Abstract: Inventive techniques for forming unique compositions of matter are disclosed, as well as various advantageous physical characteristics, and associated properties of the resultant materials. In particular, particles comprising polymer matrices are characterized by having carbon disposed within the polymer matrix structure thereof. The carbon is primarily, or entirely, present at interstitial sites of the polymer matrix, and may be present in amounts ranging from about 15 wt % to about 90 wt %. The carbon, moreover, forms covalent bonds with both atoms of the polymer matrix and other carbon atoms present in, but not part of, the matrix. This facilitates substantially homogeneous dispersal of the carbon throughout the resultant material, conveying unique and advantageous properties such as strength-to-weight ratio, density, mechanical toughness, sheer strength, flex strength, hardness, anti-corrosiveness, electrical and/or thermal conductivity, etc. as described herein.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to generating telecommunication network measurements. In one aspect, a method includes presenting, by a client device, a digital component that, when interacted with, initiates a call by the client device to a phone number specified by the digital component. A trusted program stores, in a presentation event data structure, a presentation event data element specifying the phone number and resource locator for a reporting system to which reports for the digital component are sent. The trusted program detects a phone call by the client device to a given phone number. The given phone number is compared to one or more presentation event data elements stored in the presentation event data structure. A determination is made that the given phone number matches the phone number specified by the digital component. In response, an event report is transmitted to the reporting system.

In response to detecting that the client device is within one of the one or more physical locations, an event report is transmitted to a reporting system for the digital component. The event report indicates that a location event for the digital component has occurred.

A request to generate a click verification token can be received from a first application executing on a client device. The request can include data for a first set of parameters for a first interaction and a first message authentication code (MAC) set. If the first MAC set matches a second MAC set, which is generated using some of the data included in the request, the click verification token can be generated. The click verification token can be provided to the first application, which in turn can provide this token to a content verification system. The content verification can use this token to verify whether the first interaction is an actual human user interaction.
