A system and method for optimizing processing of keyboard/video/mouse (KVM) data in an internet protocol (IP) network environment receives via public interface access requests from users directed to KVM targets. The system includes a public and private virtual local area network (VLAN) linked by a bonded interface and general-purpose and optimized application containers. The general-purpose container initiates a KVM session and creates a network address translation (NAT) route (associated with an IP address visible to the user) and a dedicated interface via which the user may send KVM data directly and through the optimized application container, which prioritizes KVM data so it can pass without preemption through the private VLAN and to its intended KVM target in real-time or near real-time. The NAT route and external IP address may be reused for multiple access sessions to different KVM targets from the same user.

A method, system, and computer program product for encoding a key touch on a device. The method may include detecting a key touch at one of two of more subareas of a key area and encoding the detected key touch into one code of a plurality of codes. Each code may be associated with one key area and one subarea of the key area. The method may perform an operation to determine whether to authorize access to a resource by determining whether the code, at least in part, authorizes the access. The key area may be marked with an indicia. The two or more subareas of the key area may be unmarked and may be of equal size. The key area may be divided into the two or more subareas by specifying two or more subregions of sensor pixels of a region of sensor pixels of a touch-sensitive screen.

A game controller includes a touchpad that a user, viewing a virtual keyboard on a screen, can soft-touch to move a cursor on the screen and then hard-touch to move the cursor and also send location data to a processor for inputting a letter from the virtual keyboard. Machine learning is used to predict a next letter or next word.

An apparatus comprises a switch and nodes coupled to the switch. Each node does not include an integrated video controller and transmits data to the switch via a USB and a serial connection. The switch comprises a controller which stores video output generated based on data received via serial connections. The controller: receives a user selection for a first node; transmits the user selection to a first multiplexer; retrieves a first video output generated based on data received via the corresponding serial connection; and transmits the first video output to a second multiplexer. The first multiplexer transmits USB data received from the first node to the second multiplexer. If the first node is in a pre-boot environment, the second multiplexer selects the first video output for transmission. If the first node is in a post-boot environment, the second multiplexer selects the data received from the first node for transmission.

A method by a network device for dynamically detecting emotional states of a user operating a client end station to interact with an application. The method includes receiving information regarding user inputs received by the client end station from the user while the user interacted with the application during a particular time period and determining an emotional state of the user based on analyzing the information and information regarding user inputs received by the client end station from the user while the user interacted with the application during one or more previous time periods that together with the particular time period form a time window.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for evaluating interactions with a user interface of an application are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes, for each of a plurality of different user sessions of a native application, accessing frame bundles that each include data representing content presented by a frame of a user interface of the native application at a given time. Each frame bundle includes at least a portion of a view tree of the native application used to generate the user interface at the given time and data specifying content presented by each view of the portion of the view tree. Based on the frame bundles, playback data are generated that present visual changes of the user interface corresponding to changes to the view trees.

A push button-equipped touch panel includes a touch panel, a cover panel and a push button part. The cover panel is disposed on an operation surface side of the touch panel and has a through hole. The push button part is disposed in the through hole of the cover panel.
