Abstract: A data optimization unit divides data of a TCP application into chunks. Then, the data optimization unit calculates a hash value with respect to the chunk, and searches a hash information storage unit from the hash value and a data size of the chunk, and thus, determines duplication of the chunk. Then, in a case where there is no duplication of the chunk, the data optimization unit stores the chunk, and stores the hash value, the data size of the chunk, and the position of the chunk in a hash information storage unit. Then, the data optimization unit compresses the chunk, and transmits compressed data to a transport optimization unit.

Abstract: A processing device in a system can allocate builds to execute jobs across servers in a distributed server environment such as a continuous integration (CI) or continuous deployment (CD) server environment, determine workload patterns, and store a workload pattern vector including a resource usage pattern for the builds and the servers. The processing device can provide an interface that allows a user to switch priorities of user-owned builds in server environments, even after execution of the jobs has begun. The user's ability to prioritize or reprioritize builds is limited to user-prioritizable builds as determined based on the resource usage patterns of the builds running the jobs. The user can thus prioritize some user-owned builds without adversely affecting builds of other users.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for bidirectional multifunction communication between a computing device and applications located at an external server. The bidirectional communications allows an operation to be performed on a file using a computing device and an external server. In one implementation, an application resides on a desktop computer that is connected to the Internet. The application sends a request to an external server accessible through the Internet using a bidirectional communication system. The server accepts and processes the request and provides data back to the computer via the same bidirectional communication system. A user may then access the data, manipulate it and provide an additional request to the server via the bidirectional communication system.
