IPC Code(s): G06F11/07, G06F11/30
CPC Code(s): G06F11/0793
Abstract: techniques are disclosed relating to software failover across multiple computing regions. software entities in a first computing region implement failure recovery routines on an as-needed basis, which can include utilizing code in a recovery api. these software entities can subscribe to receive failure notifications for that region. when an indication of a regional failure is received (e.g., indicating that some specified threshold of servers in the first computing region have failed or are likely to fail), a failure notification can be published. the computing region can then use a list of subscribing software entities to initiate recovery routines for those entities to failover to a different one of the computing regions. in some implementations, software entities can handle failover for dependent components. thus, when failover is initiated for a particular software product, the product can initiate failover for any constituent components (e.g., services that make up the software product).

CPC Code(s): G06F11/3457
Abstract: methods, systems, and devices supporting mapping user interface (ui) states for a web document are described. a ui state mapper program may determine a set of interactable elements that are configured to cause a ui state change to a ui of the web document, such as from a configuration for the web document. the ui state mapper program may interact with the set of interactable elements of the ui. the ui state mapper program may generate sets of nodes in a graphical node representation in response to the interacting. the sets of nodes may include nodes of a first node type with a ui state change resulting from a universal resource locator (url) change and nodes of a second node type with a ui state change resulting from a visual effect on the ui without a url change. the ui state mapper may generate a computer readable record indicating a sequence of interactions by the ui state mapper program to generate the graphical node representation.

IPC Code(s): G06F12/02
CPC Code(s): G06F12/0253
Abstract: garbage collection roots for an application may be identified based on a garbage collector implemented in a programming environment. a garbage collection root may correspond with an object and a class definition. retained memory values may be determined for the garbage collection roots via a graph dominator. a retained memory value may indicate an amount of memory employed by a garbage collection root. application classes and associated class memory values may be determined. an application class may include one or more of the garbage collection roots associated with object class definitions positioned within a portion of a class definition hierarchy corresponding with the respective application class. a class memory value may aggregate the retained memory values for garbage collection roots included within an application class. a source of a change in memory usage between application versions may be identified based on the application classes and class memory values.

IPC Code(s): G06N3/084
CPC Code(s): G06N3/084
Abstract: embodiments described herein provide a strongly adaptive online conformal prediction (saocp) framework that manages multiple experts each for predicting a respective prediction radius, while each expert only operates on its own active interval. an aggregated prediction radius may be computed as a weighted sum of the predicted radii, each weighted by the respective probability that the respective expert is active at the time step. specifically, each expert may be operated with a scale-free ogd (sf-ogd) method to update the generated predicted radius. a base conformal predictor may then generate a prediction set using the aggregated radius at the time step.
