Abstract: An example method, for implementation by an example notification system, comprises creating a TCP connection between a client device and a cloud device; sending, by the cloud device, a first UDP message to the client device; and waiting, by the client device, to receive the first UDP message until a predetermined time after the creation of the TCP connection. If the client device has not received the first UDP message by the predetermined time, the method comprises sending, by the client device, a second UDP message to the cloud device, wherein sending the second UDP message starts an open time period during which the client device is able to receive UDP messages from the cloud device.

Abstract: Techniques for allocating memory based on memory type request are provided. In one aspect, an application thread may be bound to a first processor. The first processor may be associated with a first memory. A portion of memory may be allocated from the first memory in response to the application thread requesting memory of a first type. A portion of memory from a second memory associated with a second processor may be allocated in response to the application thread requesting memory of a second type.

Abstract: An example for synchronizing data in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure includes monitoring a set of attributes at a plurality of devices on a network, selecting a group of data based on the monitored set of attributes for synchronization, assigning priority levels to each selected data and each device, prioritizing synchronization operations to be performed on the group of selected data based on the priority levels, and synchronizing the group of selected data in accordance with the prioritization of the synchronization.
