Active adaptation of networked compute devices using vetted reusable software components

A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to cause a processor to:

• receive, at a processor, a signal representing system data associated with at least one system capability request associated with a system capability;
• query a repository, using a search algorithm of the processor and in response to receiving the system data, to identify a plurality of candidate application software units suitable for addressing the at least one system capability request, the query referencing the system data;
• automatically select a candidate application software unit from the plurality of candidate application software units;
• and
• cause execution of the automatically selected candidate application software unit on at least one remote compute device in response to automatically selecting the candidate application software unit, such that the automatically selected candidate application software unit is integrated into a software package of the at least one remote compute device to define a modified software package that is configured to provide the system capability.

A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to cause a processor to:

• receive, at a processor, a query referencing a normalized description of at least one system capability request;
• identify, in response to the query, a plurality of candidate application software units based on a search of a repository operably coupled to the processor;
• send a signal including a representation of each candidate application software unit from the plurality of candidate application software units;
• receive a signal representing a user selection of a candidate application software unit from the plurality of candidate application software units;
• and
• sending the user-selected candidate application software unit to at least one remote compute device in response to receiving the user selection, such that the user-selected candidate application software unit is integrated into a software package of the at least one remote compute device to define a modified software package that includes the system capability.

A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to cause a processor to:

• send, via a processor, a first signal representing a text description of at least one system capability request associated with a system capability;
• receive, at the processor and in response to the first signal, a second signal to cause display of a representation of each candidate application software unit from a plurality of candidate application software units;
• detect, at a graphical user interface (GUI) executed by the processor, a user selection of a candidate application software unit from the plurality of candidate application software units;
• receive, in response to the user selection, the user-selected candidate application software unit;
• and
• integrate, via an agent executed by the processor, the user-selected candidate application software unit into a software package stored in a memory operably coupled to the processor, to define a modified software package that includes the system capability,
• the text description of the at least one system capability request associated with a system capability not specifying the user-selected candidate application software unit.
