Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to systems and methods for compressing digital works, such as books, magazines and similar works. Compressing a digital work may comprise finding an entry for a first string from the digital work in a compression dictionary and replacing a string value of the first string from the digital work with a first string reference associated with the first string at the entry for the first string. The compression dictionary may be generated, for example, from digital works associated with a user or user device that requested the digital work. Also, in some embodiments, the digital work itself may be used as a compression dictionary.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable storage media are disclosed for providing a virtual single-user session to a client in a terminal server session. In an embodiment, requests to a resource in the system-space of a system made by an application are intercepted. A determination is made as to whether to virtualize the resource for the application. Where the resource is to be virtualized, a user-specific virtualized resource is created or maintained in user-space and provided to the application.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media are disclosed for virtualizing remote presentation session licensing issuance for a system executing a plurality of virtual machines hosting a remote presentation session server. In an embodiment, a licensing broker is executed in the host partition of the system, and each session server, upon receiving a request for a license from a client, transmits the request to the broker. The broker completes the license negotiation with a license server responsible for issuing licenses, and once issued, the broker transmits this to the corresponding session server, which completes the licensing transaction with the client.
