Abstract: A sequence of compressed video frames is received. A transformer diffusion model is applied to the sequence of compressed video frames. Applying the transformer diffusion model includes utilizing a look around model in an encoding portion of the transformer diffusion model and a look ahead model in a decoding portion of the transformer diffusion model. A restored video sequence is generated based on an output of the transformer diffusion model.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for processing and streaming real-time graphics by a video-server for synchronized output via secondary-network connected display adapters to multiple displays arranged as a video-wall. This system enables the video-server to leverage performance advantages afforded by advanced GPUs, combined with low-cost Smart displays or System-on-Chip devices to deliver advanced realtime video-wall capabilities over the network while offering flexibility in the selection of network display adapters and still achieving synchronized output of multiple sub-image streams to selected end-point displays. This has applications generally in the field of real-time multiple-display graphics distribution as well as specific applications in the field of network video-walls. A method and computer readable medium are also disclosed that operate in accordance with the system.

Abstract: A request for a latency value associated with the a is received at a latency agent associated with the sink from a processing engine. The latency value associated with the sink is determined. The determined latency value associated with the sink is provided from the latency agent associated with the sink to the processing engine. A latency adjustment value is received at the latency agent associated with a sink from the processing engine. A latency associated with the sink is adjusted by the latency agent associated with the sink to match the received latency adjustment value.

Abstract: A new configuration associated with a plurality of sources and/or a plurality of sinks is detected. Data associated with a plurality of sources is transmitted to the plurality of sinks via a plurality of networks including at least one external network. A latency adjustment value associated with the plurality of sinks is determined. The latency adjustment value is transmitted to a latency agent that adjusts latency introduced by the external network.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable medium for switching (via a hub connection device) peripheral devices (such as a display, keyboard, mouse, audio) between a primary computing device (such as an embedded computer or a network connected server) and a secondary portable personal computing device (such as a laptop, or a smart-phone). The present invention relates generally to multi-user computing, docking stations, and embedded system on a chip computing and specifically to methods and systems for switching peripheral devices between multiple computers both for independent and/or multi-user operation. This invention enables a single set of peripherals to be used for both independent and docking station operation, increasing productivity for users of portable computing devices (through expanded peripheral access) and decreasing deployment costs for organizations (by supporting multiple use-cases via just a single set of peripherals).

Abstract: A system is disclosed for improving the flexibility and performance of video walls including a method for using a primary GPU for initial rendering to a GPU frame buffer, copying of this frame buffer to system memory for processing into multiple sub-frames then outputting the sub-frames via multiple secondary graphics controllers. This system enables the video wall server to leverage performance advantages afforded by GPU acceleration and maintaining performance while providing full flexibility of the CPU and system memory to apply the required transformations to the sub-images as well as flexibility in the selection of secondary graphics controllers (including network graphics approaches where the graphics controller is connected over a network) for outputting the multiple sub-images to a plurality of displays. This has applications generally in the field of real-time multiple display graphics processing as well as specific applications in the field of video walls and network video walls.
