  • Publication number: 20240095127
    Abstract: The Fleetwide Adaptive Rate Limiting Gatekeeper Apparatuses, Processes and Systems (“FARLG”) transforms API call permission request, API call result request datastructure/inputs via FARLG components into API call permission response, API call result response outputs. An API call permission request datastructure associated with an API call of an application structured to identify an API and a set of scopes is obtained. A retry-after interval is determined for each scope in the set of scopes, in which existence of a retry-after interval for a scope indicates that the API previously returned a throttled response for the scope. A wait duration associated with the API call is determined as the maximum retry-after interval across retry-after intervals that exist for the set of scopes. An API call permission response datastructure structured to specify the wait duration is provided.

  • Patent number: 9619467
    Abstract: A dynamic classification dictionary is built for use in profiling and targeting users for additional relevant content. Behavioral data is gathered from user activity, and user documents and actions are categorized. Author-generated document classification information is analyzed and assigned a first taxonomic noun to characterize the document. User-generated tags characterizing a portion of the document are assigned a second taxonomic noun. Search terms that resulted in the user accessing the document are identified and assigned a third taxonomic noun. Attributes related to the manner in which the document was accessed are evaluated and assigned a fourth taxonomic noun. The document is processed using pattern rules to extract a fifth taxonomic noun. The taxonomic nouns are aggregated into a composite set of taxonomic nouns, and the dynamic classification dictionary is built by storing the composite set of taxonomic nouns.

  • Publication number: 20160239575
    Abstract: User profiles are created based on taxonomic nouns related to documents accessed by the user. The profiles can be leveraged to create lists, such as mailing lists and lead lists, to target content, such as offers, to persons most likely to be interested in the content. A database of the profiles is queried based on nouns describing content to be promoted. The profiles that satisfy the query are used to generate a list. The invention can be used to create any type of list, such as mailing lists, lead lists, lists of related content, lists of related users, lists of categorized content, and the like.
