A single Internet of Things (IoT) gateway flow computer (either on a gateway machine or a non-gateway machine) that controls flow through both of the following types of gateways: (i) cloud gateways; and (ii) edge gateways. Both overall configuration and sub-configuration are automatically and dynamically controlled by the single, system-wide IoT gateway flow computer.

In an approach for providing a framework to register a sensor module and manifest the capability the sensor module supports, a processor receives a first module registration request, wherein the first module registration request includes a sensor module and metadata. A processor determines that the first module registration request is compatible with a second module registration request by comparing data stored in a module database associated with the second module registration request to data within the first module registration request. A processor updates the module database with the metadata of the first module registration request. A processor generates a module delegate, wherein the module delegate provides data access and interaction interfaces based on the metadata. A processor generates a custom configuration component.

A system for improving memory management in a hybrid programming environment where a server program receives a request to execute a script. The server program instructs an embedded script engine to execute the script. The server program creates a session manager to manage objects associated with the script. The objects are comprised of host objects that reside in a program memory space, and script objects that reside in an embedded script engine memory space. The session manager creates a session associated with the execution of the script, and associated objects created during the execution of the script. Upon receiving notification of completion and/or termination of the execution of the script, the server program requests invalidation and/or deletion of the objects associated with the session. Deletion of host objects immediately releases memory in the program memory space without waiting for the scheduled garbage collection.

Effective memory management for host objects in a runtime environment with embedded garbage-collected based dynamic language

Embodiments relate to an isolated program execution environment. An aspect includes receiving, by the isolated program execution environment on a computer comprising a processor and a memory, a request to run a program. Another aspect includes wrapping program code corresponding to the program as a function. Another aspect includes cloning a real global object of the isolated program execution environment to create a fake global object. Another aspect includes passing the fake global object to the function. Another aspect includes executing the function, such that the function executes the program.
