Appl. No.:

12/732100

International Classification:

G06F 9/44

US Classification:

717126

Abstract:

Dependence-based software builds are described. In embodiments, authored source code is received as inputs to a computer device to develop a buildable unit of a software build project. The software build project includes multiple buildable units that can be allocated for independent development among multiple developers, such as at computer devices local to each developer. At the computer device, dependent buildable units are identified that have a dependency relationship with the buildable unit for execution. The authored source code of the buildable unit is then validated to determine that the buildable unit executes with the dependent buildable units for error-free execution before the buildable unit is subsequently provided to a software build service that compiles the multiple buildable units to generate the software build project.

Abstract:

In embodiments of processing optimization load adjustment, work units of a software build project are processed, and the processing generally maximizes utilization of the processing resources of a computing device. Performance data of the processing resources is collected as the work units of the software build project are processed. A determination is made as to whether utilization of the processing resources is optimal to process the software build project while avoiding adverse resource conditions. The number of the work units that are processing can then be increased in response to determining that utilization of the processing resources is not optimal. Alternatively, the number of the work units that are processing can be decreased in response to determining that utilization of the processing resources exceeds optimal processing. Alternatively, the work units that are processing can be allowed to complete processing without scheduling additional work units for processing.

Abstract:

In embodiments of dynamic replication of networked files, a process that utilizes file system objects is executed on a computing device. A file system request that is initiated by the process for a requested file system object can be intercepted, and a determination is made as to whether the requested file system object exists based on file system metadata. The file system request from the process is returned if the requested file system object is stored on the computing device. Alternatively, replication of the requested file system object is initiated from a networked peer device that has the requested file system object to replicate the file system object to the computing device. Alternatively, an indication that the requested file system object does not exist can be returned to the process.
