Abstract: A system and method for managing sizing of a plurality of sliding download windows in a virtual file system commences when a user device accesses a server in a cloud-based platform. An application on the user device issues a first file request for an object that is stored in the cloud-based platform. The virtual file system module allocates a first sliding window and prospectively downloads additional portions of the object into the first sliding window. Upon a second file request from the application, the virtual file system module allocates a second sliding window and increases the size of the first sliding window when the application requests access to the additional portions of the object that were prospectively downloaded into the first sliding window. The size of the second sliding window is decreased when a further application request for additional portions of the object hasn't been received within a time period.

Abstract: Developers receive automatically designated property change events which caused invalidation of a rendered frame. Some embodiments control display invalidation in part by identifying higher-level frame bounding events in an execution trace, and applying at least one display invalidation constituency filter to lower-level thread events within a frame creation period, thereby obtaining a display invalidation constituency sequence of one or more display invalidation events. The sequence may include a layout property change event and/or a render property change event which invalidated the frame. An initial part of the sequence is designated as a display frame creation cause. Displayed frame invalidation is controlled by altering the display invalidation constituency, e.g., by manual or automated layout/render property change event elimination or event sequence location change, by a reduction in computational resource usage (e.g.

Abstract: Real-time managing multiple display windows on a screen for multiple users each allowed to request reserving an area on the screen and each having a priority value indicating a level of right to use the screen is considered. In a method, the screen is partitioned into grid-area units. Upon receiving a request from a requesting user, determine a target window formed by one or more of these units to cover the area to be reserved. Whether the requesting user is permitted to use the target window is then determined. If permitted, the target window is allocated to the requesting user as a new window. If the target window overlaps any already-allocated display window, the already-allocated window is adjusted (resized/removed) to not overlap the target window. All the allocated windows are then tiled one by one in an order according to the users' priority values for maximizing the screen's usage percentage.
