Messaging system with circumstance configuration framework for hardware

Abstract

An example method comprises: receiving, at a server from a first client device, a request for access to a client feature on the first client device; determining, by the server, an applicable rule for the access request, the applicable rule having a plurality of nodes; determining, by the server, device capabilities needed for the determined rule; determining, by the server, nodes that can be executed and nodes that cannot be executed, based on the device capabilities, the nodes that can be executed including device hardware capabilities and the nodes that cannot be executed including real-time device capabilities; executing, by the server nodes that can be executed to reach a partial decision for the applicable rule; pruning the applicable rule to remove executed nodes and generate a pruned rule that includes nodes that cannot be executed; transmitting the pruned rule and partial decision to the first client device.

 receiving, by at least one processor, a request to access a client feature on a first client device;   determining, by the at least one processor, an applicable rule for the access request, the applicable rule having a plurality of nodes;   determining, by the at least one processor, nodes that can be executed, the nodes that can be executed including device hardware capabilities and real-time device capabilities;   executing, by the at least one processor, the nodes that can be executed to reach a decision for the applicable rule;   configuring, by the at least one processor, the requested client feature based on the decision.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising collecting device capabilities from a plurality of other client devices that communicated with the first client device. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the applicable rule determines an image resolution in an augmented reality application for the first client device. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising pruning the determined applicable rule to remove nodes that cannot be executed due to lack of data. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the applicable rule comprises priority nodes and non-priority nodes and the priority nodes are executed before the non-priority nodes. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the applicable rule determines that an image resolution is to be reduced and a priority node includes battery level and a non-priority node includes co-processor availability. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the applicable rule determines model input size in a deep neural network and a node includes co-processor availability. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the deep neural network performs human body segmentation and maintains a frames per second level for the client feature. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the applicable rule determines texture level and maintains a frames per second level for the client feature. 
     
     
         10 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more computer processors, cause one or more of the one or more computer processors to perform operations comprising:
 receiving a request to access a client feature on a first client device;   determining an applicable rule for the access request, the applicable rule having a plurality of nodes;   determining nodes that can be executed, the nodes that can be executed including device hardware capabilities and real-time device capabilities;   executing the nodes that can be executed to reach a decision for the applicable rule;   configuring the requested client feature based on the decision.   
     
     
         11 . A first client device, comprising:
 a memory that stores instructions; and   one or more processors configured by the instructions to perform operations comprising:   receiving a request to access a client feature on a first client device;   determining an applicable rule for the access request, the applicable rule having a plurality of nodes;   determining nodes that can be executed, the nodes that can be executed including device hardware capabilities and real-time device capabilities;   executing nodes that can be executed to reach a decision for the applicable rule;   configuring the requested client feature based on the decision.   
     
     
         12 . The first client device of  claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise collecting device capabilities from the first client device and a plurality of other client devices that communicated with the first client device. 
     
     
         13 . The first client device of  claim 12 , wherein the applicable rule determines an image resolution in an augmented reality application for the first client device. 
     
     
         14 . The first client device of  claim 12 , wherein the operations further comprise pruning the determined applicable rule to remove nodes that cannot be executed due to lack of data. 
     
     
         15 . The first client device of  claim 11 , wherein the applicable rule comprises priority nodes and non-priority nodes and the priority nodes are executed before the non-priority nodes. 
     
     
         16 . The first client device of  claim 15 , wherein the applicable rule determines that an image resolution is to be reduced and a priority node includes battery level and a non-priority node includes co-processor availability.
