  • Patent number: 11570078
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for collecting route-based traffic metrics in a service-oriented system are disclosed. A first service in a service-oriented system receives an inbound request from a second service. From the inbound request, the first service extracts, a route identifier representing an upstream route including the second service. The first service stores the route identifier and a counter representing a number of inbound requests with the route identifier that have been received by the first service over a current window of time. The first service sends, to a traffic metric collection system, a metric message comprising the route identifier and the counter. Traffic metric data is determined by the traffic metric collection system using the metric message from the first service and one or more additional metric messages from one or more additional services. The traffic metric data indicates one or more flows of requests through the services.

  • Patent number: 11564013
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a history of videos that were viewed on a video delivery system as a first sentence in a sequential order and a target video as a second sentence as input to a prediction network. The prediction network analyzes representations for the history of videos and a representation of the target video. The prediction network generates a session representation based on bidirectionally analyzing a sequence of the first representations and the second representation. The method uses the session representation to determine whether to recommend the target video.

  • Patent number: 11552555
    Abstract: In some examples, a circuit includes a state machine. The state machine is configured to operate in a buck state in which the state machine is configured to control a power converter to operate in a buck mode of operation at a first frequency. The state machine is configured to determine that a switch time of the power converter has decreased to within a threshold amount of a minimum switch time for the power converter. The state machine is configured to, responsive to the switch time of the power converter having decreased to within the threshold amount of the minimum switch time for the power converter, transition from the buck state to a reduced frequency buck state in which the state machine is configured to control the power converter to operate in the buck mode of operation at a second frequency that is less than the first frequency.
