Abstract: A method of propagating annotations of content items to a search query is disclosed. A strength of a correspondence between a search query and a listing of an item on a network-based publication system is determined. The strength of the correspondence is based on an analysis of a set of actions by a set of users who submitted the search query. A set of annotations is generated. The set of annotations is propagated to a search engine and used to enhance search results.

Abstract: In one aspect, there is provided a system including at least one data processor and at least one memory. The at least one memory may store instructions that cause operations when executed by the at least one data processor. The operations may include retrieving a schedule for a plurality of processes, the plurality of processes scheduled for multiple executions over a time period. The operations may further include generating a user interface configured to receive user input for scheduling a process of the plurality of processes, the user interface comprising one or more fields for scheduling the multiple executions. The operations may further restricting, by the processor, a quantity of scheduled executions for a process of the plurality of processes.
