International Classification:

G06F 15/173

US Classification:

709226, 709223, 709224

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are techniques for creating a representation of dependency relationships between computing resources within a computing environment. In some implementations, one or more sources for dependency analysis may be identified. Each source may be capable of being accessed to provide computing functionality via the computing environment. Each source may include one or more references to a respective one or more computing resources. Each computing resource may define a unit of the computing functionality available within the computing environment. A plurality of dependency relationships may be identified based on the one or more sources. A dependency relationship representation may be created based on the identified dependency relationships.

International Classification:

G06F 15/173

US Classification:

709226

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are techniques for provisioning computing services. In some implementations, a plurality of computing resources available within a computing environment are identified. The plurality of computing resources may be capable of being used to provide computing services via the computing environment. Each of the computing resources may comprise a respective unit of computing functionality available within the computing environment. A plurality of dependency relationships among the computing resources may be identified. Based on the identified dependency relationships, a first one or more of the computing resources may be selected for inclusion in a license definition. A license conforming to the license definition may provide an entity with access to the computing functionality associated with the first one or more computing resources.

International Classification:

G06F 3/00
G06F 15/173

US Classification:

715738, 709223

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are techniques for identifying computing resources specified by a representation of a computing service. In some implementations, a request to analyze a computing service provided via a computing environment may be received. The computing service may have an activated state in which the computing service is available for use and a deactivated state in which the computing service is not available for use. The computing environment may comprise a plurality of computing resources each defining a variable unit of computing functionality within the computing environment. Each computing resource may be associated with a respective parameter corresponding with a respective parameter value that specifies a level of the variable unit of computing functionality defined by the computing resource. The computing service may be represented by a metadata model comprising a plurality of nodes, at least some of which specify a respective one or more of the parameter values.

International Classification:

G06F 3/00

US Classification:

715744

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are techniques for providing a user interface component. In some implementations, a request for the user interface component may be received at a computing device. The user interface component may have a default visual presentation. A branding override may be selected from a plurality of available branding overrides. The branding override may define a modification to the default visual presentation of the user interface component. The branding override may be selected based on one or more contextual variables associated with the request for the user interface component. The user interface component may be modified in accordance with the selected branding override. The user interface component may be displayed on a display device.

International Classification:

G06F 1520

US Classification:

364578

Abstract:

A simulation system for circuit design is disclosed. The system couples a schematic editor and simulator to allow incremental changes to a design under test without requiring prior shutdown of the simulator. The system uses a method which permits a wide range of changes to the design and provides a resulting netlist for the changed design. Changes can be made to the schematic which include changes in hierarchy, addition or deletion of components (including hierarchical components), addition or deletion of signals at any level within the design hierarchy, addition or deletion of interconnections of components at any level of hierarchy within the design, addition and deletion of interface ports for any component type, substitution of a new component for an existing one (including swapping hierarchical and behavioral descriptions), and alteration of parametric data such as device delay timing. The simulation continues to run after design changes are made. The method may be used in conjunction with hardware modeling systems.
