Abstract: A computing device may determine one or more characteristics of a gaming application executing at one or more processors of the computing device. The computing device may determine a gameplay state of the gaming application executing at the one or more processors based at least in part on the one or more characteristics. The computing device may adjust, based at least in part on the state of the gaming application, a target frame rate of image data outputted by the gaming application for display at a display device. The computing device may output, based at least in part on the adjusted target frame rate, the image data for display at the display device.

Abstract: A computing system may receive an indication of a gaming application and an indication of a computing device. The computing system may determine, using collaborative filtering of performance scores of a plurality of gaming applications executing at a plurality of computing devices, a predicted performance of the gaming application executing at the computing device. The computing system may send an indication of the predicted performance of the gaming application executing at the computing device.

Abstract: An application from a plurality of applications executing at one or more processors of a computing device may determine a plurality of memory metrics of the computing device. The application may determine information indicative of a predicted safe amount of memory available for allocation by an application from the plurality of applications based at least in part on the plurality of memory metrics. The application may adjust, based at least in part on the information indicative of the predicted safe amount of memory available for allocation by the application, one or more characteristics of the application executing at the one or more processors to adjust an amount of memory allocated by the application.

Abstract: An assembly and method of forming a press cutting die that includes a cutting blade that is supported by a blade support assembly or blade support. The blade support includes a first base portion and a second base portion that are each contoured to cooperate with one another to capture a portion of the cutting blade along an interface between the first and second base portions. Preferably, one or more keys extend between the first and second base portions and traverse the geometric plane associated with the cutting blade. Such a press cutting die is particularly applicable for cutting biologically compatible materials having a desired shape from a bulk source of the biologically compatible material.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for preparing pharmaceutical and other matrix systems that comprises solidifying a matrix composition dissolved or dispersed in a first solvent and subsequently contacting the solidified matrix with a second solvent that is substantially miscible with the first solvent at a temperature lower than the solidification point of the first solvent, the matrix components being substantially insoluble in the second solvent, whereby the first solvent is substantially removed resulting in a usable matrix.
