Systems and methods for creating application runtime environments or application environments that can be downloaded and integrated into the computing environment of a computing device are disclosed. One embodiment of the invention includes a computing device on which an operating system is installed that creates a computing environment, an Application Platform application, where the Application Platform application is at least partially natively implemented and creates an application runtime environment when executed by the computing device, and a cross-platform application, where the cross-platform application is configured to be executed within the application runtime environment and is not natively executable by the computing device. In addition, the Application Platform application is configured to integrate the cross-platform application into the computing environment of the computing device by providing at least one launch point for the cross-platform application within the computing environment.

Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for automatically updating a hybrid web application. In some implementations, a computing device can be configured with a hybrid application that includes a native layer and a web view. The native layer can provide access to native features of the computing device while the web view can provide web client features, such as graphical user interfaces and server communication functionality. When the hybrid application is invoked, the native layer can load a resource bundle from local storage. The resource bundle can include the web code needed to present the web view graphical user interface, manage application data, and/or facilitate communication with the web server. To update the hybrid application, the application can download an updated resource bundle from the web server and reload the web code from the resource bundle.

The current document is directed to methods and systems that receive instrumentation-generated events and that employ statistical inference to discover event topics and to assign an action to each of a number of events and that use the actions to predict future events and actions. In a described implementation, accumulated action messages are used to build a predictive model for each monitored website and the predictive model is used, in turn, to predict future actions based on already received actions.

A method for a java application to access an intelligent key apparatus. The apparatus comprises: a java application calling a JNI interface; obtaining a corresponding lower level interface function according to a correspondence table of a JNI interface function and the lower level interface function; converting a source parameter list of the JNI interface function into a target parameter list of the corresponding lower level interface function according to the target parameter list of the lower level interface function; calling a lower level interface; accessing an intelligent key apparatus; obtaining a returned result; and returning a value of the returned result to the java application. By means of the method in the present invention, it is not easy to obtain a source code by decompiling a java application, thereby improving the security of the java application accessing an intelligent key apparatus.

The present invention discloses a method and a system for protecting root CA certificates in a virtualization environment. The method installs a root CA certificate security manager on a host computer. The root CA certificate security manager stores the lists of root CA certificates and provides certificate validation service to virtual machines via a read-only interface. When a virtual machine needs the verification of a certificate, it sends a certificate validation service request to the root CA security manager. The root CA certificate security manager provides certificate validation services to the virtual machine in response to the request. The virtual list of root CA certificates in the present invention has the following features: it isolates the list of the root CA certificates from the virtual machine; the virtual machine can only access the list of the root CA certificates in a read-only manner; modification or configuration of the lists of root CA certificates can only be made via an interface of the CA certificate security manager on the host computer; and the virtual machine can flexibly choose the way how a certificate is to be verified.

A device may identify a tool operating on a first device for integration into a lifecycle management platform operating on a second device. The tool may be associated with providing a functionality not included in the lifecycle management platform. The first device may be external to the second device. The device may determine a set of tool attributes for data events associated with the tool. The data events may include a data input, a data output, a new message, an updated message, a deleted message, or the like. The device may select a message format based on the set of tool attributes. The device may configure adaptation for a tool application programming interface (API) of the tool and a platform API of the lifecycle management platform based on the message format. The device may provide information associated with configuring adaptation for the tool API and the platform API.

In one embodiment, a software agent profiler process attaches to an application and a primary instrumentation interface for the application, and discovers one or more software agents associated with the application. The software agent profiler process may then launch the one or more software agents within an encapsulated container environment of the software agent profiler process by configuring each of the one or more software agents, respectively, to point to a proxy instrumentation interface of the software agent profiler process instead of the primary instrumentation interface for the application. As such, the software agent profiler process may receive calls from the one or more software agents on the proxy instrumentation interface of the software agent profiler process, and can manage the calls from the one or more application agents prior to the calls being passed to the primary instrumentation interface for the application.

System and method for controlling a custom modular measurement system. An editor may receive user input specifying one or more system definitions, each mapping message based commands, parameters, variables and/or metadata (“information”) accordant with a control protocol for standalone instruments to functions and data in a programming language, and generates the definitions accordingly, each being useable by a client application to interface with a custom modular measurement system that includes multiple logical instruments via the message based information. At least one of the definitions may be deployed onto the measurement system. A run-time engine of the measurement system may accept a message based command from the application, and call a corresponding function, which may invoke operation of at least one of the logical instruments. The logical instruments may be operated concurrently, including sharing use of a single physical measurement device by at least two of the logical instruments.

Resource processing during run time can be performed asynchronously from emulation of an application by a central processing unit. For example, an emulator can include a main processing thread that performs emulation processes. In response to encountering a shader, or other resource, to be processed, the emulator can invoke a separate asynchronous thread to perform such processing. Processed resources, such as translated shaders and generated textures, can be stored in a cache. In response to a command that uses a resource, such as a draw command that invokes a shader or other resource, the emulator can use the processed resource in the cache. If the processed resource is not in the cache, the emulator can skip processing the command that uses the resource. If processed resources can be obtained from other sources and loaded in the cache, processing of resources by the emulator can be eliminated.

Returning a runtime type loaded from an archive in a module system is disclosed. Operations include (a) identifying, by a class loader implemented in a runtime environment, an archived runtime type loaded into an archive from a module source; (b) identifying a particular package associated with the archived runtime type; (c) determining that the particular package is defined to a runtime module that is defined to (i) the class loader or (ii) any class loader in the class loader hierarchy to which the class loader delegates; and (d) returning directly or indirectly, by the class loader, a runtime type loaded based on the archived runtime type from the archive.
