Technological advancements are disclosed that utilize inertial sensor data associated with a device to determine a new feature array and if the new feature array is within an existing class within a state space associated with the inertial sensor data. In response to the new feature array being included in the existing class, the new feature array is added to the existing class and a representation of the existing class in the state space is updated based on the new feature array and an existing representation of the existing class. In response to the new feature array not being included in the existing class, a new class is created based on the new feature array.

A graph-based program specification includes components corresponding to tasks and directed links between ports of the components, including: a first type of link configuration defined by respective output and input ports of linked components, and a second type of link configuration defined by respective output and input ports of linked components. A compiler recognizes different types of link configurations and provides in a target program specification occurrences of a target primitive for executing a function for each occurrence of a data element flowing over a link of the second type. A computing node initiates execution of the target program specification, and determines at runtime, for components associated with the occurrences of the target primitive, an order in which instances of tasks corresponding to the components are to be invoked, and/or a computing node on which instances of tasks corresponding to the components are to be executed.

A method for using an access triggered architecture for a computer implemented application is provided. The method receives a set of data at a designated functional block associated with a system memory location; performs an operation at the designated functional block, using the set of data, to generate a result, wherein the operation is performed each time information is received at the designated functional block; and returns the generated result to the system memory location.

A graph-based program specification includes components, at least one having at least one input port for receiving a collection of data elements, or at least one collection type output port for providing a collection of data elements. Executing a program specified by the graph-based program specification at a computing node, includes: receiving data elements of a first collection into a first storage in a first order via a link connected to a collection type output port of a first component and an input port of a second component, and invoking a plurality of instances of a task corresponding to the second component to process data elements of the first collection, including retrieving the data elements from the first storage in a second order, without blocking invocation of any of the instances until after any particular instance completes processing one or more data elements.

Techniques are provided for determining predicted results for entities based on relatedness of the entities in a graph of nodes. In an embodiment, the graph of nodes is generated based on the determined relatedness of the entities. A node in the graph of nodes represents an entity, and nodes representing entities with known results are assigned those results as their respective node values. The assigned node values are then propagated between the neighboring nodes throughout the graph of nodes in the amount determined by the relatedness of the nodes. Based on the propagation, node values for entities with unknown results are determined and represent the predicted results for those entities. Additionally, various classifiers may be combined with the propagated node values to increase the accuracy of the predicted results.

A data modeling studio provides a structured environment for graphically creating and executing models which may be configured for diagnosis, prognosis, analysis, identifying relationships, etc., within a process plant. The data modeling studio includes a configuration engine for generating user interface elements to facilitate graphical construction of a model and a runtime engine for executing data models in, for example, an offline or an on-line environment. The configuration engine includes an interface routine that generates user interface elements, a plurality of templates stored in memory that serve as the building blocks of the model and a model compiler that converts the graphical model into a data format executable by the run-time engine. The run time engine executes the model to produce the desired output and may include a retrieval routine for retrieving data corresponding to the templates from memory and a modeling routine for executing the executable model.

Exemplary embodiments provide methods, mediums, and systems for generating a runtime environment that is customized to a particular computer program, particularly in terms of the function definitions that support function calls made in the computer program. The customized runtime environment may therefore be smaller in size than a conventional runtime environment. To create such a customized runtime environment, an analyzer may be provided which monitors test executions of the computer program and/or performs a structural analysis of the source code of the computer program. The analyzer may determine a list of probabilistically or deterministically required function definitions, and provide the list to a component reducer. The component reducer may eliminate any function definitions not deemed to be required from a runtime environment, thereby producing a customized runtime environment that is built to support a particular computer program.

A method for displaying differences between a first executable dataflow graph and a second executable dataflow graph includes comparing a specification of the first executable dataflow graph and a specification of the second executable dataflow graph, including at least one of identifying a particular node or link of the first dataflow graph that does not correspond to any node or link of the second dataflow graph; and identifying a first node or link of the first dataflow graph that corresponds to a second node or link of the second dataflow graph, and identifying a difference between the first node or link and the second node or link. The method includes formulating and displaying a graphical representation of at least some of the nodes or links of the first dataflow graph or the second dataflow graph, the graphical representation including a graphical indicator of at least one of the identified particular node or link the identified difference between the first node or link and the second node or link.

A method provides processor initialization in different platform environments via a single code set. The method includes: in response to detecting a power-on operation of the processor, a microcontroller retrieving hardware procedures (HWP) framework code from a storage and triggering execution of the HWP framework code on the processor. The execution of the HWP framework code generates a HWP framework that comprises a plurality of application programming interfaces (APIs) which govern how all communication processes involving hardware procedures can be accomplished. The method further includes performing one or more initialization procedures by communicating one or more attribute data via the HWP framework to configure the processor for operation within a specific platform environment in which the processor is to be operated. The HWP framework includes standard interfaces and enables direct updates to hardware procedures without requiring a new flash code or a firmware patch.
