The conductive structure includes conductive lines, and conductive bars and vias electrically connecting the conductive lines.

Abstract: A first client request to transmit a text message to a recipient device is received from a client device corresponding with a first account associated with a message exchange system. Responsive to receiving the first client request, a quality score indicating a likelihood that the text message delivered by a respective routing provider will be successfully delivered to the recipient device is determined for each of the routing providers. A first routing provider to deliver the text message to the recipient device based at least on the quality score is selected among the routing providers. The message exchange system causes the text message to be transmitted to the recipient device via the first routing provider.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automated message delivery feedback that includes receiving a plurality of messaging requests to transmit a plurality of messages to a plurality of recipient devices, making a plurality of messaging attempts for each of the plurality of messaging requests for the plurality of messages to transmit the plurality of messages corresponding to a plurality of delivery feedback types, receiving, for the plurality of messages, a plurality of delivery feedbacks of the plurality of delivery feedback types, contextually associating each delivery feedback of the plurality of delivery feedbacks with a corresponding messaging attempt of the plurality of messaging attempts, and updating a delivery status of the corresponding messaging attempt.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automated message delivery feedback that includes receiving a plurality of messaging requests to transmit a plurality of messages to a plurality of recipient devices, identifying subsets of related messaging requests in the plurality of messaging requests, receiving a plurality of delivery feedbacks for the plurality of messages, for each of the subsets of the related messaging requests, determining, based on the plurality of delivery feedbacks, whether to initiate at least one repeated transmission of a respective message to at least one recipient device, and upon determining to initiate the at least one repeated transmission, monitoring a delivery status of the respective message to the at least one recipient device.

Abstract: A customer of a multi-channel message exchange system provides criteria for selecting a service provider using an application programming interface (API). The multi-channel message exchange system selects a service provider that is best suited to deliver each individual message, via a network, for the customer. The message exchange system selects a service provider based on customer criteria, service provider data structures, and other information. The criteria may include a maximum value, a minimum quality score, a maximum latency, or any suitable combination thereof. The data structures may include geographic jurisdictions in which the service provider provides network-based message delivery, channels through which the service provider is willing to deliver messages, or any suitable combination thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for selecting a routing provider that is best suited to deliver each individual message. The message exchange system selects a routing provider based on customer criteria provided by the customer, bids provided by the routing providers and/or performance of the routing providers. The message exchange system ranks the bids based on a ranking value calculated for each bid based on the cost value associated with the bid, the quality score of the associated routing provider and the customer criteria. The message exchange system selects a bid based on the resulting ranking values. For example, the message exchange system selects the bid that is ranked the highest based on the ranking values. The message exchange system then transmits the message to its intended recipient via the routing provider associated with the selected bid.

Abstract: A multi-channel message exchange system selects a service provider that is best suited to deliver each individual message for customers of the message exchange system. The message exchange system selects a service provider based on customer criteria provided by the customer, data structures provided by the service providers, quality scores describing performance of the service providers, channels used by the service providers to deliver messages, or any suitable combination thereof. The message exchange system may select the service provider that provides the best combination of quality of service, value, and delivery channel given the customer's specific needs. The data structures may geographic jurisdictions in which the service provider provides message delivery, channels through which the service provider is willing to deliver messages, or any suitable combination thereof.

Abstract: Described herein are solutions for improving ad retargeting. For example, described herein are solutions for improving ad retargeting amongst various online marketing channels, such as search engine and native advertising marketing channels. The solutions can include adaptive ad retargeting. Adaptive ad retargeting can be beneficial in that it can solve the problem of ineffectively predicting which search terms to associate with advertising, such as in a more conventional process of selecting search terms in a search engine marketing campaign. Instead, for example, these technologies can identify behavior of individuals who have already interacted with certain advertising online, so that when similar behavior occurs by those individuals or other users, ads can be retargeted to such users effectively according to the similar behavior.

Abstract: A semiconductor structure and a method of forming the same using replacement gate processes are provided. The semiconductor structure includes a butted contact coupling a source/drain region, or a silicide on the source/drain region, of a first transistor and a gate extension. The semiconductor structure further includes a contact pad over the source/drain region of the first transistor and electrically coupled to the source/drain region. The addition of the contact pad reduces the contact resistance and the possibility that an open circuit is formed between the butted contact and the source/drain region. The contact pad preferably has a top surface substantially leveled with a top surface of the gate extension.
