METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CLOUD GAMING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240017168 titled 'METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CLOUD GAMING

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes systems and methods for managing virtual machines in a cloud computing system. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The system receives a request from a user device to set up a game play session.
  • In response to the request, the system retrieves a user settings profile, which includes a service level agreement for the session setup.
  • Based on the service level agreement, the system sends a hardware request to a virtual machine manager.
  • The virtual machine manager initializes a virtual machine based on the hardware request.
  • A peer-to-peer real-time communication connection is established between the user device and the virtual machine.
  • During the game play session, an updated service level agreement is received, and a second hardware request is sent to the virtual machine manager based on the updated agreement.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Cloud gaming platforms
  • Virtual reality gaming systems
  • Remote game streaming services

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient management of virtual machines for game play sessions
  • Dynamic adjustment of hardware resources based on service level agreements
  • Real-time communication between user devices and virtual machines

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved gaming experience with optimized hardware resources
  • Flexibility in adjusting hardware resources based on user requirements
  • Seamless real-time communication between users and virtual machines


Original Abstract Submitted

systems and methods for virtual machine management in a cloud computing system. the systems and methods comprise receiving a game play session setup request from a user device, retrieving, in response to the session setup request, a user settings profile. the user settings profile comprises a service level agreement for session setup. a first hardware request is sent to a virtual machine manager. the first hardware request is based on the service level agreement for session setup. the virtual machine manager initializes a first virtual machine based on first hardware request. a peer-to-peer real-time communication connection is created between the user device and first virtual machine. during the game play session, an updated service level agreement is received and a second hardware request is sent to the virtual machine manager, wherein the second hardware request is based on updated service level agreement.
