  • Method and apparatus for the generation of metadata for video optimization
    Patent number: 10225624
    Abstract: A process for improved upscaling and picture optimization in which the original content is analyzed and metadata for the upscaling and optimization of the content is created. The metadata is then provided along with the content to a playback device. The playback device can then use the metadata to improve the upscaling and display of the content.

  • Method and System for Managing Cloud Based Operations
    Publication number: 20180183858
    Abstract: Computing resources 202, from a cloud computing network 200, are adjusted for a virtualized operation. Data comporting to the computing sources 202 and metrics of the virtualized operation are received and compared against the parameters that are associated with the virtualized operation. When the data and metrics fall outside of the parameters, the virtualized operation and the computing resources 202 can be adjusted to make the use of cloud computing system 200 and resources be used more efficiently.

  • METHOD, APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR OPTIMISING THE UPSCALING TO ULTRAHIGH DEFINITION RESOLUTION WHEN RENDERING VIDEO CONTENT
    Publication number: 20160330400
    Abstract: A process for improved upscaling and picture optimization in which the original lower resolution content is analyzed and metadata for the upscaling and optimization of the content is created. The metadata is then provided along with the content to an upscaling device. The upscaling device can then use the metadata to improve the upscaling which can in turn be incorporated into higher resolution content.
