1355results about How to "Easy to export" patented technology

A generic testing framework to automatically allocate, install and verify a given version of a system under test, to exercise the system against a series of tests in a “hands-off” objective manner, and then to export information about the tests to one or more developer repositories (such as a query-able database, an email list, a developer web server, a source code version control system, a defect tracking system, or the like). The framework does not “care” or concern itself with the particular implementation language of the test as long as the test can issue directives via a command line or configuration file. During the automated testing of a given test suite having multiple tests, and after a particular test is run, the framework preferably generates an “image” of the system under test and makes that information available to developers, even while additional tests in the suite are being carried out. In this manner, the framework preserves the system “state” to facilitate concurrent or after-the-fact debugging. The framework also will re-install and verify a given version of the system between tests, which may be necessary in the event a given test is destructive or otherwise places the system in an unacceptable condition.

An object-oriented system for building and maintaining a spatial data structure for use in topological applications. The data is organized in a database which incorporates spatial feature location, attributes, and metadata information in a relational framework across a hierarchy. The system provides for the instantiation of the objects and levels that make up the database and for spatially indexing the data among the objects across hierarchical levels. The data can be updated while preserving the spatial linking among objects and levels, and the data can be exported to a relational vector product format database.

A variable-length binary string is utilized to encode node identifiers in a tree for an XML document object model. A general prefix encoding scheme is followed; a node identifier is generated by the concatenation of encodings at each level of a tree along a path from a root node to another particular node. Arbitrary insertions are supported without change to existing node identifier encodings. In addition, the method provides for document order when unsigned binary string comparison is used to compare encoded node identifiers. In support of sub-document concurrency control, prefix encoding provides a way to derive ancestor-descendant relationships among nodes in a tree. Lastly, the encoding method provides a natural pre-order clustering sequence, also known as depth-first clustering. If a prefix is applied to an encoding with a level number, starting with zero at the root, width-first clustering will result. A mixed clustering can also be supported.
