  • Publication number: 20130031148
    Abstract: Systems and methods for distributed file storage are provided herein. Exemplary methods may include, dividing a file into sections, distributing one or more of the sections to each of a first subset of the plurality of client devices so that all sections of the file are distributed across the first subset of the plurality of client devices, each of the first subset of the plurality of client devices having storage space that is allocated to the web server, and upon determining that an actual amount of sections that are currently available to the web server are below a threshold amount, redistributing the sections of the file to a second subset of the plurality of client devices determined to have storage space that is allocated to the web server.

  • Patent number: 8149242
    Abstract: There is provided a graphics processing system that includes a main processing unit and a graphics processing unit (GPU). The main processing unit puts rendering commands generated using a graphics library in the queue of a command buffer in a main memory. In this process, the library function offered by the graphics library is converted into the rendering commands, without any rendering attributes retained in the library. The GPU reads and executes the rendering commands stacked in the command buffer, and generates rendering data in a frame buffer.
