  • Publication number: 20240134918
    Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic user profile projection are provided. One or more aspects of the systems and methods includes computing, by a prediction component, a predicted number of lookups for a future time period based on a lookup history of a user profile using a lookup prediction model; comparing, by the prediction component, the predicted number of lookups to a lookup threshold; and transmitting, by a projection component, the user profile to an edge server based on the comparison.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic user profile management are provided. One aspect of the systems and methods includes receiving, by a lookup component, a request for a user profile; computing, by a profile component, a time-to-live (TTL) refresh value for the user profile based on a lookup history of the user profile; updating, by the profile component, a TTL value of the user profile based on the request and the TTL refresh value; storing, by the profile component, the user profile and the updated TTL value in the edge database; and removing, by the edge database, the user profile from the edge database based on the updated TTL value.

  • Publication number: 20240108648
    Abstract: One aspect of the present application relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a sulfated glycosaminoglycan having an average molecular weight ranging from 3,000 to 15,000 Daltons, a skin penetrating agent, where the skin penetrating agent promotes transdermal penetration of the sulfated glycosaminoglycan when applied to intact skin surfaces, and a pharmaceutical carrier for topical application, where the pharmaceutical carrier is mixed with the sulfated glycosaminoglycan and the skin penetrating agent. This composition is useful in carrying out a method of treating a subject for pain, joint stiffness, soft tissue injury, connective tissue disorders, and/or muscle soreness.

  • Patent number: 11893604
    Abstract: Supplemental content can be determined through a server-side process, wherein a primary content provider can obtain the supplemental content from a supplemental content provider before any of the content is sent to the client device initially requesting the primary content. A primary content provider submits a request that can include an authorization token for the primary content provider, a publisher token including a proxy identifier for the user, application, or client device, and other relevant information. The supplemental content provider can verify the information and select targeted content based on the information. The supplemental content can then be provided to the primary content provider for incorporation with the primary content. The primary content provider can adjust the layout or selection before sending to the client device for display.

  • Patent number: 11361354
    Abstract: Described herein are techniques for efficiently upgrading product information stored on a client device to the latest version that reflects the current products offered by a particular establishment. Product information changes frequently, which could result in large upgrade packages. Yet, the time available for downloading the packages onto a device may be severely limited. To improve download time, upgrade packages may be shard based on product commonality within different predefined scopes. For instance, information related to products common across chain-wide establishments may be upgraded using one set of upgrade packages, and information related to products common across region-wide establishments may be upgraded using another set. This upgrade framework helps reduce file size and leverage the edge-caching capabilities of content delivery networks to reduce the time needed to transmit upgrade packages to client devices.

  • Patent number: 10692116
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for optimization of ad request fulfillment for mobile device applications. In one embodiment, a system may receive an ad request from a mobile device, and determine a first price point associated with a publisher of the ad request. The system may send a bid request to ad servers, receive a first bid with a first bid amount, and may determine that the first bid amount is a highest bid amount. The system may determine that the first price point is less than the first bid amount, and may send the first bid amount and the first price point to the mobile device, where the mobile device is configured to send the first bid amount and the first price point to a publisher ad server, and the publisher ad server is configured to determine that the first bid amount is a winning bid amount.

  • Patent number: 10572909
    Abstract: The embodiments implement server-side third party content insertion with client-side tracking beacon. The solution embeds third party content within designated breaks of primary content to form a single unified stream that is streamed to a client requesting the primary content. The unified stream allows the client to receive all content without switching between different streams and prevents advertisement blockers running on the client from differentiating the third party content from the primary content and from blocking the third party content. The solution also generates and sends to the client, a configuration containing events and destinations the different content providers define for their respective content. The client monitors for the events specified in the configuration during playback of the unified stream. An event that is triggered causes the client to send a tracking beacon to a content provider specified destination associated with the event.
