  • Patent number: 9742723
    Abstract: Systems and methods for creating and using a domain profile include identifying a status of a first page associated with a domain. The first page is retrieved and additional pages from the domain are identified based on hyperlinks from the first page. The status of the additional pages is identified and the hyperlinks are prioritized based on the status and/or a comparison with predetermined data. Content is extracted from the first page and selected pages from among the additional pages. The specific additional pages may be selected based on the prioritization. The retrieved content may be processed through a signature marker set to determine a contextual match. A purpose of the domain is determined according to the status of the first page, the status of the additional pages and results of the processing of the content. The domain profile can be displayed, stored, sent and/or searched to identify web sites or attributes of interest.

  • Publication number: 20150302459
    Abstract: A system for inserting brand-related data into messages communicated via messaging services and for taking actions in response to selection of such brand-related data at message receiving devices by message receivers. The brand-related data comprises or is representative of brands, logos, images, icons, symbols and/or links to Internet-accessible content, websites, webpages, or other resources, thereby enabling sellers to advertise and provide information about products/services and to conduct promotional campaigns through messaging services. The insertion of brand-related data is configurable to cause insertion at random intervals/counts or pre-determined intervals/counts of messages or message bubbles. The appearance and location of inserted brand-related data is also configurable. Additionally, the display of brand-related data and taking of actions in response to selection of brand-related data by a message receiver may be enabled or disabled based on the passage of a period of time or calendar date.

  • Patent number: 8909760
    Abstract: Systems and methods for scoring a domain including analyzing counter data and information obtained from a web site associated with the domain. Methods may include receiving requests to resolve the domain at an authoritative domain resolution server. A counter may be incremented for the domain based on the received requests. Information may be obtained from a web page associated with the domain. For example, obtaining information from the web page may include obtaining quantitative, qualitative, and/or functional information from the web page, such as link information, a status of network links corresponding to the link information, and associated ratios. The status of link information may include searching for functional details and/or results, such as, domain redirections, domain errors, mirror content, and commonly linked sites. A score may be calculated for the domain based upon the counter data and the information obtained from the web page associated with the domain.

  • Patent number: 6110831
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing integrated circuits utilizing chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is disclosed. A dielectric layer, illustratively, having a dopant, dye, etc. termed a "marker layer" is formed upon a wafer having partially fabricated integrated circuits thereon. An undoped, undyed layer is deposited upon the marker layer. The undoped or undyed layer is polished and the waste slurry is monitored until a signal indicating the exposure of the signal layer is obtained. Analysis of the signal provides an indication of when the CMP process should be terminated.
