Abstract: Systems and methods for providing third-party content can include a data processing system receiving a first content selection parameter and a plurality of second content selection parameters to manage serving of content items of a third-party content provider. The data processing system can store the first content selection parameter and a plurality of second content selection parameters in a memory bank. Upon receiving a request for third-party content, the data processing system can retrieve the first content selection parameter and the plurality of second content selection parameters from the memory bank, and determine a parameter among the first content selection parameter and the plurality of second content selection parameters. The data processing system can select a content item from a plurality of content items of the third-party content provider based on the determined parameter, and provide the selected content item for presentation on a client device.

Abstract: A unique identifier is assigned to a network node and is used to obtain an “asset model” corresponding to the node and to determine whether the node is a member of a particular category. An asset model is a set of information about a node (e.g., the node's role within the enterprise, software installed on the node, and known vulnerabilities/weaknesses of the node). An identifier lookup module determines a node's identifier based on characteristics of the node (such as IP address, host name, network zone, and/or MAC address), which are used as keys into lookup data structures. A category lookup module determines whether a particular node is a member of (i.e., within) a particular category using a transitive closure to model the categories (properties) that can be attached to an asset model. A transitive closure for a particular asset category is stored as a bitmap, similar to bitmap indexing.

Abstract: A system can be configured using configuration objects that have the ability to refer to one another. In one embodiment, the present invention includes such a system having a plurality of objects used to configure the system, each object having a uniform resource identifier (URI), and an object reference table to enable the plurality of objects to reference each other without using URIs.
