The embodiments described herein provide technologies and techniques for using available data (from a variety of data sources) to provide an integrated and virtual reality experience. Embodiments described herein include systems and methods for acquiring flight information, wherein the flight information includes at least one of seating information regarding layout and availability of seats from one or more data sources, providing the flight information in a virtual reality environment, receiving, from a virtual reality device, a user's movements of an avatar in the virtual reality environment, wherein the avatar represents an individual having pre-stored information, determining, in the virtual reality environment, a position of the avatar with respect to a first seat zone surrounding a first available seat, and assigning the avatar to the first available seat in response to the virtual reality computing system receiving a deliver command when the avatar is in vicinity of the first seat zone surrounding the first available seat.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for intelligently managing a playlist of digital media provide an intelligent dynamic queue that is configured to manage the playback of digital media. The queue can transition between passive playback mode, active playback mode, and mixed playback mode. The queue can handle the playback of the songs in the queue according to the playback mode and/or a queue status field that is associated with each song in the queue.

A system and method for performing image scrolling are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system for image scrolling organizes each set of related images as a series object. The system writes selected images from one of the series objects, from the image cache to the frame buffer, for image scrolling on a display. A garbage collection module performs garbage collection in the image cache. The garbage collection module operates on memory space where a series object is released or can be moved, for reclaiming memory. The image scrolling is smoother than if the garbage collection module were to track and operate on each image as an object.

One or more embodiments of the disclosure provide systems and methods for providing media presentations to users of a media presentation system. A media presentation generally includes a plurality of media segments provided by multiple users of the media presentation system. In one or more embodiments, a user of the media presentation system may share a media presentation with a co-user. The media presentation system can provide a number of features to assist a user in sharing, filtering, and accessing media presentations.

Apparatuses and methods are provided to generate customizable databases and/or analyze performance. In an example embodiment, a method of generating customizable databases is provided. The method includes receiving a calculation expression relating to one or more defined characteristics. The calculation expression may be defined by a user. The method also includes loading data into a data warehouse. The data includes at least one of the one or more defined characteristics. The method further includes generating a data cube based on the received calculation expression and the data loaded into the data warehouse. The data cube includes an accessible table. A corresponding apparatus is provided. Additional method and apparatus to analyze performance are also provided.

This application provides a method for processing data associated with a virtual scene. The method includes: receiving a save request for progress data of the virtual scene; the save request being generated in a process in which a target user performs a virtual scene operation on the virtual scene, and being used for requesting to save progress data corresponding to current operation progress of the virtual scene operation; generating, based on the save request, an archive file used for indicating the operation progress of the virtual scene operation; generating and storing, based on the archive file, a data snapshot of the progress data corresponding to the operation progress; and returning the data snapshot in a case of receiving an acquiring request for the progress data of the operation progress, so as to present, based on the data snapshot, a picture of the virtual scene corresponding to the operation progress.
