Patent number: 11395314Abstract: Described herein are techniques for optimizing scheduling of access events (e.g., downloads) on mobile devices based on server congestion. In some embodiments, response times are monitored for a number of servers at various times to establish availability patterns for those servers. An indication of a number of software applications installed upon a mobile device is used to identify a number of access events to be associated with that mobile device. The servers associated with those access events are identified and an access schedule is generated based on the availability patterns. The access schedule is then provided to the mobile device, which initiates execution of the access events according to the access schedule.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2020Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventors: Kanakrai Chauhan, Ankit Awasthi

Patent number: 11343298Abstract: Embodiments enable display updates other than a video stream in a graphical user interface (GUI) to be rendered, encoded, and transmitted exclusive of the video stream. A virtual machine generates a GUI that includes an encoded video stream and other display updates. A virtual graphics processing unit (VGPU) stack associated with the VM renders the other display updates of the GUI to a framebuffer. The rendered display updates are encoded and transmitted to a client for display. The encoded video stream, or a modified (e.g., reduced bit rate) version of the encoded video stream, may be transmitted to the client, such that the client can display the encoded video stream within the GUI. For example, the encoded video stream may be selectively transmitted to the client based on the performance capabilities of the client.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2019Date of Patent: May 24, 2022Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Alexei Kruglikov, Dustin Michael Byford

Patent number: 11343349Abstract: A Rules-Based Just-In-Time (RBJIT) content streaming engine collects information such as behavior, usage, movement, and preferences about a user, any groups that the user is associated with, and the set of all users in general. Based on this information, the RBJIT may preferentially select multimedia content and content suggestions for user display, increasing the likelihood that the surfaced content will be of interest to a user. In this way, browsing time for a user on a device with a limited form factor is reduced and network bandwidth is conserved by not surfacing content that the user ultimately will not view.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2020Date of Patent: May 24, 2022Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventors: Kanakrai Chauhan, Ankit Awasthi
