Abstract: Message display control means updates and displays messages sequentially on a message list screen each time message receiving means receives a message. When input detection means detects a response message, identification means identifies the latest message at the time of detection and the response message. Response message sending means sends the response message as a response to the identified message to other participants upon completion of input of the response message. Therefore, even in the case where the message list screen is updated due to receiving the subsequent message during the input of the response message, the completed response message is able to be sent back to the response object message.

Abstract: A sender transmits media streams at receiver-enabled resolutions. The sender, a media server that has multiple resolutions of media available to stream, is made aware of the capability of the receiver to process lower resolution media streams, including a super-resolution capability to enhance the lower resolution media stream using temporal and/or spatial information contained in the lower resolution media stream. The media server sends lower resolution streams to the receiver, thereby freeing up bandwidth on the communication channel for other uses. The receiver can notify the sender of events that affect the status of the super-resolution capability on the receiver, and the sender can adjust the resolution and bitrate of the media stream accordingly to optimize use of the communication channels and resources by encoding and transmitting high resolution video frames only when needed.

Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, network traffic management apparatuses, and network traffic management systems that monitor one or more messages generated by an application or one or more characteristics of one or more transmission control protocol (TCP) connections with a destination device or a source device. A determination is made when a first TCP push flag should be set for a first packet associated with data based on the monitoring. The data is provided by the application. The first TCP push flag for the first packet is set prior to the first packet being sent to the destination device via a first one of the TCP connections, based on the determination that the first TCP push flag should be set for the first packet. Accordingly, this technology more effectively manages TCP push functionality to reduce acknowledgement messages (ACKs) and thereby improve network bandwidth and device resource utilization.
