Abstract: The invention described here is intended for enhancing the technology domain of real-time and high-performance distributed computing. This invention provides a connotative and intuitive grammar that allows users to define how data is to be automatically encoded/decoded for transport between computing systems. This capability eliminates the need for hand-crafting custom solutions for every combination of platform and transport medium. This is a software framework that can serve as a basis for real-time capture, distribution, and analysis of large volumes and variety of data moving at rapid or real-time velocity. It can be configured as-is or can be extended as a framework to filter-and-extract data from a system for distribution to other systems (including other instances of the framework). Users control all features for capture, filtering, distribution, analysis, and visualization by configuration files (as opposed to software programming) that are read at program startup.

Abstract: A sharing extension point receives a request from a host application for sharing content, the sharing extension point being one of the extension points of an extension framework of an operating system, each corresponding to a common interface to extend a predefined functionality of one application to another application. In response, a sharing extension capable of providing content sharing services is launched. Data representing a share sheet created by the sharing extension is injected into a content viewer within the host application as a share sheet clone, where the share sheet clone has a reduced resolution image of the content displayed therein. In response to receiving a commit command for sharing, the actual content is retrieved from the host application and the retrieved content is transmitted to the sharing extension to enable the sharing extension to post the share sheet on a sharing platform.

Abstract: A computer readable medium and method for providing checkpointing to Windows application groups. The checkpointing may be triggered asynchronously using Asynchronous Procedure Calls. The computer readable medium includes computer-executable instructions for execution by a processing system. The computer-executable instructions may be for reviewing one or more command line arguments to determine whether to start at least one of the application groups, and when determining to start the at least one of the application groups, creating a process table in a shared memory to store information about each process of the at least one of the application groups. Further, the instructions may be for registering with a kernel module to create an application group barrier, creating a named pipe for applications of the application group to register and unregister, triggering a checkpoint thread to initiate an application group checkpoint; and launching an initial application of the applications of the application group.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to systems and methods for work queue thread balancing. A global thread pool manager may be configured to receive a request to add a work item to a constituent work queue. The constituent work queue may be described by a work queue thread property.
