Abstract: Techniques are described for offloading the encoding and decoding of multimedia content transmitted during a real-time communication (RTC) session from the virtual desktop to the client device so that the multimedia content can be communicated directly between the client device and the remote peer device without the involvement of the virtual desktop. The offload eliminates the additional network hop of the multimedia content to the virtual desktop that is present in conventional virtual desktop environments, thereby reducing network latency and improving performance, CPU utilization and network load on the virtual machine hosting the virtual desktop. In order to offload the multimedia encoding/decoding, the techniques described herein intercept a number of Application Programming Interface (API) calls to override the messages used to establish a multimedia communication session between the RTC application and the remote peer device.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for reducing unwanted messages or spam within a real-time social networking service. According to certain aspects, a synchronous analysis module may operate in coordination with an asynchronous analysis module. Each of the synchronous analysis module and the asynchronous analysis module analyzes an incoming message from a user account to determine whether the incoming message has characteristics of spam, whereby the synchronous analysis is at a lower latency than the asynchronous analysis. The asynchronous analysis is afforded the ability to identify certain spam characteristics that the synchronous analysis may identify during its lower latency analysis.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for streaming a video. One method includes an operation for initializing, at a client device, a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) server for processing streaming video requests from a streaming video application. Further, the method includes an operation for receiving a bundle that includes bundle files, which include manifest files of a manifest for streaming a video and video files having video data. The method further includes operations for caching the bundle files in memory, and for intercepting, at the HTTP server, a request for a file from the streaming video application. When the file is cached in the memory, the file is returned from the memory; otherwise, the HTTP server acts as a proxy by forwarding the request to a video server and then returning the file to the streaming video application after the file is received from the remote server.

Abstract: A network communications component may be configured to self-lock at a signaled transmission rate. The network communications component may receive a first transmission rate signal indicating a first transmission rate. It may be determined that a transmission rate for the network communications component is unset on the network communications component. Determining that the transmission rate for the network communications component is unset may include accessing an entry for the transmission rate in a vital product data stored on the network communications component. The transmission rate for the network communications component may be set by storing an indication of the received first transmission rate in a memory location on the network communications component. Data transmission by the network communications component may be limited, in accordance with the stored indication of the first transmission rate, to not exceed the set transmission rate.
