  • Patent number: 11902360
    Abstract: Method of dynamically assigning storage locations starts with the processor updating first user's home location data. Processor selects communication session between first user and second user and determines second user's home location data. Processor determines a session location data that indicates current storage location that stores data of communication session received from first and second client devices. Processor identifies available data storage locations based on first user and second user's home location data and determines whether to update the session location data based on an average of a distance over network fiber using the first user and second user's home locations, current storage location, and available storage locations. In response to determining to update the session location data, processor updates session location data to indicate one of the available storage locations, and causes transfer of data of communication session to one of the available storage locations.

  • Patent number: 11902564
    Abstract: A method of subblock-based temporal motion vector prediction is performed at a computing device. The computing device acquires a video bitstream including data associated with multiple encoded pictures. While decoding a current picture in the video bitstream, the computing device selects, according to syntax elements signaled in the video bitstream, one reference picture as a collocated picture of the current picture, and determines a temporal vector between the collocated picture and the current picture from motion information of spatially neighboring blocks of a current code unit (CU) according to a fixed order. Next, the computing device splits the current CU into multiple sub-CUs, obtains a temporal motion vector predictor for each sub-CU from the temporal vector and motion information of a block in the collocated picture that corresponds to a respective subblock of the current picture and decodes the current CU according to the temporal motion vector predictors.
