    Abstract: Technologies are disclosed for providing predictive auto-scaling for resources of a network-accessible message processing service. Control metrics are analyzed in order to predict a future volume of messages that will be received and processed by the message processing service. Based upon the prediction, resources, in the form of computing resources, are allocated to the message processing service. Reactive auto-scaling of the resources can also be used in conjunction with predictive auto-scaling. For reactive auto-scaling, an enqueue rate at a queuing service for messages is monitored and resources are reactively auto-scaled accordingly.

    Abstract: Devices and techniques to incrementally update content associated with an electronic publication are described. A patch generation module may be configured to generate patch data files comprising incremental changes associated with the electronic publication. A differential patch module located on a client device may be configured to obtain the patch data files. The differential patch module may also be configured to compare the patch data files and the electronic publication and identify the differences between the files. Additionally, the differential patch module may be configured to update the changes in the patch data files with the content of the electronic publication. Accordingly, the electronic publication may be updated to include the changes in the patch data files.

    Abstract: A rendering optimizer captures content engagement feedback associated with a first interval during which electronic content is presented with a first set of rendering parameter values. The rendering optimizer adjusts at least one rendering parameter value of the first set of rendering parameter values by a step amount in a first direction to create a second set of rendering parameter values and captures content engagement feedback associated with a second interval during which the electronic content is presented with the second set of rendering parameter values. The rendering optimizer further adjusts the rendering parameter values to determine they result in an improvement in reading immersion.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for dynamic character enhancement for rendering digital content. Example methods may include identifying a reading speed indicative of a rate at which a user desires to read, determining a number of words in a portion of content to present to the user, and determining a base time interval for at least one word of the portion of content based at least in part on the reading speed. Methods may include determining an average difficulty value of the portion of content, determining that a first difficulty value of a first word exceeds the average difficulty value, and determining a first time adjustment for the first word based at least in part on the first difficulty value. Methods may include determining a first time interval based at least in part on the base time interval and the first time adjustment.

    Abstract: Embodiments of methods, systems, and storage medium associated with providing an electronic book for partial consumption are disclosed herein. In one instance, an electronic book, including prominent and non-prominent components, may be stored in memory of an electronic reader. In various embodiments, the electronic reader may monitor for an instruction from a user to transition between a skim mode of operation and a normal mode of operation. In various embodiments, the electronic reader may be placed in the skim mode of operation in response to detecting an instruction from the user to enter the skim mode of operation. While in the skim mode of operation, the prominent components of the electronic book may be filtered from the non-prominent components and presented, and presentation of the non-prominent components of the electronic book may be suppressed. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for emphasizing particular text in reflowable content. Primary text, such as keywords or sentences related to a most recent input, and secondary text, such as row(s) of text including the keywords and/or sentences, are determined. The primary text may be emphasized using a first effect and the secondary text may be emphasized using a second effect, while an opacity of non-emphasized text may be reduced. Content is displayed initially with the first effect, the second effect and the reduced opacity, and an animation sequence removes the first effect and the second effect and increases the opacity in intervals until the content is displayed uniformly. Thus content that is of interest to a reader (such as a previous reading location) may be emphasized when a screen refreshes with reflowed content.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for dynamic kerning pair reduction for digital font rendering. Example methods may include receiving a first font file comprising glyph data and a first set of kerning pairs, determining a first kerning pair of the first set of kerning pairs that comprises a kerning adjustment value below a kerning adjustment threshold, removing the first kerning pair from the first set of kerning pairs to generate a second set of kerning pairs, and generating a second font file comprising the glyph data and the second set of kerning pairs.
