Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for managing computing resources for a remote session that has been established between a client and a remote server via a communication channel. Such a remote session is configured to automatically adapt image quality of the remote session based on a network status of the communication channel. The described technique includes detecting an inactive state of the remote session, and in turn, modifying at least one network setting of the client using a network shaping rule specified to artificially reduce a network quality of the communication channel used by the client for traffic of the remote session, so as to cause the client to reduce image quality of the remote session and reduce an amount of data exchanged between the remote server and the client.

Abstract: A system and method is provided that enables the recovery of data packets transmitted over an unreliable network. The system and method utilize an algorithm for transmitting the data packets with restoration of lost data during data transfer over UDP Protocol encrypted with DTLS Protocol. Advantageously, the algorithm does not require changes to data for either UDP or DTLS packets, but rather a separate, specifically designed packet is transmitted to the recipient to facilitate and ensure the recovery of any lost data packets over the unreliable network.

Abstract: Virtual computer systems (virtual machines) have become increasingly common with the evolution of virtualization technology, cloud computing, etc. However, as a virtual machine and its associated guest operating system seek to execute and/or access a page of memory through synchronous processes execution of the virtual processor associated with the virtual processing is blocked until the page of memory is locked and available. Accordingly, time is wasted on calls waiting for physical page availability thereby reducing utilization of the host machine and virtual machine respectively. To address this an asynchronous virtual machine environment is established allowing the virtual machine or physical machine to handle additional operations whilst waiting for physical page availability.

The system generates the chain application configured to execute the first application and the second application in the updated sequence of execution.
