  • Patent number: 11430003
    Abstract: Systems and methods of evaluating information in a computer network environment are provided. A data processing system can obtain or receive a content placement criterion, such as a keyword, associated with a content item and can determine a quality metric of the content placement criterion. The data processing system can identify a candidate content placement criterion and expand placement criteria associated with the content item to include the content placement criterion and the candidate content placement criterion based at least in part on an evaluation of the quality metric of the content placement criterion. The data processing system can expand placement criteria based in part on a throttling parameter. The data processing system can identify a correlation between a document and the placement criteria to identify appropriate content items for the document.

  • Patent number: 11403456
    Abstract: In implementations of application-based font previewing, a font preview system of a computing device receives a font file corresponding to a font of a font repository via a network. The font preview system encrypts font tables of the font file and the font preview system writes the encrypted font tables to a font disk cache of the computing device. The font preview system writes metadata describing the font tables to a font memory cache of the computing device. In response to receiving a request to preview the font from an application of the computing device, the font preview system uses the metadata to identify and decrypt a particular font table of the encrypted font tables, and the application renders glyphs of the font in a user interface using the decrypted particular font table.

  • Patent number: 11341317
    Abstract: Herein are fine grained updates to pieces of JavaScript object notation (JSON) documents by database statements that can update, delete, and insert parts of JSON documents. In an embodiment, a computer receives a request that specifies a modification of a JSON document that is stored in a compressed format in persistent storage. The modification adds additional content to the JSON document, and/or replaces an old value in the JSON document with a new value that is not a same size as the old value. The modification is recorded in a change log. The change log is eventually applied to the compressed format of the JSON document in the persistent storage without entirely rewriting the compressed format of the JSON document in the persistent storage.
