Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and non-transitory computer-readable mediums for receiving media data of a session. One apparatus includes processing circuitry that receives a media presentation description (MPD) file and one or more session-based description (SBD) files. The MPD file includes one or more essential property descriptors for session-based dynamic adaptive streaming over hypertext transfer protocol (DASH). Each of the one or more essential property descriptors is associated with a different SBD file in the one or more SBD files. The processing circuitry determines, for a period in the MPD file, whether the period has a supplemental property descriptor for session-based DASH. The processing circuitry applies one of the one or more SBD files to the period in response to the period having the supplemental property descriptor. An identification value in the supplemental property descriptor is included in one essential property descriptor associated with the SBD file.

Abstract: A system can select media content instances for users, based on media preferences associated with the users and priority ratings of the media content instances. When the system selects a media content instance for a user, the system can send a text message or other notification to a user device of the user. The notification can include a media link to the selected media content instance. The system can also receive user feedback on the relevance and/or usefulness of the media content instances, which the system can use to adjust the priority ratings of the media content instances over time. The system can additionally determine whether consumption of media content instances by users leads to changes in behavior of the users over time.

Abstract: A web application has a limit on the total number of concurrent users. As requests from client devices are received from users, a determination is made whether the application can accept those users. When the threshold number of users has been exceeded, new users are prevented from accessing the web application and are assigned to a queue system. A webpage may be sent to the users indicating queue status and may provide their estimated wait time. A cookie may be sent to the client for tracking the position of the user in the application queue. The users are assigned to a user bucket associated with a time interval of their initial request. When user slots become available, the users queued in the user bucket (starting from the oldest user bucket) are allowed access to the web application.
