Patent number: 11457078Abstract: Systems and methods for managing content delivery functionalities based on machine learning models are provided. In one aspect, content requests are routed in accordance with clusters of historical content requests to optimize cache performance. In another aspect, content delivery strategies for responding to content requests are determined based on a model trained on data related to historical content requests. The model may also be used to determine above-the-fold configurations for rendering responses to content requests. In some embodiments, portions of the model can be executed on client computing devices.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2018Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Blair Livingstone Hotchkies, Bradley Scott Bowman, Paul Christopher Cerda, Min Chong, Anthony T. Chor, Leo Parker Dirac, Kevin Andrew Granade, Udip Pant, Sean Michael Scott

Patent number: 10542106Abstract: Content pre-render and pre-fetch techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a likelihood is predicted of subsequent navigation to content associated with a network address based at least in part on monitored navigation performed by a computing device to one or more network addresses. A determination is then made whether to cause the computing device to pre-fetch and pre-render the content based at least in part on the prediction.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2017Date of Patent: January 21, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Ritika Kapadia, Venkatraman V.

Patent number: 10126911Abstract: Embodiments include providing multiple discernible indicia that provide an indication of behaviors associated with selection of a particular link. The multiple discernible indicia may include visually-discernible graphical icons configured to be displayed as a pictorial image that visually represents a behavior associated with selection of the particular link. The visually-discernible graphical icons may include a first icon that, when selected, causes a default behavior associated with the link selection to occur, and a second icon that, when selected, causes an alternative behavior associated with the link selection to occur. Also, responsive to receiving a user-provided modifier, the first or second icon may be replaced with a third icon that visually represents a different alternative behavior to occur that is different than both the default and alternative behaviors.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2015Date of Patent: November 13, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Aaron J. Sauve, Anthony T. Chor, Stephan Hoefnagels

Patent number: 9058396Abstract: In one or more embodiments, a flip ahead input, such as a gesture, provides touch users with an ability to easily navigate various websites. The flip ahead input can be utilized to advance to the next portion of relevant content. In at least some embodiments, the flip ahead input resides in the form of a forward swipe. In one or more embodiments, the flip ahead input is configured to be utilized in association with an aggregated browsing history from multiple users. The aggregated browsing history is analyzed to generate rules that are then downloaded to a client device and used by a suitably-configured web browser to ascertain the next portion of content when a flip ahead input is received.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2012Date of Patent: June 16, 2015Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jane T.

Patent number: 8621635Abstract: Various embodiments enable detection of third party content sources that may pose a privacy risk to a user. In at least some embodiments, webpages navigated to via a browser can be processed to identify third party content sources that provide content for the webpages. Data may be stored to relate the third party content sources to webpages in which the third party content is encountered. The data may then be analyzed to determine when a particular third party is in a position to observe browsing habits of a user. Responsive to determining a privacy risk, notification may be output in a variety of ways to inform a user of potentially risky content. In at least some other embodiments, notification can be made by way of a user interface instrumentality that is automatically presented to a user to inform the user of a potentially risky third party content source.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2008Date of Patent: December 31, 2013Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Andrew Zeigler, Anantha P.
