20140351936 | FREQUENCY-VARIABLE ANTI-VIRUS TECHNOLOGY - A frequency-variable anti-virus technology relates to a method and apparatus for dynamically adjusting an amount of system resources occupied by security protection software running on a user device. The method comprises: collecting, by the security protection software, state information associated with the user device; calculating the expected operating intensity of the security protection software based on the state information; and operating the security protection software based on the calculated expected operating intensity, so as to adjust the amount of system resources occupied by the security protection software. The apparatus may comprise means for performing the abovementioned steps, respectively. The method and apparatus may be used to dynamically adjust an operating policy of the security protection software, so as to more rationally allocate system resources among the software of the user device, thus improving the usage efficiency of the system resources and improving the usage experience of the user. | 11-27-2014 |
