Partial-image search criteria are derived that include a combination of multiple partial-image user selections of portions of at least one image. Visual search results are returned responsive to a search for images that correspond to the derived partial-image search criteria. The visual search results include at least one identified image that includes features that correspond to the derived partial-image search criteria that include the combination of the multiple partial-image user selections.

Multiple partial-image compositional searching

In searching data on a network, a data set is retrieved from the network based on a search query. Relationships between data of the retrieved data set are determined and a visualization representing related data of the retrieved data set based on the determined relationships is generated and presented. The data of the retrieved data set is accessed based on a selection of represented data within the visualization.

A code annotating system includes a code wrapper engine configured to receive an output stream of target coding language converted from source code. The system further includes an annotator engine configured to automatically annotate a copy of the output stream with source information to create an annotated output document by collecting a call stack associated with a code fragment in the output stream, analyzing the call stack by excluding any information that does not emit content in the target coding language, and annotating the copy with the analyzed call stack, the source information mapping a relationship between the code fragment in the annotated output document and the source code. The system further includes a memory device configured to store the source information.

Embodiments are directed to a computer implemented method of choreographic editing of multimedia and other streams. The method includes receiving, one or more multimedia clips. The multimedia clips are displayed to a user, who can then select one or more of the clips. The user creates one or more synchronization points. An embodiment automatically adjusts the selected multimedia clips using the synchronization points. Thereafter a finished media file is created.

A technique relates comparing content. A first set of content in a first document and a second set of content in a second document are normalized. The first set of content in the first document and the second set of content in the second document are tokenized. The first set of content having been tokenized and the second set of content having been tokenized are compared in order to find differences in the second set of content with respect to the first set of content. The differences are compiled in a changes map. The differences in the changes map are analyzed to determine types of the differences in the first set of content and the second set of content, and predefined differences are to be excluded. A report of the differences is generated, and the report delineates the types of the differences while excluding the predefined differences.

Detection of meaningful changes in content

A technique relates testing an application under test using (AUT) testing. The testing software creates a testcase by executing the AUT under normal usage, and normal usage is defined as operating the AUT for its intended purpose. The normal usage is not part of the testing. Creating the testcase includes capturing artifacts related to running the AUT under the normal usage, and the artifacts include an input artifact to the AUT and an output artifact resulting from executing the AUT. Also, the testcase is executed by re-executing the AUT using the input artifact previously captured in the artifacts of the testcase in order to obtain a new output artifact. The testing software verifies the new output artifact resulting from execution of the testcase by comparing the output artifact previously captured in the artifacts from executing the AUT under the normal usage to the new output artifact from executing the testcase.

Exemplary testing of software

Multiple partial-image selections are received. Each of the multiple partial-image selections includes a user-selected portion of one of a group of images. Partial-image search criteria are derived from a combination of the multiple partial-image selections. A search is performed for images that correspond to the partial-image search criteria derived from the combination of the multiple partial-image selections. Visual search results are returned. The visual search results include at least one identified image that includes features that correspond to the partial-image search criteria derived from the combination of the multiple partial-image selections.

A code annotating system includes a code wrapper engine, an annotator engine, and a memory device. The code wrapper engine receives an output stream produced by a source code of a generator. The code wrapper engine also wraps the output stream to produce a copy of the output stream. The annotator engine automatically annotates the copy with source information. The source information maps a relationship between data in the output stream and the source code of the generator. The memory device stores the source information.

Annotating a generator output stream

A method for automatically and transparently annotating document source code, the method including: receiving an output stream produced by a source code of a generator; wrapping the output stream to produce a copy of the output stream; automatically annotating the copy with source information, wherein the source information maps a relationship between data in the output stream and the source code of the generator; and storing the source information on a memory device.

Related objects are displayed in a user interface. An index value (or other identifier) is associated with each resource in a particular resource group, and this index value enables grouping the resources when a representation of the group is displayed. Spatial consistency may be maintained by displaying the resource groupings in order by their index value, and this order may be maintained over time as the displaying is repeated. The resources in the groupings may correspond to nodes and links in message flows. Preferably, the resources are dynamically determined by observation of their interactions, such as observing the participation of nodes and links in message flows.

Distinct groupings of related objects for display in a user interface

A system and method of characterizing the status of a complex system provide for determining a combined status level of a pair of related objects in an architecture, wherein one of the pair of related objects is a destination object and another of the pair of related objects is a source object. The combined status level determination can be cascaded through the architecture toward a front-end object corresponding to the pair of related objects to obtain a set of combined status levels. A status output may also be generated based on the set of combined status levels.

Summarizing system status in complex models

Display of message flow interactions corresponding to service invocations in a computing environment based on a service-oriented distributed computing model. Aggregations are created, where multiple instances of a particular deployed service operation may be represented by a single node (even though those instances may be hosted on different application servers). Links are depicted between the nodes, where the links represent call paths or invocations among the service operations. A user obtains a high-level, in-context view of the as-observed interactions among service operation instances, and may drill down for further details. A presentation to the user can be automatically scoped to the set of services which are observed as interacting (i.e., via their call relationships), so that the user can be shown that part of the environment that is immediately relevant to a context in which the user launches the view.
