摘要： Profile data can be ascribed to groups as a function of an organizational scheme that defines groups and relationships between groups. The groups can be abstractions over profile data that are meaningful for computer program analysis. Subsequently, grouped data can be disseminated, queried, and visualized in numerous ways to further aid program analysis.

摘要： In order to provide a more efficient persistent storage device, one or more long-term storage media are included along with a non-volatile memory. In one embodiment, one portion of the non-volatile memory is used as a write buffer and a read cache for writes and reads to the long-term storage media. Interfaces are provided for controlling the use of the non-volatile memory as a write buffer and a read cache. Additionally, a portion of the non-volatile memory is used to provide a direct mapping for specified sectors of the long-term storage media. Descriptive data regarding the persistent storage device is stored in another portion of the non-volatile memory.

摘要： In one or more embodiments, a framework is provided in which image decoding can be delayed based on heuristics, and later initiated based on a use type associated with the image or the likelihood that the image is going to be used. For example, a use history and priority system can enable images that are currently being rendered and/or are likely to get rendered to be decoded before images that have a history of being downloaded but never used. Accordingly, by decoupling image download from image decoding, CPU resources and memory can be more efficiently utilized.

摘要翻译： 在一个或多个实施例中，提供了一种框架，其中可以基于启发式来延迟图像解码，并且随后基于与图像相关联的使用类型或图像将被使用的可能性来启动图像解码。 例如，使用历史和优先权系统可以使具有正在被下载但从未使用的历史的图像之前的当前被渲染和/或可能被渲染的图像被解码。 因此，通过从图像解码中去除图像下载，可以更有效地利用CPU资源和存储器。

摘要： Multiple copy sets of data are maintained on one or more storage devices. Each copy set includes at least some of the same data units as other sets. Different sets optionally have data units stored in different orders on the storage device(s). A particular one of the sets of data is selected as the set to be accessed in response to detecting a particular scenario.

摘要： A delay of starting up of certain applications may result in improving the overall performance of a system. The applications to be delayed may be placed in a container object or box such that they can be tracked and that other applications dependent on the delayed applications can be appropriately handled.

摘要： A method and apparatus to decrease the boot time and the hibernate awaken time of a computer system is presented. Static and dynamic configuration data is stored in flash memory. The size of flash memory is selected so that the initialization time of the configuration data stored in the flash memory is approximately equal to the spin-up time of the disk drive where the operating system is stored. During power down or entry into a hibernate mode, the computer system determines the static and dynamic configuration data to be stored in flash memory based on a history of prior uses. Data is also stored in the flash memory during system operation to reduce the number of times the disk drive is spun up. When the computer system is powered up or awakened from hibernation, the configuration data in flash memory is initialized while the disk drive is spinning up.

摘要翻译： 提出了减少计算机系统的引导时间和休眠唤醒时间的方法和装置。 静态和动态配置数据存储在闪存中。 选择闪存的大小，使得存储在闪存中的配置数据的初始化时间大约等于存储操作系统的磁盘驱动器的启动时间。 在断电或进入休眠模式期间，计算机系统基于先前使用的历史来确定要存储在闪存中的静态和动态配置数据。 在系统操作期间，数据也存储在闪存中，以减少磁盘驱动器的旋转次数。 当计算机系统从休眠状态通电或唤醒时，闪存中的配置数据在磁盘驱动器旋转时被初始化。

摘要： A method and apparatus to improve the read/write performance of a hard drive is presented. A device having solid state, non-volatile (NV) memory is added in-line to the conventional hard drive and acts as a read/write cache. Data specified by the operating system is stored in the NV memory. The operating system provides a list of data to be put in NV memory. The data includes data to be pinned in NV memory and data that is dynamic. Pinned data persists in NV memory until the operating system commands it to be flushed. Dynamic data can be flushed by the hard drive controller. Data sent by an application for storage is temporarily stored in NV memory in data blocks until the operating system commits it to the disk.
