An improved solution for resolving interdependencies between heterogeneous artifacts in software systems is provided. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for finding dependencies in a software system is provided, wherein the method includes: obtaining an input resource, wherein the resource includes a plurality of entry points to the software system and at least one strategy; identifying at least one artifact for each of the plurality of entry points; using the at least one strategy for gathering a plurality of related artifacts in the software system, wherein each of the plurality of related artifacts is heterogeneous in at least one of structure, composition, and relationships; determining a dependency between the gathered plurality of related artifacts; and outputting an output resource, wherein the output resource comprises the at least one dependency.

A computer readable storage medium comprises executable instructions to generate a stream cube to store data received from multiple data sources. A plurality of multi-dimensional data streams are generated to represent the received data. A materialization strategy is repeatedly determined for the stream cube. The stream cube is materialized according to the materialization strategy to record the multi-dimensional data streams.

A computer readable storage medium comprises executable instructions to provide a query interface for formulating continuous queries of multi-dimensional data streams. The query interface is populated to generate a plurality of continuous queries. The plurality of continuous queries are executed. The plurality of continuous queries are modified at run-time.

The invention provides transaction synchronization in the form of COMMIT processing in a distributed, heterogeneous database system wherein some resources are synchronized to a transaction by a single-phase commit procedures while other resources synchronize by multi-phase commit procedures. The invention invests an application requestor at an application site with authority to represent all single-phase commit resources in multi-phase commit processing.
