Further, the memory 120 may include high speed random access memory, and may also include non-volatile memory, such as at least one magnetic disk storage device, flash memory device, or other volatile solid state storage device.

The input unit 130 may be used to receive numeric or character information input by a user and generate key signal inputs related to user settings and function control of the cellular phone 100. Specifically, the input unit 130 may include a touch screen 131 and other input devices 132.

In order to solve the foregoing problem, an embodiment of the present application provides a data buffering method applied to a terminal, and specifically, the embodiment of the present application takes a mobile phone as an example for description.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a diagram illustrating an embodiment of a data buffering method applied to a terminal according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

201. And acquiring the network speed in a preset time period.

In this embodiment, the mobile phone may monitor the network status in real time and obtain the network speed within the preset time period. It can be understood that the network monitoring is a background service, an Application Programming Interface (API) responsible for providing network monitoring may be provided in the system of the mobile phone to provide a traffic statistics function, and the current network speed may be obtained by calculating a ratio of traffic within a preset time period to a preset duration.

Specifically, the implementation code for acquiring the traffic may be as follows:

202. and responding to preset operation acted on the terminal, and starting an advance buffering mode.

In this embodiment, the mobile phone may detect a preset operation acting on the screen, the key, or the fingerprint identifier in real time, and then start the advance buffering mode in response to the preset operation. Specifically, a mode switch is provided for a user in a setting item of the mobile phone, and the user can select whether to turn on the advanced buffering mode according to needs, that is, if the mobile phone detects that the user performs a preset operation of turning on the mode switch, the mobile phone turns on the advanced buffering mode.

It should be noted that the preset operation may further include an operation of shaking the mobile phone, an operation of continuously clicking a screen of the mobile phone, an operation of long-pressing the screen of the mobile phone, and the like, and various possible implementation manners of the preset operations are further described below with reference to an actual application scenario.

Optionally, the preset operation is an operation of shaking the mobile phone, that is, the user holds the mobile phone by hand and shakes the mobile phone, for example, the mobile phone detects shaking of the mobile phone by the sensing device, and then triggers to start the advance buffering mode, or the mobile phone detects shaking of the mobile phone by the sensing device, and then pops up an option frame for prompting the user whether to open the advance buffering mode, and if the user selects to open the advance buffering mode, the mobile phone can be triggered to start the advance buffering mode.

Optionally, the preset operation is an operation of continuously clicking a screen of the mobile phone, for example, the mobile phone detects that the user continuously taps the screen 3 times in a black screen or bright screen state, and then triggers to start the advanced buffer mode, or the mobile phone detects that the user continuously taps the screen 3 times in the black screen or bright screen state, and then pops up an option box for prompting the user whether to open the advanced buffer mode, and if the user selects to open the advanced buffer mode, the mobile phone may be triggered to start the advanced buffer mode.

Optionally, the preset operation is an operation of pressing a screen of the mobile phone for a long time, for example, the mobile phone detects that a user presses the screen of the mobile phone for a long time in a black screen state or a bright screen state, and then triggers to start the advanced buffering mode, or the mobile phone detects that the user presses the screen of the mobile phone for a long time in a black screen state or a bright screen state, and then pops up an option box for prompting the user whether to start the advanced buffering mode, and if the user selects to start the advanced buffering mode, the mobile phone can be triggered to start the advanced buffering mode.

It should be noted that the above listed interaction operations between the user and the mobile phone may support various scenes such as floating touch, a black screen gesture, and a bright screen gesture, and in addition, the preset operations in practical applications include, but are not limited to, the above listed various implementation manners.

203. And if the network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold value, buffering unloaded data related to the application programs in the buffer list.

In this embodiment, the mobile phone sets a threshold of the network speed in advance, and if the mobile phone detects that the current network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, and on the premise that the advanced buffering mode is already started, the mobile phone will buffer the unloaded data related to the application program in the buffer list. Specifically, when the mobile phone detects that the current network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold value, whether the advanced buffer mode is started or not is further judged, and only when the conditions that the network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold value and the advanced buffer mode is started are met, the mobile phone starts to buffer data.

It should be noted that the buffering data in this embodiment refers to a process of downloading data that has not been loaded by the mobile phone from the server onto the local memory or the local disk. Specifically, the mobile phone may send a buffering command or broadcast to the application program in the buffer list, and the application program may determine whether the application program is in the running state after receiving the buffering command or broadcast, and execute the corresponding buffering task if the application program is in the running state.

It is understood that the preset threshold value related to the wire speed can be defined by the user, and the specific value of the preset threshold value is not limited herein.

It should be noted that, in addition to the currently running application, the application in the buffer list may also be added and/or deleted by the user according to the needs of the user, specifically, the mobile phone may provide a setting item for the buffer list for the user, and the user may customize the application in the buffer list, for example, although the user opens the browser and the music player, the user currently uses the traffic data and does not want to consume too much traffic, and the user may remove the application of the music player in the buffer list, and then the mobile phone removes the corresponding application in the buffer list in response to an edit instruction input by the user.

It should be noted that, in addition to being implemented by the entire system service of the mobile phone as described above, the data buffering method in this embodiment may also implement the data buffering function in the application program alone. For example, a network monitoring service and a cache type switch are arranged in the browser, so that the function of advanced caching can be realized in the browser.

Optionally, if the mobile phone detects that the current network speed is less than the preset threshold and the advance buffering mode is not currently started, the mobile phone displays a target prompt for prompting the user whether to start the advance buffering mode. Specifically, when the mobile phone detects that the network speed is lower than the preset threshold, it is further determined whether the advanced buffering mode is started, and if not, the mobile phone may display a prompt box to prompt the user to select to start the advanced buffering mode.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment, there is no fixed timing relationship between step 201 and step 202, and step 201 may be executed first, or step 202 may be executed first, or both step 201 and step 202 are executed, which is not limited herein. For example, the user has actively started the advance buffering mode in advance, and then the mobile phone monitors and detects that the network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold value through the network, and the mobile phone can start to buffer data. Or the advanced buffer mode is not started, when the mobile phone detects that the network speed is less than the preset threshold value through network monitoring, the mobile phone prompts a user to select to start the advanced buffer mode, and the data starts to be buffered after the advanced buffer mode is started.

In the embodiment of the application, the terminal acquires the network speed in the preset time period and detects the preset operation acted on the terminal, then the terminal responds to the preset operation and starts the advanced buffering mode, and if the terminal judges that the network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, the terminal buffers unloaded data related to the application program in the buffering list. Through the mode, the terminal can carry out network monitoring, on the premise that the terminal starts the advanced buffering mode according to the operation of a user, if the network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold value, the current network condition is better, the terminal can buffer the unloaded data of the application program in advance, and therefore when the terminal is in the environment with the poorer network speed, the data buffered in advance can be used, the situation that the internet is jammed is effectively avoided, and the user experience is improved. In addition, if the network speed is less than the preset threshold value, which indicates that the current network is unstable, the terminal may prompt the user to select to start a forward buffer mode to deal with the possible situation of internet jamming in advance, thereby further improving the user experience.

The following further describes a complete flow of the data buffering method applied to the terminal in the embodiment of the present application:

referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a diagram illustrating another embodiment of a data buffering method applied to a terminal according to an embodiment of the present application.

301. The network status is monitored.

In this embodiment, the mobile phone may monitor the network state in real time and test the current network speed, where a specific implementation manner of obtaining the current network speed by the mobile phone is similar to step 201 in the embodiment shown in fig. 2, and details are not repeated here.

302. And judging whether the network speed is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value.

After the mobile phone obtains the current network speed, whether the network speed is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value is further judged. The embodiment introduces the judgment of the current network speed, and executes subsequent operations based on the judgment result so as to realize that resources are buffered as much as possible when the network condition is good.

303. It is determined whether the early buffer mode is enabled, if not, go to step 304, and if so, go to step 306.

In this embodiment, after the mobile phone finishes determining the current network speed, whether the current network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, the mobile phone further determines whether the advanced buffering mode is started, where an operation of triggering the mobile phone to start the advanced buffering mode is similar to step 202 in the embodiment shown in fig. 2, and is not described here again.

304. And displaying the target prompt.

In this embodiment, if the current network speed is less than the preset threshold and the advanced buffering mode is not started yet, the mobile phone displays a target prompt for prompting the user whether to start the advanced buffering mode. Specifically, when the mobile phone detects that the network speed is lower than the preset threshold, it is further determined whether the advanced buffering mode is started, and if not, the mobile phone may display a prompt box to prompt the user to select to start the advanced buffering mode.

305. The settings are updated according to the user's selection.

In this embodiment, after the target prompt is displayed, the mobile phone further updates the setting according to the selection of the user based on the target prompt, that is, if the user selects to open the advanced buffering mode, the mobile phone executes a corresponding instruction to open the advanced buffering mode, and if the user does not select to open the advanced buffering mode, the mobile phone maintains the current state.

306. The unloaded data associated with the applications in the buffer list is buffered.

In this embodiment, if the current network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold and the advanced buffering mode is already started, the mobile phone will buffer the unloaded data related to the application program in the buffering list. The implementation of the buffered data is similar to the related description of step 203 in the embodiment shown in fig. 2, and is not described here again.

It should be noted that the buffering tasks are also distinguished according to different application types, for example, for an application program of a browser type, first obtain a loading content of a current page, if the current web page content is not loaded yet, start to load a remaining content (for example, a part of content that is not displayed yet in a downward page turning process), and obtain a hyperlink in the current web page, and perform a pre-loading according to a web page content pointed by the hyperlink, specifically, an address pointed by the hyperlink in the web page may be obtained by using a regular expression matching the hyperlink and a Uniform Resource Locator (URL), and then a web page request may be sent to the corresponding address, so as to determine whether to continue to parse the hyperlink of the newly obtained web page in a customized manner. For an application program of an audio/video player, resources that have not been played in the playlist may be buffered, if there are more audio/video resources that are currently played, only the current resources may be buffered, and if there are fewer audio/video resources that are currently played, other resources in the playlist may also be buffered, which is not limited herein.

The data buffering method in the embodiment of the present application is further described below with reference to a specific application scenario:

for example, when a user is sitting on a train to listen to songs on line, because the train needs to frequently enter and exit a tunnel, network signals are unstable, and the mobile phone detects that the current network speed is lower than a preset threshold value after the train enters the tunnel, the mobile phone prompts the user whether to select to start the early buffering mode or not, if the user selects to start, the mobile phone responds to a trigger instruction of a user to start a pre-buffering mode, then the network returns to normal after the train runs out of the tunnel, the mobile phone detects that the current network speed is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, based on the pre-buffering mode, the mobile phone pre-buffers songs which are not played in a song play list, after the current song is played, the train can enter the tunnel again, and at the moment, because the mobile phone has buffered the next song in advance, even if the current network condition is poor, the user can still listen to songs on line normally, and the use experience of the user is guaranteed.

The above describes the data buffering method applied to the terminal in the embodiment of the present application, and the following describes the terminal in the embodiment of the present application:

referring to fig. 4, an embodiment of a terminal in the embodiment of the present application includes:

a network monitoring unit 401, configured to obtain a network speed in a preset time period;

a mode switching unit 402 for turning on an advance buffering mode in response to a preset operation acting on the terminal;

Optionally, the buffer management unit 403 is further configured to:

Optionally, the buffer list includes an application program in operation on the terminal, and the buffer management unit 403 is further configured to:

Optionally, the network monitoring unit is specifically configured to:

acquiring flow in a preset time period;

Optionally, the preset operation includes at least one of an operation of shaking the terminal, an operation of continuously clicking the terminal screen, or an operation of long-pressing the terminal screen.

In this embodiment, the network monitoring unit 401 obtains the network speed in the preset time period and detects the preset operation acting on the terminal, and then the mode switch unit 402 responds to the preset operation to start the advanced buffering mode, and if the network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, the buffer management unit 403 buffers the unloaded data related to the application program in the buffer list. By the method, the terminal can perform network monitoring, on the premise that the terminal starts the advanced buffering mode according to the operation of the user, if the network speed is greater than or equal to the preset threshold value, the current network condition is better, the terminal can buffer the unloaded data of the application program in advance, so that when the terminal is in an environment with poorer network speed, the data buffered in advance can be used, the situation of network blockage is effectively avoided, and the user experience is improved. In addition, if the network speed is less than the preset threshold value, which indicates that the current network is unstable, the terminal may prompt the user to select to start a forward buffer mode to deal with the possible situation of internet jamming in advance, thereby further improving the user experience.
