Abstract

L'invention porte sur une solution de rendu côté serveur qui consiste, au niveau d'un serveur configuré pour stocker des images vidéo représentant des états d'utilisateurs dans une application informatique, à identifier de futures actions d'utilisateur sur la base au moins en partie d'un état d'un utilisateur dans l'application informatique. La solution consiste également, en réponse à l'identification, à rendre des images vidéo en vue d'un envoi à un dispositif utilisateur associé à l'utilisateur. Au niveau du dispositif utilisateur, un état de l'utilisateur dans une application informatique est envoyé au serveur. En réponse à l'envoi, des images vidéo sont stockées, chacune des images vidéo représentant un état futur de l'utilisateur après que l'utilisateur aura effectué une action future. En réponse à une action de l'utilisateur, l'une des images vidéo est sélectionnée pour être affichée sur un dispositif d'affichage de l'utilisateur du dispositif utilisateur. Selon un aspect, les futures actions d'utilisateur identifiées par le serveur sont limitées à moins d'un nombre possible d'actions d'utilisateur pour des utilisateurs ayant l'état.
