DYNAMIC STREAMING CONTENT PROVIDED BY A CLIENT-SIDE APPLICATION

摘要

A system can stream content items and ad items to a user interface of a client-side application (such as a web browser) without refreshing the user interface and by requesting such items from a local cache and/or a remote cache associated with the client-side application or the user interface. The remote cache can operate much like a local cache for the client-side application or the user interface. Items can be streamed to a user interface without refreshing the user interface and by requesting such items from a remote cache dedicated to caching the items that can be presented by the user interface. Because the tracking of such items and the tracking of the interactions with such items creates such large amounts of data, communicating the tracked data may be impracticable without use of a system that can effectively compress associated instrumentation data.

主权项

1. A system stored in a non-transitory medium executable by a processor, comprising:
a user interface device configured to: run on a thread of a client-side application; output data representative of a section of a page view to a display device, resulting in a first display of the section on the display device, the first display including first viewable content items of a set of content items, the set of content items also including hidden content items; receive user interaction data associated with scrolling through the set of content items; change one or more of the hidden content items to one or more respective viewable content items according to the received user interaction data, resulting in second viewable content items added to the set of content items; and output data representative of the second viewable content items to the display device, resulting in a second display of the section, the second display including at least one of the second viewable content items; and a queue or a stack communicatively coupled to the user interface device, the queue or the stack configured to store respective data objects representative of the hidden content items until retrieved by the user interface device for the change of one or more of the hidden content items to one or more respective viewable content items.
