Patent number: 9602694Abstract: A method for processing a print job includes: a) processing printer description language (PDL) image data for a select page of a print job to form raster image data for the select page, processing of the PDL image data and storing the raster image data in a RIP orientation; b) processing the raster image data for the select page to form bitmap image data for the select page, transforming the raster image data from the RIP orientation to a print orientation and storing the bitmap image data in the print orientation; and c) printing the bitmap image data arranged in the print orientation on a target substrate page to form a printed substrate page for the select page of the print job. A printing platform associated with the method includes a storage device, a RIP module, a rotator module, and a print engine.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2011Date of Patent: March 21, 2017Assignee: XEROX CORPORATIONInventors: Francis Kapo Tse, Peter Charles Rapley, David Russel Sponable, Jason Slack, David Rivshin, Lonnie A.

Publication number: 20160117727Abstract: Described herein are solutions for improving ad retargeting. For example, described herein are solutions for improving ad retargeting amongst various online marketing channels, such as search engine and native advertising marketing channels. The solutions can include adaptive ad retargeting. Adaptive ad retargeting can be beneficial in that it can solve the problem of ineffectively predicting which search terms to associate with advertising, such as in a more conventional process of selecting search terms in a search engine marketing campaign. Instead, for example, these technologies can identify behavior of individuals who have already interacted with certain advertising online, so that when similar behavior occurs by those individuals or other users, ads can be retargeted to such users effectively according to the similar behavior.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 27, 2014Publication date: April 28, 2016Applicant: YAHOO! INC.Inventors: Bruce Campbell, Jonathan Avni, Chloe Chen

Patent number: 9305022Abstract: The present application is directed to systems and methods for associating a geographic location with an IP address. Generally, an IP address from which each of a plurality of users accesses a network is recorded. A geo tag is associated with each of the plurality of users and a subset of the plurality of users is identified, the subset including users associated with a first IP address. The subset of the plurality of users is clustered into a spatial cluster including users associated with geo tags located with a defined distance of a geo tag of at least one other user of the cluster. A geographic location associated with a geographic center of the cluster is then associated with the first IP address.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2013Date of Patent: April 5, 2016Assignee: Yahoo!
