Patent number: 11551115Abstract: A system described herein may allow for the intelligent, dynamic selection of an active tenant for a standalone, multi-tenant environment, such as a multi-operator bus or other vehicle. Intelligent selection may be performed using machine learning and/or other suitable techniques, which may be based on similarity to previous usage by a registered tenant, and may further include analyzing structured and/or unstructured data regarding the environment. In addition, the system may allow different profiles, content, or content templates to be associated with different tenants, thus granting a high level of dynamic flexibility in tailoring the content and/or services provided to the users of the environment based on the selected tenant.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2019Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Inventor: Ashraf Yussouff

Patent number: 9774700Abstract: A network device stores one or more mobile applications. The network device receives a message from another network device, where the message specifies multiple mobile devices to which the one or more mobile applications should be uploaded. The mobile devices include cellular telephones. The network device sends a notification to the multiple mobile devices that the one or more mobile applications are available for download from the network device. The notification includes a short message service (SMS) text message. The network device sends the one or more mobile applications to the multiple mobile devices based on receiving replies to the notification from the multiple mobile devices.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2010Date of Patent: September 26, 2017Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Ashraf Yussouff, Danilo Puseljic, Kanti S. Patel

Patent number: 9317670Abstract: A method includes receiving usage data associated with a user device. The usage data includes information based on at least one usage activity associated with one or more applications on the user device. The method may also include analyzing the usage data based on predetermined criteria and determining a security question and a corresponding answer based on the usage data. The security question and the corresponding answer are stored in an associated database. The method further includes providing the security question and the corresponding answer in response to a request for the security question and the corresponding answer. Access is provided to a system based on an input of the corresponding answer in response to the security question.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2012Date of Patent: April 19, 2016Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing IncInventors: Bhaskar R.
