Publication number: 20240135028Abstract: A system and method of dynamic search result permission checking. A system that provides end users the ability to search an index (i.e., Shinydocs Index) built from content from one or multiple source repositories, and only display results for which the user has sufficient permissions at source to view. User credentials are validated “on the fly”, such that these checks are performant across a multiple of possible back-end repositories sequentially or simultaneously. The resultant search results from the Index may be sourced from many disparate repositories, each of which have their own unique permission structure (to view individual items). A method for handling permissions in multiple repositories in a secure (yet performant) fashion in order to only display search results that the end-user is allowed to view based on source system permissions.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Jason William David CASSIDY, Khalid MERHI, Mark KRAATZ, Robert HASKETT, Benjamin BARTH, Darryl MCCUTCHEON, Gorgi TERZIEV, Jesse SHEATHER, Davey SLIMMON, Peter VANLEEUWEN, Scott WOODEND

Patent number: 11438654Abstract: Media-presentation-conscious scheduling protocols are disclosed that may associate a geographical location containing a thing with an identifier of the thing and allow later-found media works that pertain to the identifier to be presented at a mobile device before the device reaches a waypoint of the location. Alternatively or additionally, such protocols may respond to a predicted connectivity impairment of a traveling device by obtaining supplemental content to mitigate a predicted capacity shortage. Alternatively or additionally, such protocols may interrupt live stream content, insert on-demand content, and later return to live stream presentation automatically.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2019Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: RHAPSODY INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Brian Ringer, Heng Cao, Kenneth W. Murphy, Darryl William Wood, Gregory Welliver, Matthew James Eccles

Patent number: 10423943Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for generating a set of recommended media works based on an identified seed media work. The seed media work is used to identify a set of co-occurring media works, which are defined as media works that have been intentionally interacted with within a predetermined time window as the seed media work by a single user. After the co-occurrence set is created, it is ranked and filtered. Media works identified in the co-occurrence set may then be selected based on their ranking.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 2016Date of Patent: September 24, 2019Assignee: RHAPSODY INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Darryl William Wood, Kenneth Wendell Murphy, Brian Clark Ringer, Eric David Knutson, Heng Cao, Nicholas Robert Soman, Peter Ira Aeschliman
