Abstract: A sequence of media items is obtained obtaining, at a first distribution site. Local media content to be inserted into the sequence of media items, which is transmitted by a second distribution site, is received at the first distribution site. The first distribution site also receives a control signal transmitted by the second distribution site. The control signal controls playout of the local media content in relation to the sequence of media items. The first distribution site transmits the local media content and the control signal to one or more dispersed transmission sites.

Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to memory device log data storage. In some implementations, a memory device may store a first data stream associated with a first type of log data in a circular buffer.

The memory device may detect an event included in the second data stream that is associated with an attribute level that satisfies a threshold. The memory device may write data stored in the circular buffer after a time at which the event is detected to a non-volatile memory based on the attribute level satisfying the threshold, wherein the data stored in the circular buffer is stored in the non-volatile memory in connection with data associated with the event.

Abstract: In some examples, a processor may access past order information for a plurality of merchants to determine, for an upcoming time period, a number of orders predicted to be received by the merchants. The processor may determine geographic locations of delivery agent devices, each associated with a respective delivery agent. The processor may compare, for the upcoming time period, a number of active delivery agents with the number of orders predicted to be received. Based at least on determining a predicted shortage of active delivery agents for the upcoming time period, the processor selects a first delivery agent of the plurality of delivery agents to pick up a first order from a first pickup location of a first merchant and a second order from a second pickup location of a second merchant, and sends a message to a first delivery agent device associated with the first delivery agent.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for detecting information modification in a memory system are described. A system may generate a first value, such as a first hash value, from information stored in storage component. The system may then generate a second value, such as a second hash value, from content stored in the storage component. After generating the second value, the system may compare the second value to the first value. The system may then determine the modification status of the information based on the comparison, and implement one or more operations based on the modification status.

Abstract: A foil displacement system includes one or more foils that can be deployed and stowed. When deployed, each foil can exert downforce or uplift depending on its orientation. For example, each foil may be positioned to have an angle of attack that creates a downward force effectively transmitted to the hull to pull the hull deeper within the water to, for example, create a larger wake. Use of the foil displacement system can enhance or replace the use of a ballast tank system, can be integrated into a new boat or retrofitted to existing boats, can be electronically or manually positioned, can enhance activities such as wake surfing, wake boarding, water skiing or other similar or related water sports.

Abstract: A method of validating traffic-flow predictions includes obtaining traffic-flow prediction, associated with a particular roadway segment and a particular time. Recorded traffic data corresponding to the particular roadway segment and the particular time, which includes data from traffic probe devices, is obtained. A subset of the recorded traffic data, limited to data obtained from a subset of the traffic probe devices, is obtained, and used to generate an estimated actual traffic-flow. At least a first quality index, which is based on a degree to which the traffic-flow prediction corresponds to the estimated actual traffic-flow, is generated. If the at least a first quality index satisfies at least a first quality threshold, the traffic-flow prediction is flagged for review.
