Abstract: This application describes a method, a system, and a related device for network attached storage (NAS) data access. The method includes receiving, by a NAS client, an access request message, and determining an operation object according to information about to-be-accessed target data in the access request message, where the operation object includes a directory and/or a file to which the target data belongs. The method may also include generating a first direct memory access file system (DMAFS) packet according to a format described by using a preset file system type, where the preset file system type is used to describe a format of a DMAFS packet. Furthermore, the method may include sending the first DMAFS packet to an acceleration apparatus, so that the acceleration apparatus converts the operation object and an operation type that are in the first DMAFS packet into NFS data, and encapsulates the NFS data into a network protocol packet and sends the network protocol packet to a NAS server.

Abstract: In an embodiment a method of online video communication is disclosed. An online video communication is established between a source device and a receiving device. The source device captures a live video recording of a sending user. The captured recording is analyzed to identify one or more characteristics of the sending user. The source device then generates avatar data corresponding to the identified characteristics. The avatar data is categorized into a plurality of groups, wherein a first group of the at least two groups comprises avatar data that is more unique to the sending user. Finally, at least the first group of the plurality of groups is transmitted to the receiving device. The transmitted first group of avatar data defines, at least in part, how to animate an avatar that mimics the sending user's one or more physical characteristics.
