    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method includes instantiating a memory management process that is configured to communicate with graphics processing hardware components to control usage of shared memory by multiple different application instances. The memory management process also receives a request from an application instance indicating that content associated with a specific resource implemented by the application instance is to be stored in the shared memory, determines that the content identified in the request has been previously stored at a specified location in the shared memory, identifies a time span during which the identified content stored in the shared memory will be immutable, and instructs the requesting application instance to access the identified content from the specified location in shared memory during the identified time span. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented methods and systems optimize a rendering pipeline for rendering tasks associated with streamed video games. For example, the disclosed methods and systems amortize the fixed costs of these rendering tasks across multiple video game frames by combining a batch of frames into a single combined image. The disclosed systems and methods then perform rendering tasks such as frame generation and upscaling in connection with the single combined image. The disclosed system and methods further separate the combined image into its component frames prior to encoding and streaming those frames to one or more streaming clients. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
