Patent number: 10406443Abstract: When a content acquisition unit acquires a part of full-size application software, an installation processing unit installs the acquired part, and an execution unit sets the installed application software to be executable. While the execution unit is executing the application software, the content acquisition unit continues to download the application software. A display processing unit changes a display mode of an icon image differently when a part of the application software is installed and when the application software is installed in its entirety.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2012Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc.Inventors: Kenichi Imai, Shigeru Enomoto, Hiroshi Saito, Toshimasa Aoki, Satoshi Hashimoto

Patent number: 10402452Abstract: A distributed hash table (DHT) based logging service utilizes a DHT to store an event log or another type of data. For example, applications can utilize the logging service to store data that logs aspects of their operation. A key/value storage service can provide access to the DHT. The data stored in the DHT can be organized into a “skipchain” data structure. The data structure includes nodes storing the data that are distributed across partitions of the DHT. Nodes in the data structure can identify “redundancy nodes” and “skip nodes.” When a request is received to add new data to the skipchain data structure, a new node is stored in the DHT that includes the new data. A head node for the data structure is updated in the DHT. The head node can also be utilized to recover from a failure to write an internal node to the data structure.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2015Date of Patent: September 3, 2019Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Andrew Ross Evenson

Patent number: 10367705Abstract: Technologies are disclosed herein for selecting and configuring metrics to monitor. The metrics available for monitoring are associated with computing resources provided by a service provider network. Instead of requiring a customer to manually determine the metrics that may be monitored, the service provider network may dynamically determine the metrics available for monitoring based on the infrastructure specified by the customer to execute in the service provider network. In this way, customers may not only select metrics related to the health of the computing devices (physical or virtual), the customer may also select metrics related to the software applications executing on the computing devices.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2015Date of Patent: July 30, 2019Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Sebastien Alexandre Roland Rodriguez

Patent number: 10359847Abstract: A method, system, computer program product, and computer readable storage medium provide the ability to prevent bypass of advertisement viewing. A media content user interface component (that controls playback of the media content and an advertisement in a media player) is activated. The component includes a circular progress bar and a progress marker that coincides with the circular progress bar. As the media content is playing, the progress marker moves around the circular progress bar reflecting a progress of the playing. At a defined point in the media content, an advertisement is played. User input advances the progress marker along the circular progress bar to fast forward the media content. Upon an attempt to advance the progress marker a defined threshold distance beyond the advertisement, the progress marker is snapped back to the advertisement thereby preventing bypass of viewing the advertisement.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2015Date of Patent: July 23, 2019Assignee: THE DIRECTV GROUP, INC.Inventors: Arpi Mardirossian, Vladislav Kolegayev

Patent number: 10341648Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for performing automated analysis of frame-over-frame pixel changes in recorded video of the display output of a computing device to determine whether the computing device presented an animated buffering indicator or other animated problem indicator. A system may be configured to detect motion by determining frame-over-frame pixel intensity changes at various pixel locations across a number of frames, then to determine whether the pixel locations that suggest motion (such as those pixel locations that had sufficient intensity change when accounting for potential noise in the video data) are concentrated in an area of the screen in which problem indicators are expected to be displayed. The system may then determine whether the shape of the pixel locations that indicated sufficient motion match an expected shape or path of motion for a given class of problem indictors.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2017Date of Patent: July 2, 2019Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Spencer Patrick Fonte, Sean James Amos, Michael Aaron Fox
