Disclosed embodiments are directed at systems, methods, and architecture for operating a control plan of a microservices application. The control plane corresponds with data plane proxies associated with each of a plurality of APIs that make up the microservices application. The communication between the data plane proxies and the control plane enables automatic detection of service groups of APIs and automatic repair of application performance in real-time in response to degrading service node conditions.

A user interface is provided next to a textbox in a cross-platform mobile application to access one or more native features of a mobile device. Once the user interface is selected by a user, the mobile application operates to access one or more associated native feature of the mobile device and retrieve data to automatically populate it on the textbox in the mobile application.

A mobile device includes a communication unit configured to communicate with an image forming apparatus; a display configured to display a screen; a memory configured to store a printing list; and a controller configured to search for an adjacent image forming apparatus through the communication unit, check whether there is content to be printed in the printing list stored in the memory, and control the display to display notification information on the screen based on a result of the checking.

Instruction cache behavior and branch prediction are used to improve the functionality of a computing device by profiling branching instructions in an instruction cache to identify likelihoods of proceeding to a plurality of targets from the branching instructions; identifying a hot path in the instruction cache based on the identified likelihoods; and rearranging the plurality of targets relative to one another and associated branching instructions so that a first branching instruction that has a higher likelihood of proceeding to a first hot target than to a first cold target and that previously flowed to the first cold target and jumped to the first hot target instead flows to the first hot target and jumps to the first cold target.

The present invention is an information processing device in which a printer driver for causing an image forming device to perform processing according to items is installed, and which is provided with an editable tab on a settings screen of the printer driver such that the items can be selected by a user. The information processing device includes a controller that, in a state where information about the editable tab has been registered in the image forming device by an administrator, and an acquisition request for information about the registered editable tab has been made from the printer driver to the image forming device, causes information about the registered editable tab to be transmitted to the information processing device, and causes the transmitted information to be reflected in the editable tab of the printer driver.

There is provided an information processing apparatus including a display control unit that displays a list screen of thumbnails associated with content, an execution unit that executes any application using the content associated with the thumbnails, and an image generation unit that generates an execution state image showing an execution state of the application by the execution unit, wherein the display control unit displays the execution state image generated by the image generation unit in at least a portion of an area where the list screen is displayed.

Systems and methods for scheduling instructions using pre-decode data corresponding to each instruction. In one embodiment, a multi-core processor includes a scheduling unit in each core for selecting instructions from two or more threads each scheduling cycle for execution on that particular core. As threads are scheduled for execution on the core, instructions from the threads are fetched into a buffer without being decoded. The pre-decode data is determined by a compiler and is extracted by the scheduling unit during runtime and used to control selection of threads for execution. The pre-decode data may specify a number of scheduling cycles to wait before scheduling the instruction. The pre-decode data may also specify a scheduling priority for the instruction. Once the scheduling unit selects an instruction to issue for execution, a decode unit fully decodes the instruction.

A three-dimensional (3D) lighting processing device and method that apply a partial 3D lighting effect to a two-dimensional (2D) image is provided. The 3D lighting processing device includes a first information providing unit that provides a first image including normal direction information for a shade effect and a second image including color information, a second information providing unit that provides a third image including lighting area information, and a shader unit that detects, from the first image, an area corresponding to the lighting area information of the third image as a lighting application area, and performs rendering by applying the detected lighting application area to a 2D Graphic User Interface (GUI).

A corrugated display sign with a main body having an inner surface and an outer surface, with the body including a first portion and a second portion. The sign further includes at least one or more formers, and in some embodiments two or more formers, secured to the first portion of the inner surface of the main body, with the formers each including a tab section that secures the former to the main body, a front body portion with a wing portion, and a back body portion with a wing portion. Further, the second portion of the main body is folded around the first portion and the formers, so as to create an elongated elliptical shape for the sign. The display sign is capable of being erected from a knockdown configuration to an erected configuration by folding the former body portions and the wing, and folding the second portion of the main body around the first portion and the formers.

A measuring instrument includes a main body casing, a detector on the main body casing and detecting an amount of stylus head displacement, a display on an outer surface of the casing; a plurality of key switches on the outer surface, a menu proximate the display on the outer surface, and a display controller controlling the display. The display includes a main display and a cursor display, which is arranged in a location alongside the menu and displays a cursor pointing to the menu, and performs control such that a measured value based on an amount of displacement is displayed, but the cursor is not displayed when in a measurement mode where the detector detects the amount of displacement, and such that a cursor is displayed so as to point to the menu corresponding to a selected menu when in a settings mode where measurement conditions are set.
