Abstract:
An embodiment of the invention pertains to a method that includes an operating system, program components running on the operating system, and a file system associated with one or more files. Responsive to a write request sent from a specified program component to the operating system, in order to write specified data content to a given file, the method determines whether the write request meets a criterion, which is derived from the identity of at least one of the specified program component, and the given file. If the criterion is met, a message is immediately sent to release the specified program component from a wait state. Data portions of the specified data content are then selectively written to a storage buffer, and subsequently written from the buffer to the given file.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for evaluating code. A likelihood that a set of segments of the code will not run as desired based on a policy is identified. A risk of the code not performing as desired is evaluated based on a result from a code coverage test and the likelihood that the set of segments of the code will not run as desired.
