Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to automatically prioritizing predicted events in a dynamic predicted queueing profile (PQP) for a service provider (SP) for a finite future time period. In an illustrative example, a central orchestration engine (COE) may generate, in response to a request for service from a service seeking entity (SSE), a dynamic queueing event profile (DQEP) associating the SSE with the PQP for the SP at the future time period. The COE may, for example, generate a confidence level of execution (CLE) for each DQEP in the PQP based on a historical behavior profile (HBP) of the SP and of each corresponding SSE. The COE may, for example, apply the confidence level of execution to each corresponding DQEP to assign a priority in the PQP. Various embodiments may, for example, advantageously dynamically prioritize a queue based on historical behavior of an SP and SSEs in the queue.

Abstract: A system and method for assigning trip requests to schedules for a fleet of one or more available vehicles in a manner that allows for the comparison of the various possible schedules against a number of global factors. Trip requests are combined into packets and one or more packets that can serve as a root packet or a first packet to be serviced by a partial shift are determined. Schedules are determined for each of the one or more possible root packets. The schedules are ranked according to one or more global factors to select a schedule for the partial shift. By generating combinations of packets that can be assigned to partial shifts, the problem of combinatorial explosion is reduced such that alternative schedules can be compared against one or more quality metrics for the schedule.

Abstract: A ticket exchange server is configured to determine a number of tickets to distribute for an event. The ticket exchange server accesses, for a stadium, training data describing attendance at historical events, historical opponents of a sports team, and a historical win/loss record of the sports team. The ticket exchange server trains a machine-learned model configured to predict an attendance for a future event at the stadium based on an opponent of the sports team at the future event and a current or predicted win/loss record of the sports team. The ticket exchange server selects an event for the sports team against an opponent and determines a predicted attendance using the machine-learned model. The ticket exchange server identifies a number of tickets greater than a capacity of the stadium to make available based on the predicted attendance and distributes the number of tickets to prospective attendees.

Abstract: Devices, systems and methods for electronic systems that manage an order in which an aircraft is boarded or deplaned are described. An exemplary method includes configuring an onboard computer to execute a script, wherein the script controls an order by which passengers on an airplane are prompted for deplaning, updating the script for a travel segment of the airplane using a first input comprising a passenger information for the travel segment or a second input comprising a travel configuration of the airplane during the travel segment or a third input from onboard crew of the airplane; and controlling onboard electronic equipment of the airplane by executing the script at an end of the travel segment by prompting passengers to deplane the airplane in the order.

Abstract: Systems and methods relating to improving the experience of gig-economy workers are disclosed, with particular reference to gig-economy work involving vehicle use. Such systems and methods include automatically monitoring and evaluating activities such as driving during performance of gigs, as well as providing recommendations based thereupon. Transferable tokens may be used to apply information across various types of gig activities. Such a transferable token may represent one or more risk levels associated with a gig-economy worker to provide reputational information between gig-economy platforms or between types of gig-economy activities. Thus, the transferable token may enable a gig-economy worker to transfer high customer ratings across gig-economy platforms.

Abstract: A ticket exchange server is configured to distribute tickets to an event based on predicted attendance. The ticket exchange server accesses a set of training data describing statistics of and attendance during a historical event for a plurality of historical events. Using the training data, the ticket exchange server trains a machine-learned model, which is configured to predict a likelihood of a seat at a stadium being vacant during an event based on real-time statistics. During an event at the stadium, the ticket exchange server detects a vacant seat associated with a first ticket of a first user. The ticket exchange server determines a value of a second ticket for the vacant seat at least in part by applying the machine-learned model to real-time statistics of the event and distributes the second ticket to a second user.

Abstract: Technologies are provided for automated configuration of delivery of a product or service. The technologies include a vehicular network that can detect job requests for the delivery of a product or service, where the job requests are based on hashtags. Each vehicle in the vehicular network can include an apparatus that can receive request data from a computing system remotely located relative to the vehicle. A first portion of the request data defines a job request which can be detected by the apparatus by validating the request data. The apparatus can then update a ledger record and also can cause other vehicle in the vehicular network to update other respective ledger records. In addition, the apparatus can send a response to the job request to the computing system. The response permits implementing, or managing the implementation, of a transaction corresponding to the job request.
