A resource analyzer selects a resource (e.g., document) from a grouping of resources. The grouping of resources can be any type of social tagging system used for information retrieval. The selected resource has an assigned uncontrolled tag and an assigned controlled tag. The controlled tag is a term derived from a controlled vocabulary of terms. Having selected the resource for analyzing, the resource analyzer identifies a first set of resources in the grouping of resources having also been assigned a same value as the uncontrolled tag as the selected resource. Similarly, the resource analyzer identifies a second set of resources in the grouping of resources having also been assigned a same value as the controlled tag. With this information, the resource analyzer then produces a comparison result indicative of a similarity between the first set of resources and the second set of resources.

A system for debugging applications at resource-constrained virtual machines may include a target device configured to host a lightweight debug agent to obtain debug information from one or more threads of execution at a virtual machine executing at the target device, and a debug controller. The lightweight debug agent may include a plurality of independently deployable modules. The debug controller may be configured to select one or more of the modules for deployment at the virtual machine for a debug session initiated to debug a targeted thread, to deploy the selected modules at the virtual machine for the debug session, and to receive debug information related to the targeted thread from the lightweight debug agent during the session.
