  • Publication number: 20230072837
    Abstract: A method for processing network data, comprising receiving a data packet at a first processor having a non-transient data memory, storing the data packet in the non-transient data memory, accessing one or more first data fields of the data packet in the data memory, determining whether a device is bandwidth limited as a function of the first data fields being associated with an application, transmitting the data packet to a second processor over a network if it is determined that the device is not bandwidth limited, determining whether the device has reached a limit if it is determined that the device is bandwidth limited, transmitting the data packet to the second processor over the network if it is determined that the limit has not been reached and deleting the data packet without transmitting the data packet if it is determined that the limit has been reached.

  • Publication number: 20070210936
    Abstract: A system and method for generating predictive alerts, such as imminent arrival alerts is disclosed. This invention utilizes the location determination capabilities of GPS-enabled phones and other devices to overcome a common problem: waiting. The capability to determine the position of an object, such as a vehicle, in real time, is coupled with information about its projected route to create predictive alerts. For example, knowing a bus route and its present location, the algorithms of the present invention predict when that bus will arrive at a subsequent stop. Having made this determination, bus riders, who board at this subsequent stop, are alerted to the imminent arrival of the bus at their bus stop. Similar algorithms can be employed for other types of vehicles, such as delivery or repair trucks, and airport transportation.
