The present application discloses a method, system, and computer system for managing versions of code. The method includes obtaining a first version of a code, determining whether the first version of the code creates a first conflict with respect to an ancestor version of the code, wherein the ancestor version of the code comprises a set of code that has a dependency relationship on another version of the code, in response to determining that the first version of the code creates the first conflict with respect to the ancestor version of the code, cause the first conflict to be resolved.

Merging code through multiple release branches

The present invention discloses a technique for processing input objects to generate output objects. Initially, an input object is received. The received input object contains input data and one input function. A type of the received input object is determined. Based on the determined type, it is ascertained whether the received input object satisfies one or more predefined requirements. When it is ascertained that the input object satisfies each predefined requirement, the input function is executed.

Object in, object out technique

A data cryptographer encrypts and decrypts character data of any given length using derivative equations and factors. The use of factors and derivative equations introduces the randomness required for effective encryption without the use of complex mathematics. A set of equations determined by the user is used in a manner similar to a key but with random results. Only a portion of the key is exposed to decrypt the encrypted information. The data cryptographer may be configured using either simple or complex equations and may be implemented in an unlimited number of variations. The data cryptographer is portable, and can be implemented in any programming language that supports cyclical character manipulation. The data cryptographer also supports input from a variety of sources, allowing control from the administrator side, string value side, or any other input that may be extracted from the desired programming language.

Method for encrypting and decrypting data using derivative equations and factors

Disclosed are a method, system, and program product for calling a Common Thread Object from a running process. This is done by comprising invoking a Thread Invocation Object from the running process; creating a Generic Request Object from the Thread Invocation Object and populating the Generic Request Object with Common Thread Object and running process data; and passing data from the Generic Request Object to the Common Thread Object to initiate the common thread task.

Common thread server

The present invention discloses a multi-connection control system. Initially, one or more requests to access a system are received. For each request, it is determined whether to allow access to the system using an access vector to identify an available access object.
