The system determines a quality metric of the first snippet and a quality metric of the second snippet. The system selects one of the first snippet and the second snippet based on the quality metric of the first snippet and the quality metric of the second snippet.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of logical movement of data objects. In various examples, the logical movement of data objects may reduce or eliminate network hotspots (e.g., avoid formation of hotspots, remove existing hotspots and/or reduce the magnitude of hotspots). In various examples, the logical movement of data objects may be implemented in the form of systems, methods and/or algorithms.

Abstract: Implementing messaging client-based reminders includes monitoring, via a computer processor, a communication exchange for a communication session and determining an occurrence of an alarm event from contents of the communication exchange in response to the monitoring. Upon determining the occurrence of the alarm event, a reminder is generated and a timer is set indicating a time value corresponding to a time expression in the communication exchange. Upon expiration of the timer, the reminder is transmitted.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, a method of operating a streaming media client includes electronically receiving, from a network, information regarding component access points of a first multiplexed representation of a streaming content. The first multiplexed representation of the streaming content includes a plurality of media components, and each component access point defines an independently coded access point for one of the plurality of media components. The method further includes selecting a first segment of the first multiplexed representation of the streaming content based on the information regarding the component access points, and requesting the selected first segment of the first multiplexed representation of the streaming content from the network.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes identifying, with a computer system that has a network interface, one or more primary categories of content from a social networking system that are of primary relevance to a user of a computing device, as compared to one or more secondary categories of content from the social networking system that are of lower importance to the user of the computing device; causing content from the primary categories to be downloaded from the social networking system to the computing device automatically and without user interaction with a social networking application that is arranged to display the downloaded content; and causing content from the secondary categories to be downloaded from the social networking system to the computing device separately from the content from the primary categories, and in response to a defined user interaction with a social networking application that corresponds to the social networking system.

Abstract: One or more measurements of processor utilization are taken. A utilization ceiling is calculated. One or more processing units (PUs) are added automatically if it is determined that the utilization ceiling is greater than an available PU capacity. One or more PUs are removed automatically responsive to determining that the utilization ceiling is at least one PU less than the available PU capacity.

One or more PUs are removed automatically responsive to determining that the utilization ceiling is at least one PU less than the available PU capacity.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed for generating social networking reports. In various embodiments, the technology receives an identity of a user wherein the identity is associated with a first online social network and does not include a password; collects first information about the user from the first online social network; generates a first report based on the collected first information; and transmits the generated first report.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for allocating network resources across network flow aggregates to apply fairness at different levels of flow aggregation. Utility functions of member flows in each aggregate may be adjusted based on a target aggregate utility function. Processes for allocating network resources may then be performed using the adjusted member utility functions.

Abstract: A mobile terminal system for providing instant messaging to a third-party application includes a mobile terminal having one or more processors and memory for storing one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the mobile terminal to perform the instructions of acquiring an application ID (appid) and a software development kit (SDK) from an instant messaging open platform by the third-party application; registering the third-party application at the instant messaging open platform using the acquired appid and SDK when the third-party application initiates; providing an open application programming interface (API) to the third-party application via the instant messaging open platform; and transmitting information between the instant messaging open platform and the third-party application via the open API.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for heuristics-based adaptive protocol parsing are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method for heuristics-based adaptive protocol parsing includes receiving a message of a first protocol, where the first protocol defines a plurality of valid message formats, and parsing the received message using a protocol tree for determining whether the received message is in one of the plurality of valid message formats. While parsing the received message, heuristics are used to optimize the protocol tree. In one embodiment, the protocol tree is optimized for parsing messages having the message format of a received message.

Abstract: The disclosure discloses a method for sharing audio and/or video. The method includes the steps that: a first terminal writes audio and/or video from an audio-video providing module into a cache space according to a play request of a second terminal, and transmits the audio and/or video stored in the cache space to the second terminal. The disclosure further discloses a system for sharing the audio and/or video. With the disclosure, a video conference of a mobile terminal can be displayed at a digital home network terminal in real time, so that the video content can be displayed through the digital terminal that does not support video conferences. Moreover, when a user gets home, a mobile phone terminal involved in the video conference can conveniently switch the images to a television terminal, thus not needing to be held by the user. Therefore, user experience is improved.

Abstract: In a system for delivering notifications to a network administrator's web browser during normal web browsing, a transaction state management module disposed between the web browser and the Internet tracks and manages various states of communications, a notification module stores notification messages, and an authentication module is configured to authenticate web page requests. Upon identifying the administrator through the authentication module, a client-side proxy temporarily stores the original HTTP request. A notification generator module constructs a notification data, and a special link to acknowledge the notice, which are returned to the web browser. Once the administrator selects the link, the original HTTP request is extracted from storage and forwarded by a server-side proxy to the original destination server.
