Abstract: Systems and methods for skipping a presentation of a portion of segments to catch up to live based on a priority level value is disclosed. For example, a streaming application generates a content item for live streaming where the content item comprises a plurality of segments. In response to determining that playing of the content item lags behind the live streaming of the content item, the streaming application identifies a duration of lag and determines a priority threshold based on the lag. Based on a manifest which includes priority level information, the streaming application determines whether a respective segment needs to be cached. For example, if a priority level for a segment that is within the duration of the lag has a priority level that is higher the priority threshold, then the segment is stored in a cache from a respective network address and is played from the cache.

Abstract: The present application discloses a zwitterionic polypeptide and a derivative thereof and a nanodrug based thereon. The nanodrugs can be prepared based on the zwitterionic polypeptide or derivatives thereof. The secondary structure of the zwitterionic polypeptide in the nanodrugs has excellent conversion ability before and after drug release, which can accelerate the release of drugs in cells. The prepared nanodrug can be used in tumor targeted therapy to achieve unexpected tumor targeting with excellent capability in blood compatibility, immune recognition escaping, tumor cell internalization and nucleus targeting, and thus reduces the biodistribution of the nanodrug in liver, kidney, spleen, lung, heart and other health organs which have plenty of reticuloendothelial tissues. Consequently, the prepared nanodrug can effectively inhibit tumor growth with low toxicity in vivo.
