Publication number: 20240098047Abstract: In a group chat-based instant messaging method, a message is received from a first messaging application of a first user in a first messaging group. The first messaging application is associated with a first messaging service. When the message is to be announced to all group members of the first messaging group, whether the first user is authorized to send the message is determined based on identity information of the first user. Based on the first user being authorized, protocol conversion on the message is performed based on a second messaging protocol of a second messaging service to output the message in a first preset announcement style for messages announced to all group members. The converted message is transmitted, via a second messaging server, to a second messaging application corresponding to one of the plurality of group members in the first messaging group.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 28, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: Tencent Technology (Shenzhen) Company LimitedInventors: Tieming HUANG, Bin LI, Li LIN, Yijun LUO, Tanglei PAN

Patent number: 11754407Abstract: A transport arrangement system operates to provide a service, which can receive a transport pool request from a rider. The transport pool request can specify a set of parameters, including a pickup location and a drop-off location. A candidate set of transport providers are identified that satisfy one or more criterion, including a criterion of proximity relative to the pickup location. One of the candidate set of drivers is selected to provide a transport pool for the rider.

The adsorptive loading of elements onto the fiber and the efficiency of elution therefrom is substantially 100%, in multiple cycles of adsorption/elution. The novel fiber/extraction process is rapid, lending it to a continuous recovery operation. A portion of the CN groups of may be converted to carboxylate groups by reaction with NaOH.
