Many times, users play games to certain places in the game and decide to save the game and resume it later. When users resume the game, they have to wait for it to load, wade through menus to select the saved game, and wait again for the game to resume. The introduced technique directly suspends and resume games that are rendered on a cloud server based on user initiated suspend and resume control commands. As the games are directly suspended and resumed, the users can skip past menu and screen loading. The introduced technique can track game information of multiples users in cloud tokens, and can move these cloud tokens from one memory location to another based on the user initiated suspend and resume control commands.

Disclosed are methods, systems and computer program products for optimizing computer system resource utilization during in-game resource farming. In some non-limiting embodiments or aspects, the present disclosure describes a method for optimizing computer system resource utilization during in-game resource farming, the method including detecting a gameplay state associated with an executing instance of a gaming application and based on the detected gameplay state selecting a gaming application mode from among a plurality of available gaming application modes. In some non-limiting embodiments or aspects, the method may also include implementing the selected gaming application mode for subsequent execution of the gaming application on the computing system.

A system for display for an augmented/virtual reality-based decision-making simulation includes a controller configured to receive input from a user, at least one of an augmented reality or a virtual reality device configured to display a simulated environment, a processor, and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory stores one or more computer-readable instructions, which, when executed by the processor, cause the system to: receive input by the user from the controller, indicating a selected scenario; display, on the at least one of the augmented reality or the virtual reality device, the selected scenario; receive input from the user, from the controller, to interact with the selected scenario; monitor one or more parameters associated with the execution of tasks in the selected scenario using the controller; and evaluate the user based on the monitored one or more parameters.

One or more embodiments of the invention provides a system for supporting the creation of a game script including natural language data representing explanation text in a game and also including control data for controlling the game, the natural language data and the control data being associated in accordance with the content of the game, the system including: a data pre-processing module that converts control data included in created game scripts created in advance into control explanation text in the form of natural language data and creates processed script text including the explanation text and control explanation text corresponding to the explanation text; and a learning module that generates a trained model by causing a pre-trained natural language model to learn the processed script text, the pre-trained natural language model having learned in advance grammatical structures and text-to-text relationships concerning natural language text.
