Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Java annotations and their predecessors XDoclet annotations are well positioned to offer a substantial benefit for developing and maintaining software by combining relevant metadata together with the code that makes use of them. In this paper we share the insights that we gained by developing the J2EE Connector Tools suite, which is part of IBM Rational Application Developer. This tools suite is used to generate annotated Java code capable of connecting to Enterprise Information Systems through the Java EE Connector APIs. The generated code is annotation driven, and in the paper we show how the annotations in the generated code helped us to achieve a high degree of efficient code maintenance for the tools that generate the code as well as for the generated code itself.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
