具体实施方式
以下，术语“第一”、“第二”仅用于描述目的，而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性或者隐含指明所指示的技术特征的数量。由此，限定有“第一”、“第二”的特征可以明示或者隐含地包括一个或者更多个该特征。在本实施例的描述中，除非另有说明，“多个”的含义是两个或两个以上。
进程化工具(process lasso，简称Pro)，是一款独特的调试进程级别的系统化工具，主要功能是基于其特别的算法动态调整各个进程的优先级以实现系统减负的目。目前应用的抑制方法通常是：电子设备启动Pro。电子设备显示Pro的界面。当用户在电子设备显示的Pro的主菜单界面上选择“启用ProBalance(进程CPU用量平衡)”选项后，电子设备识别占用电脑资源过高的第一应用，并利用Pro调整第一应用的进程优先级，从而减少应用卡顿。但是，电子设备只是根据CPU的利用率找到第一应用，并调整第一应用的进程优先级。若第一应用处于用户不可见状态，则第一应用依然会占用电子设备的资源，依然存在应用卡顿的问题。
为了解决上述技术问题，在本申请实施例中，电子设备监控多个应用窗口。当监控到多个应用窗口中的至少一个应用窗口发生变化时，电子设备遍历多个应用窗口的窗口信息。电子设备根据多个应用窗口的窗口信息和过滤规则，得到多个应用窗口的窗口状态。其中，窗口状态包括不可见状态，符合过滤规则的应用窗口处于不可见状态。电子设备根据多个应用窗口的窗口状态，对至少一个第一应用或者第一进程进行图形处理器(graphics processing unit，GPU)抑制。其中，第一应用对应的所有应用窗口均处于不可见状态，第一进程对应的所有应用窗口均处于不可见状态。这样，一旦应用窗口发生变化，电子设备就会确定出用户不可见状态的应用窗口。当第一应用的所有窗口均处于用户不可见状态时，对第一应用进行GPU抑制，或者，当第一进程的所有窗口均处于用户不可见状态时，对第 一进程进行GPU抑制，可以有效防止该应用或进程占用电子设备的资源，减少资源浪费，进而解决应用卡顿的问题。
在一些实施例中，进一步的，电子设备还可以对所有处于不可见状态的应用窗口进行最小化。这样，所有的应用窗口被最小化，使得电子设备的资源(如图形处理器的资源)消耗会明显减少，到达降低电子设备的资源消耗的目的。或者，可选的，上述对第一应用进行GPU抑制或者对第一进程进行GPU抑制可以被替换为：对第一应用或者对第一进程对应的所有应用窗口都进行最小化，或者，对所有处于不可见状态的应用窗口进行最小化。
在一些实施例中，电子设备对第一应用进行GPU抑制，具体可以为：电子设备抑制第一应用的进程。示例性的，电子设备抑制第一应用的渲染进程。这样，有效减少处于用户可不见状态的应用进行渲染合成运算，减少图形处理器的资源消耗，从而减少资源浪费。
当然，在一些实施例中，电子设备也可以对第一应用对应的硬件单元的资源进行优化处理。示例性的，电子设备对存储器中第一应用的缓存进行清除处理。或者，电子设备指示图形处理器释放第一应用占用的资源。这样，电子设备能够抑制用户不可见应用占用过多资源，减少资源浪费，使得用户可见应用能够获取更多资源，从而减少用户可见应用卡顿。另外，能够有效减少电子设备整机发热，降低噪声。
在一些实施例中，在过滤掉处于不可见状态的窗口之后，电子设备还可以对剩下的窗口进行进一步的过滤，以过滤掉完全被遮挡的窗口。具体可以为：多个应用窗口包括至少一个第一窗口和至少一个第二窗口。其中，第一窗口为基于过滤规则确定的处于不可见状态的窗口，至少一个第二窗口为多个应用窗口中除所有第一窗口以外的窗口。在电子设备对至少一个第一应用或者第一进程进行GPU抑制之前，该方法还可以包括：电子设备根据至少两个第二窗口的窗口信息，得到至少一个第三窗口。其中，第三窗口为被至少两个第二窗口中的至少一个窗口完全遮挡的窗口。电子设备确定第三窗口处于不可见状态。这样，电子设备可以进一步过滤掉至少两个第二窗口中被遮挡的窗口，进一步减少资源浪费。

如图2所示，应用程序包可以包括相机，图库，日历，通话，地图，导航，WLAN，蓝牙，音乐，视频，短信息等应用程序。
应用程序框架层为应用程序层的应用程序提供应用编程接口(application programming interface，API)和编程框架。应用程序框架层包括一些预先定义的函数。
如图2所示，应用程序框架层可以包括窗口管理器，内容提供器，视图系统，电话管理器，资源管理器，通知管理器等。当然，应用程序框架层还可以包括窗口监控装置、过滤装置和抑制装置。
窗口管理器用于管理窗口程序。窗口管理器可以获取显示屏大小，判断是否有状态栏，锁定屏幕，截取屏幕等。
内容提供器用来存放和获取数据，并使这些数据可以被应用程序访问。所述数据可以包括视频，图像，音频，拨打和接听的电话，浏览历史和书签，电话簿等。
视图系统包括可视控件，例如显示文字的控件，显示图片的控件等。视图系统可用于构建应用程序。显示界面可以由一个或多个视图组成的。例如，包括短信通知图标的显示界面，可以包括显示文字的视图以及显示图片的视图。
电话管理器用于提供电子设备100的通信功能。例如通话状态的管理(包括接通，挂断等)。
资源管理器为应用程序提供各种资源，比如本地化字符串，图标，图片，布局文 件，视频文件等等。
通知管理器使应用程序可以在状态栏中显示通知信息，可以用于传达告知类型的消息，可以短暂停留后自动消失，无需用户交互。比如通知管理器被用于告知下载完成，消息提醒等。通知管理器还可以是以图表或者滚动条文本形式出现在系统顶部状态栏的通知，例如后台运行的应用程序的通知，还可以是以对话窗口形式出现在屏幕上的通知。例如在状态栏提示文本信息，发出提示音，电子设备振动，指示灯闪烁等。
窗口监控装置用于监控应用程序的窗口信息，并且，当监控到窗口发生变化时向过滤装置发送通知消息，该通知消息用于通知过滤装置进行窗口过滤。
过滤装置用于根据窗口监控装置发送的通知消息，过滤用户不可见的窗口，并将用户不可见的窗口告知给抑制装置。当然，过滤装置还可以用于将第一应用或第一进程告知给抑制装置，该第一应用的所有窗口为用户不可见的窗口，该第一进程的所有窗口为用户不可见的窗口。其中，用户不可见可以理解为用户肉眼不能看见。
抑制装置用于对第一应用或第一进程进行抑制操作。具体地，抑制装置可以用于对第一应用或第一进程进行GPU抑制。
内核层是硬件和软件之间的层。内核层至少包含显示驱动，摄像头驱动，音频驱动，传感器驱动。
下面结合抑制第一应用场景，示例性说明电子设备100软件以及硬件的工作流程。
①应用架构层的窗口监控装置监控应用程序层的应用窗口。②当窗口监控装置监控到应用窗口发生变化时，窗口监控装置向过滤装置发送用于指示应用窗口发生变化的通知消息。③过滤装置根据该通知消息，过滤用户不可见的窗口，并将该窗口的信息(如标识信息或API)发送给抑制装置。④抑制装置对第一应用(该第一应用的所有窗口为用户不可见的窗口)或第一进程(该第一进程的所有窗口为用户不可见的窗口)进行抑制操作。如，抑制装置调用第一应用的API，并运行API上加载的钩子函数，进而调用内核层抑制启动显示驱动，启动音频驱动，通过音频模块170播放音频。
此外，本申请的各实施例之间涉及的动作，术语等均可以相互参考，不予限制。本申请的实施例中各个设备之间交互的消息名称或消息中的参数名称等只是一个示例，具体实现中也可以采用其他的名称，不予限制。
本申请实施例提供的一种应用程序的抑制方法的执行主体可以为电子设备。在本申请实施例中，以该电子设备安装Windows操作系统为例进行说明。
图3为本申请实施例提供的一种应用程序的抑制方法的流程示意图。如图3所示，该方法可以包括：
S301、电子设备监控多个应用窗口。
在一种具体可实现方式中，电子设备的窗口监控装置监控多个应用窗口。
其中，该窗口监控装置可以包括一个窗口监控单元，该窗口监控单元用于监控多个应用窗口。也就是说，多个应用对应一个窗口监控单元。
当然，该窗口监控装置也可以包括多个窗口监控单元，该多个窗口监控单元与多个应用一一对应。也就是说，每个应用都有与之对应的一个窗口监控单元。该窗口监控装置用于汇总各个窗口监控单元的监控结果。其中，监控结果可以包括窗口发生变化，窗口未发生变化等。其中，窗口发生变化可以包括窗口最小化、窗口最大化、窗 口还原、窗口移动等。
示例性的，如图4所示，假设：多个应用可以包括应用A、应用B和应用C。相应的，窗口监控装置可以包括窗口监控单元a、窗口监控单元b和窗口监控单元c。其中，窗口监控单元a用于监控应用A的窗口。窗口监控单元b用于监控应用B的窗口。窗口监控单元c用于监控应用C的窗口。窗口监控装置汇总窗口监控单元a、窗口监控单元b和窗口监控单元c的监控结果。
其中，窗口监控装置汇总各个窗口监控单元的监控结果，目的是根据不同的监控结果确定通知策略。具体如下所述：
示例1，当窗口监控装置汇总的监控结果中存在窗口最大化或窗口最小化时，窗口监控装置可以实时发送通知消息。在本申请实施例中，窗口监控装置根据汇总各个窗口监控单元的监控结果，可以实时发送通知消息。也就是说，可以实时监控窗口变化，窗口监控装置一旦监控到窗口发送最大化或最小化的变化就发送通知消息，使抑制策略实时切换，不会影响用户体验，保证用户看到的可见窗口永远都正常播放画面。
示例2，当窗口监控装置汇总的监控结果中存在窗口拖动时，窗口监控装置可以按照预设时间间隔发送通知消息。其中，预设时间间隔可以为0.1-1.5秒。具体的，窗口监控装置可以每1秒发送一次通知消息。在本申请实施例中，窗口监控装置根据汇总各个窗口监控单元的监控结果，可以按照预设时间间隔发送通知消息，无需频繁启动下文中所述的遍历多个应用窗口信息的操作，节省电子设备的功耗。
在Windows操作系统中，往往一个应用可能有几十甚至上百个窗口，由于这些窗口设置了不同的属性、位置信息、尺寸大小等，能够被用户看见的一般只有几个窗口或十几个窗口。因此，在Windows操作系统中，需要对窗口进行筛选，将用户不可以看见的窗口过滤掉。具体如S302-S304、S3041-S3044所述：
S302、当电子设备监控到多个应用窗口中至少一个应用窗口发生变化时，电子设备遍历多个应用窗口的窗口信息。
其中，窗口发生变化可以理解为窗口信息发生变化。其中，窗口信息可以包括窗口的位置信息、窗口的状态信息等。每个应用窗口对应一个窗口信息。该窗口的位置信息可以理解为窗口在显示屏上的显示位置。该窗口的状态信息可以理解为窗口处于最大化或最小化。导致窗口发生变化的操作可以包括窗口的拖动、窗口最大化、窗口最小化、窗口还原等操作。
在一种具体可实现方式中，如图5所示，①电子设备的窗口监控装置接收到各个窗口监控单元发送的监控结果，并监控到多个应用窗口中的至少一个应用(如图5中所示的应用A)窗口发生变化。②电子设备的窗口监控装置向电子设备的过滤装置发送通知消息，该通知消息用于表示存在应用窗口发生变化，并指示过滤装置执行过滤操作。电子设备的过滤装置遍历多个应用窗口中每个应用窗口的窗口信息。可选的，电子设备遍历所有的应用窗口的窗口信息。
S303、电子设备根据多个应用窗口的窗口信息和过滤规则，得到多个应用窗口的窗口状态。其中，窗口状态包括不可见状态，符合过滤规则的应用窗口处于不可见状态。
其中，多个应用中的每个应用具有多个窗口。故，这里所说的多个应用窗口的窗 口信息，应该理解为多个应用中的每个应用的多个窗口的信息，或者，还可以理解为多个应用中的每个应用的所有窗口的信息。
其中，窗口信息包括除了上述的位置信息、状态信息之后，还可以包括窗口的属性。
示例性的，窗口的属性可以包括隐藏属性、不可见属性、工具窗口属性、子窗口属性、透明属性，等等。其中，窗口具有隐藏属性或不可见属性可以指该窗口对用户可不见。窗口为工具窗口属性或子窗口可以指该窗口是依附于其他窗口的，不会超出所依附窗口的范围。窗口具有透明属性可以指该窗口并不能遮挡其他窗口。
该过滤规则可以包括以下至少一项或多项：
(1)位置位于桌面窗口的区域之外的窗口；
(2)尺寸小于等于第一阈值的窗口；
(3)多个应用窗口中的一个窗口的阴影窗口；
(4)属性为目标属性的窗口；或，
(5)属性为被拥有窗口属性，且显示范围未超出拥有窗口显示范围的窗口。
其中，目标属性可以包括隐藏属性、不可见属性、透明属性、子窗口属性中的至少一个。
其中，多个应用窗口可以包括至少一个第一窗口和至少一个第二窗口。多个应用窗口的窗口状态可以包括可见状态和不可见状态。示例性的，第一窗口为基于所述过滤规则得到的处于不可见状态的窗口，至少一个第二窗口为多个应用窗口中除所有第一窗口以外的窗口，即第二窗口不满足所述过滤规则中的任意一项。
示例性的，针对窗口信息包含的内容不同，及过滤规则的不同，S303的实现方式也不同，具体实现方式可以包括以下的一种或多种，如下：
第一种，窗口信息包括位置信息，过滤规则包括位置位于桌面窗口的区域之外的窗口。
在一种具体可实现方式中，参见图3，S303具体可以包括：S3031、电子设备根据多个应用窗口的位置信息，过滤掉在桌面窗口的区域之外的第一窗口，即第一窗口为不可见窗口。示例性的，如图7所示，窗口A位于桌面窗口的区域之外，则窗口A为不可见窗口，由此，该窗口A被过滤掉。
第二种，窗口信息包括位置信息，过滤规则包括尺寸小于等于第一阈值的窗口。
在一种具体可实现方式中，参见图3，S303具体可实现为：S3032、电子设备根据多个应用窗口的位置信息，过滤掉尺寸小于等于第一阈值的第一窗口，即第一窗口为不可见窗口；其中，第一阈值用于表示用户肉眼不可见的尺寸大小。例如，第一阈值为表示像素级别的数值。示例性的，如图7所示，窗口C的尺寸只有像素级别大小，则窗口C为不可见窗口，由此，该窗口C被过滤掉。
第三种，窗口信息包括位置信息，过滤规则包括多个应用窗口中的一个窗口的阴影窗口。
在一种具体可实现方式中，参见图3，S303具体可实现为：S3033、电子设备根据多个应用窗口的位置信息，过滤掉多个应用窗口中的阴影窗口，该阴影窗口为不可见窗口。例如，第一窗口是第二窗口阴影窗口，则第一窗口为不可见窗口。示例性的， 如图7所示，第二窗口D，第二窗口D的阴影窗口D’，即该阴影窗口D’为第一窗口，则窗口D’为不可见窗口。
第四种，窗口信息包括窗口的属性，过滤规则包括属性为目标属性的窗口。
在一种具体可实现方式中，参见图3，S303具体可实现为：S3034、电子设备根据多个应用窗口的属性，过滤掉属性为目标属性的第一窗口，即第一窗口为不可见窗口。
其中，目标属性可以包括隐藏属性、不可见属性、透明属性、子窗口属性中的至少一个。
也就是说，电子设备过滤掉属性为隐藏属性的第一窗口，即第一窗口为不可见窗口。或者，电子设备过滤掉属性为不可见属性的第一窗口，即第一窗口为不可见窗口。或者，电子设备过滤掉属性为透明属性的第一窗口，即第一窗口为不可见窗口。或者，电子设备过滤掉属性为子窗口属性口第一窗的，即第一窗口为不可见窗口。
第五种，窗口信息包括窗口的属性，过滤规则包括属性为被拥有窗口属性，且显示范围未超出拥有窗口显示范围的窗口。
在一种具体可实现方式中，参见图3，S303具体可实现为：S3035、电子设备根据多个应用窗口的属性，过滤掉属性为被拥有窗口属性，且显示范围未超出拥有窗口显示范围的第一窗口，即第一窗口为不可见窗口。
假设，第一指定窗口为拥有窗口，第一窗口为被拥有窗口。其中，第一窗口的范围未超出第一指定窗口的范围，可以理解为第一窗口位于第一指定窗口的区域内。示例性的，如图7所示，第一窗口G，第一指定窗口H。第一窗口G被第一指定窗口H拥有，且第一窗口G在第一指定窗口H的区域内，则第一窗口G为不可见窗口，由此，该第一窗口G被过滤掉。
在另一种具体可实现方式中，参见图3，S303具体可实现为：S3036、电子设备根据多个应用窗口的属性，过滤掉第二指定窗口的子窗口，且范围未超出第二指定窗口的范围的第一窗口，则第一窗口为不可见窗口。
示例性的，如图7所示，第一窗口I，第二指定窗口J。第一窗口I和第二指定窗口J是从属关系。其中，第一窗口I是第二指定窗口J的子窗口，第二指定窗口J是第一窗口I的父窗口。第一窗口I在第二指定窗口J的区域内，则第一窗口I为不可见窗口。
在一些实施例中，在上述过滤掉处于不可见状态的窗口之后，电子设备还可以对剩下的窗口进行进一步的过滤，以过滤掉完全被遮挡的窗口。具体如下：
在执行S303之后，可选的，本申请实施例提供的一种应用程序的抑制方法还可以包括：
S304、电子设备根据至少两个第二窗口的窗口信息，得到至少一个第三窗口。其中，第三窗口为被至少两个第二窗口中的至少一个窗口完全遮挡的窗口。
其中，完全遮挡可以理解为：在垂直于显示屏且射出显示屏的方向上，排列在前的窗口的范围覆盖排列在后的窗口的范围。那么，排列在后的窗口完全被排列在前的窗口遮挡。
在一种具体可实现方式中，参见图3，S304具体可实现为：
S3041、电子设备从至少两个第二窗口中确定至少两个目标窗口。
如上所述，窗口信息可以包括位置信息、状态信息、窗口的属性等。针对窗口信息包含的内容不同，S3041的实现方式也不同，具体如下：
第一种，窗口信息包括位置信息。
在一种具体可实现方式中，S3041具体可实现为：S30411、电子设备根据所述至少两个第二窗口的位置信息，确定出第一部分位于桌面窗口的区域之外的至少一个第二窗口。S30412、电子设备对S30411中确定出的所述至少一个第二窗口的第一部分进行裁剪处理。S30413、电子设备确定在裁剪处理之后的第二窗口为第一目标窗口。示例性的，如图7所示，窗口B的第一部分B’位于桌面窗口的区域之外，则电子设备对窗口B的第一部分B’进行裁剪。
第二种，窗口信息包括窗口的属性。
在一种具体可实现方式中，S3041具体可实现为：S30411’、电子设备根据所述至少两个第二窗口的属性，确定出属性为父窗口属性的至少一个第二窗口，其中，属性为父窗口属性的第二窗口即为第二目标窗口。示例性的，如图7所示，第三指定窗口H，第四指定窗口G。第四指定窗口G和第三指定窗口H是从属关系。其中，第四指定窗口G是第三指定窗口H的子窗口，第三指定窗口H是第四指定窗口G的父窗口。第四指定窗口G在第三指定窗口H的区域内，则第三指定窗口H为第二目标窗口。
在另一种具体可实现方式中，S3041具体可实现为：S30412’、电子设备根据所述至少两个第二窗口的属性，从所述至少两个第二窗口中确定第三目标窗口，该第三目标窗口被第四目标窗口拥有，且范围超出第四目标窗口的范围。示例性的，如图7所示，第五指定窗口E，第六指定窗口F。第五指定窗口E被第六指定窗口F拥有，且第五指定窗口E的区域与第六指定窗口F的区域部分重叠，则第五指定窗口E为第三目标窗口。
需要说明的是，S304是为了判断多个窗口之间的遮挡关系，所以S304中是对至少两个目标窗口进行的处理。如果过滤之后只有一个窗口，则无需执行S304及之后的相关步骤。
S3042、电子设备根据至少两个目标窗口的窗口信息，在垂直于显示屏且射出显示屏的方向上，确定至少两个目标窗口的排列顺序。
如上述，窗口信息可以包括应用窗口的位置信息。
具体地，S3042具体可以为：电子设备根据至少两个目标窗口的位置信息，在垂直于显示屏且射出显示屏的方向上，确定至少两个目标窗口的排列顺序，即确定Z-order在前的窗口，及Z-order在后的窗口。
其中，Z-order就是表示窗口在屏幕上显示时的先后顺序。Z-order在前的窗口会遮挡Z-order在后的窗口。在屏幕上的一块区域需要刷新时，同一个子窗口链中Z-order在前的窗口先刷新，Z-order在后的窗口后刷新。例如，具有父/子关系的窗口：父窗口先刷新，子窗口后刷新。
S3043、电子设备根据至少两个目标窗口的窗口信息和排列顺序，确定第五目标窗口(如上述第一目标应用窗口)正投影在第六目标窗口(如上述第二目标应用窗口)的范围内，且第五目标窗口排列在第六目标窗口的后边。
如上，当Z-order在前的第六目标窗口的范围大于Z-order在后的第五目标窗口的范围时， 电子设备可以确定第五目标窗口被第六目标窗口遮挡。
S3044、电子设备确定第五目标窗口为第三窗口。
当电子设备确定第五目标窗口被第六目标窗口遮挡时，电子设备确定第五目标窗口为第三窗口，即第三窗口为不可见的窗口。
S305、电子设备确定第三窗口处于不可见状态。
综上，电子设备根据多个应用窗口信息，过滤处于用户不可见状态的所有窗口。后续，电子设备进行抑制操作。该抑制操作可以包括以下多种方式：方式一，电子设备对所有不可见的窗口进行抑制；方式二，电子设备对第一应用(第一应用的所有窗口为不可见窗口)进行抑制；方式三，电子设备对第一进程(第一进程的所有窗口为不可见窗口)进行抑制。具体如下：
方式一，
S306、电子设备根据多个应用窗口的窗口状态，对至少一个第一应用进行GPU抑制。其中，第一应用为其对应的所有应用窗口均处于不可见状态的应用。
具体的，如图5所示，③在电子设备的过滤装置确定出所有处于不可见状态的应用窗口之后，过滤装置向电子设备的抑制装置发送抑制指令。④抑制装置根据抑制指令，对第一应用或第一进程进行抑制操作。
具体的，在电子设备的过滤装置确定第一应用的所有窗口为不可见窗口，即确定第一应用为不可见应用之后，电子设备的过滤装置向电子设备的抑制装置发送拦截通知。抑制装置根据拦截通知拦截电子设备的中央处理器(central processing unit，CPU)发出进程指令。
在一种具体可实现方式中，S306具体为：电子设备抑制第一应用的渲染进程。
示例性的，如图6所示，在第一应用启动时，电子设备为第一应用配置图形处理器(graphics processing unit，GPU)抑制程序。电子设备的过滤装置向电子设备的抑制装置发送拦截通知，该拦截通知中携带第一应用的应用编程接口(application programming interface，API)。抑制装置根据拦截通知，拦截电子设备的CPU向GPU发送的用于第一应用的渲染指令，使得CPU不再通知GPU做第一应用的渲染动作。
其中，抑制装置根据拦截通知，拦截电子设备的CPU向GPU发送的用于第一应用的渲染指令，具体可实现为：第一应用的API上加载钩子函数(hook)，当调用API时电子设备先执行钩子函数，从而拦截电子设备的CPU向GPU发送的用于第一应用的渲染指令。
其中，钩子函数也可以称钩子编程(hooking)，亦称作“挂钩”，是计算机程序设计术语。钩子函数指通过拦截软件模块间的函数调用、消息传递、事件传递来修改或扩展操作系统、应用程序或其他软件组件的行为等各种技术。
在本申请实施例中，电子设备的抑制装置可以通过与窗口监控装置、过滤装置配合使用，实时地优化第一应用(即处于用户不可见状态的应用)对GPU资源的使用，达到优化整机GPU能效的目的。另外，在整个抑制过程中，音频仍然正常播放，使得整个优化过程自动进行不需要用户手动干预，也对用户体验不造成任何负面影响。
方式二，
S307、电子设备根据多个应用窗口的窗口状态，对至少一个第一进程进行GPU抑 制。其中，第一进程为其对应的所有应用窗口均处于不可见状态的进程。
具体的，如图5所示，③在电子设备的过滤装置确定第一进程的所有窗口均处于用户为不可见状态之后，过滤装置向电子设备的抑制装置发送抑制指令。④抑制装置根据抑制指令，对第一进程进行抑制操作。
具体的，在电子设备的过滤装置确定第一进程的所有窗口均处于用户为不可见状态之后，电子设备的过滤装置向电子设备的抑制装置发送拦截通知。抑制装置根据拦截通知拦截电子设备的CPU发出渲染指令，从而达到对第一进程进行GPU抑制的目的。其中，一个应用可以包括多个进程。第一进程可以是一个应用的多个进程中的一个或多个。
方式三，
S308、电子设备对所有处于不可见状态的窗口进行最小化处理。
示例性的，在电子设备的过滤装置确定第一应用为不可见应用之后，电子设备的过滤装置向电子设备的处理器发送处理通知，该处理通知中携带第一应用的API。电子设备的处理器根据处理通知，调用第一应用的API。电子设备执行第一应用窗口的最小化操作。
在本申请实施例中，在电子设备可以在收到最小化消息时判定自己对用户不可见，从而优化对图形接口的调用，达到减少GPU资源消耗的目的。
当然，本申请实施例还可以包括其他抑制操作，例如，对电子设备的硬件单元进行资源优化处理，具体如下：
其中，硬件单元可以包括CPU、内存或磁盘。针对不同的硬件，S3053具体可实现如下：
示例性的，硬件单元为CPU。
具体可实现如下：第一，电子设备对第一应用的进程、线程优先级进行调节。第二，电子设备对应用的进程进行绑核操作。如，将第一应用绑到少数核或小核上运行，将下文的第二应用绑到多数核或大核上运行。
示例性的，硬件单元为内存。
具体可实现如下：第一，电子设备对应用的内存优先级进行调整。如，降低第一应用的内存优先级。第二，电子设备对应用的内存工作集回收。如，回收第一应用的工作集，保证前台应用内存足够。
示例性的，硬件单元为磁盘。
具体可实现如下：第一，电子设备对应用的IO优先级调整。如，降低第一应用的IO优先级。第二，电子设备限制第一应用的网络传输速度，保证前台应用的网络流量。
在本申请实施例中，电子设备通过应用是否对用户可见，来对第一应用对应的硬件单元的资源进行优化处理，扩大了优化场景。
另外，存在一些特殊操作也会使一个原本用户不可见的窗口变成用户可见的窗口。该特殊操作可以包括alt+tab切换窗口、点击windows任务栏的“任务视图”按钮、鼠标移动到任务栏上自动弹出窗口的预览视图等。当然，该特殊操作还可以包括一些系统快捷键操作。该特殊操作不会导致应用窗口位置发生变化，但是会导致该应用由用户不可见状态变为用户可见状态。即电子设备的桌面窗口中会显示如图8所示的预览窗 口。在该预览窗口中排布显示各个窗口。
因此，本申请实施例提供的方法，还可以包括：电子设备当监控到第一应用或者第一进程中的至少一个窗口切换为预览窗口时，解除对第一进程或者第一应用的GPU抑制。示例性的，电子设备的窗口监控装置监控到至少一个窗口切换为预览窗口。电子设备的窗口监控装置向电子设备的过滤装置发送通知消息，过滤装置确定该窗口为用户可见窗口，即该窗口中显示的各个窗口也为用户可见窗口。所以，该窗口对应的第一应用或第一进程由用户不可见状态变成用户可见状态。电子设备的过滤装置向电子设备的抑制装置发送指令，该指令用于指示抑制装置解除对第一应用或第一进程的抑制。电子设备的抑制装置根据指令解除对第一应用或第一进程的抑制。可见，本申请实施例中，电子设备可以实时监控窗口状态的变化，支撑实时策略切换，使后台抑制措施对用户无感。

本申请实施例还提供了一种芯片，该芯片包括处理器和接口电路，该接口电路和该处理器耦合，该处理器用于运行计算机程序或指令，以实现上述方法，该接口电路用于与该芯片之外的其它模块进行通信。
