Abstract: A computer implemented method, a computer system, and computer code stored on tangible, non-transient media, for determining bandwidth of a page load for a specific feature associated with the page. Network traffic associated with requests of a loading of a page to be displayed on a device is monitored. Requests of the loaded page are assigned to an associated function of the page. A set parameters associated with loading of each of the plural features is determined and a scoring function is applied to each set of parameters to determine a raw score. The raw score is normalized into a performance score for the corresponding feature in accordance with a standard total performance score for the page.

Abstract: Techniques to provide a micro-broadcast of an event are described. Video data streams of a live event at a venue may be captured in one or more wireless camera devices. The data streams may be sent to one of a network of wireless access points where they are relayed to a control center. A computer system in the control center may select one of the video data streams to be broadcast as a micro-broadcast. The selected video data stream may then be formatted for the micro-broadcast before a micro-broadcast transmitter broadcasts the formatted selected video data stream.

Abstract: A computer implemented method, a computer system, and computer code stored on tangible, non-transient media, for determining bandwidth of a page load for a specific feature associated with the page. Network traffic associated with requests of a loading of a page to be displayed on a device is monitored. Requests of the loaded page are assigned to an associated function of the page. At least one request chain associated with the associated function is created and a respective time for loading of each of the at least one request chains is determined. An aggregate of the respective times for loading is used to determine a bandwidth metric associated with the feature.

Abstract: A system and method operates on a client device and acquires a suspect list of user products based on information derived from the client device. The system normalizes the list, and the user confirms the accuracy of the product list. The user product list is sent to a server where the user product list is compared to other lists using collaborative filtering techniques. The collaborative filtering techniques determine products of interest for the use and the level of interest of the user. The system computes a similarity measure bused upon the number of similar products that match the user's product list and rankings provided by the user and others. Demographic and behavioral data may also be used in performing the comparison and the similarity measure. The system acquires editorial rankings of products from other users and provides a ranked list of recommended products based upon the editorial rankings.
