An example of an apparatus including a touchscreen device to receive input and selectively transmit the input. The apparatus further includes a rendering engine to render output to a region of the touchscreen device. The output corresponds to boundaries of the region of the touchscreen device, wherein the touchscreen device uses the boundaries and a location of the input to determine whether to transmit the input. The apparatus also includes a processor to receive the input transmitted from the touchscreen device.

Touchscreen devices to transmit input selectively

In some examples, during execution of an application as an application asset is called, an asset map that is stored in a persistent memory device is searched for an asset identifier associated with the application asset. Using this asset identifier, an application asset stored in the persistent memory device is located. The persistent memory device is directly accessed by a processor executing the application. The processor processes the application asset from its location in the persistent memory device.

Asset processing from persistent memory

Examples disclosed herein relate to acquisition of a device fingerprint from an instance of a client application. Examples include association of a target device fingerprint, based on device context information, with a target user account in a remote service, and acquisition of an application device fingerprint from an unpaired instance of a client application.

In example implementations, a method for starting a companion application on a mobile endpoint device and an apparatus for performing the same is provided. The method is performed by a processor of the mobile endpoint device. The method includes detecting that a distance between the mobile endpoint device and a main computer is less than a target distance. The distance is based on a signal strength of a wireless communication signal between the mobile endpoint device and the main computer. An application that is being executed on the main computer is detected. A companion application is started on the mobile endpoint device that is associated with the application.

Applications start based on target distances

A non-volatile main memory stores state information of at least one program executing in the system, and metadata indicating whether a system is to be resumed to a prior state on a next start. As part of restarting the system from a mode in which power is removed from the system, the system is resumed to the prior state using the state information stored in the non-volatile main memory, in response to the metadata indicating that the system is to be resumed to the prior state.

Resuming a system using state information

In one example, a computer having a processor and a byte-addressable non-volatile read-write main memory. The memory is partitioned into plural regions, each region having at least one defined operational property. At least one of the regions is a metadata region to store plural data sets. Each data set specifies a location in memory, and the at least one operational property, of a corresponding one of the regions.

Techniques for selecting an interaction scenario based on an object are described in various implementations. A method that implements the techniques may include receiving, at a computer system and from an image capture device, an image that depicts a viewing area proximate to a presentation device. The method may also include processing the image, using the computer system, to detect a user in the viewing area presenting an object in a manner that indicates desired interaction with the presentation device. The method may also include selecting, using the computer system, an interaction scenario for presentation on the presentation device based on the object.
