environment. The elements of a deployment environment may change, which in turn may require changes to elements of a dataflow description that are bounded to the changed elements of the deployment environment. The reconciliation mechanism may be used to ascertain the differences between the dataflow description and the deployment environment and facilitate propagation of differences to either. The reconciliation mechanism may also be applied in other contexts, and in fact may be used to establish a binding between any sets of bindable objects.

A method of rapid software application development for a wireless mobile device, comprising the step of calling modular software elements, that each (i) encapsulate functionality required by the wireless mobile device and (ii) share a standard interface structure and (iii) execute on the device, under the control of a command line interface. Because the elements execute under the control of a command line interface (and hence are command line programs) it is far easier for a programmer to explore the functioning of the elements—in particular how an element responds to a given input.
