20080209171 | System and Method For Managing a Register-Based Stack of Operand Tags - A virtual machine in a processing system manages type information for operands. In one embodiment, the virtual machine accomplishes the following results through execution of a single instruction: adding an operand tag to a tag stack, and updating a stack pointer for the tag stack to recognize the addition of the operand tag to the tag stack. The single instruction may be a shift instruction, for example. The tag stack may reside in a tag stack register, and each operand tag may indicate whether a corresponding operand on an operand stack is to be treated as a reference operand or a non-reference operand. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 08-28-2008 |
20100031270 | HEAP MANAGER FOR A MULTITASKING VIRTUAL MACHINE - A multitasking virtual machine is described. The multitasking virtual machine may comprise an execution engine to concurrently execute a plurality of tasks. The multitasking virtual machine may further comprise a heap organization coupled to the execution engine. The heap organization may comprise a system heap to store system data accessible by the plurality of tasks; and a plurality of task heaps. Each of the plurality of task heaps may be assigned to each of the plurality of tasks to store task data accessible by the assigned task. The multitasking virtual machine may further comprise a heap manager to manage the heap organization. The heap manager may comprise a heap size controller to control heap size of the system heap. | 02-04-2010 |
20100050174 | HEAP ORGANIZATION FOR A MULTITASKING VIRTUAL MACHINE - A heap organization for a multitasking virtual machine is described. The heap organization may comprise an execution engine to concurrently execute a plurality of tasks and a plurality of heaps coupled to the execution engine. In some embodiments, the plurality of heaps may comprise a system heap and a task heap separated from the system heap. The system heap may store system data accessible by the plurality of tasks. The task heap may store task data only accessible by one task of the plurality of tasks. | 02-25-2010 |
20130326351 | Video Post-Processing on Platforms without an Interface to Handle the Video Post-Processing Request from a Video Player - In order to use video post-processing capabilities available in some graphics and central processing unit hardware available now and in the future, some platforms like the Android platform need to be adapted. A user may select a video post-processing function using a graphical user interface. The selection is communicated to an operating system that does not enable video post-processing, using an inter procedure communication. | 12-05-2013 |
20140244804 | PROCESSING VIDEO DATA IN A CLOUD - The video processing (VP) tasks may be moved from a client device such as a smart phone, tablet, or a laptop to a cloud processing device provided in a cloud to save conserve power in the client device. In one embodiment, the cloud processing device may process the video data based on the optimized video processing parameters, which may be generated using one or more modified VPPs. The modified VPPs may be provided by the client device based on the size (small, medium, and large, for example) of the screen of the client device. Further, the cloud processing device may support an automatic adaption mode (AAM) in which the cloud processing device may process the video data based on the availability of the network bandwidth value provided by the client device. | 08-28-2014 |
20140330957 | WIDI CLOUD MODE - A method and system is provided for WiDi cloud mode. The method includes sending a command from a computing device to a cloud network. A connection between the cloud network and a remote adapter based on the command may be monitored. A data stream sent from the cloud network to the remote adapter via the connection may be controlled. | 11-06-2014 |
20150043653 | TECHNIQUES FOR LOW POWER VIDEO COMPRESSION AND TRANSMISSION - Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for reducing the consumption of electric power in compressing and transmitting video to a display device by analyzing a degree of difference between adjacent frames and dynamically selecting a type of compression per frame depending on the degree of difference. A device to compress video frames includes a processor component, and a compression selector for execution by the processor component to dynamically select a type of compression for a current frame of a series of frames based on a degree of difference between the current frame and a preceding adjacent frame of the series of frames. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 02-12-2015 |
20150312574 | TECHNIQUES FOR LOW POWER IMAGE COMPRESSION AND DISPLAY - Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for reducing the consumption of electric power in rendering an image onto a display associated with a computing device by generating and compressing difference frames for use in rendering the image. A device to compress video frames includes a processor component; and a frame buffer compressor for execution by the processor component to compress a current frame of a series of frames as a compressed difference frame, the compressed difference frame comprising a difference frame that indicates a difference in pixel color of at least one pixel between the current frame and a preceding adjacent frame of the series of frames. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 10-29-2015 |
