Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for improved interoperable data management between a user-accessed software application and an embedded software application. In some contexts, a user-accessed application provides both its own functionality as well as enabling access to functionality of an embedded application. The embedded application is accessed via a data-driven connection that provides several technical advantages and addresses various data interoperability and persistence problems. In some embodiments, a user-accessed application may be configured to provide functionality of multiple embedded applications consistent with the innovations herein described.

Abstract: Architectures or techniques are presented that can prioritize operating a consumption device in a manner that is efficient in terms of consumption of a resource over satisfying a specified demand assigned to the consumption device. This re-prioritizing can be performed in response to a price of the resource exceeding a threshold.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an image manipulation application receives, via a user interface, an input to manipulate an image displayed at a target resolution. The image manipulation application determines a normalized number of tracker events between two consecutive renditions of the image caused by manipulating the image based on the input. Based on the normalized number of tracker events, the image manipulation application selects a version of the image from a set of versions of the image that have different resolutions of the image including the target resolution. The selected version of the image has a lower resolution than the target resolution. The image manipulation application manipulates the selected version of the image based on the input and generates an updated image for display in the user interface in the next rendition of the image.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for sharing data among computing devices. In one technique, a first device broadcasts wireless data and establishes a wireless connection with a second device. The first device receives authorization data and first entity data from the second device. The first device authorizes the second device based on the authorization data. The first device then sends second entity data through the wireless connection to the second computing device. The first device sends the first entity data over a network to a remote server system. The first device receives, from the remote server system, entity data that pertains to an entity that is identified by the first entity data. The first device may then display at least a portion of the entity data on a screen of the first device.
