Publication number: 20250139284Abstract: A software development kit for providing targeted messages from a remote device to a client device through an app installed on the client device operates without any personal information leaving the client device. One or more Bloom filters are created and are mapped to specific app bundle identifiers. Matched identifiers are resolved against the set of Bloom filters to targeted messages based on user identifiers. Because the processing is performed locally on the client device, no personal information leaves the client device. Real-time measurement is performed by firing conversion events to an integrated mobile network, providing analysis of the effectiveness of the targeted messaging without providing any personal information to any remote device.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2023Publication date: May 1, 2025Inventors: Milos Viktorovic, Niels Baarsma, Ian Meyers, Joseph Shannon Duncan

Patent number: 12284282Abstract: Targeted messages are sent from a server to a client device through an app installed on the client device, but which operates without sending any personal data from the client device to any remote device. Bloom filters are created from data about the target audience and loaded in the app. User logins are resolved against the Bloom filter to targeted messages based on user identifiers. In this way, the processing to deliver a targeted message is performed on the client device, rather than on any remote device, and thus no personal information leaves the client device. Real-time view-through and click-through measurement is performed by firing conversion events to an integrated mobile network.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2021Date of Patent: April 22, 2025Assignee: LiveRamp, Inc.Inventor: Ian Meyers

Publication number: 20240323190Abstract: A system enables a publisher to specify access to people-based identifiers in a cookieless authentication environment. By giving the publisher the ability to grant access to these identifiers only to trusted parties, data leakage is greatly reduced. Permission is controlled by encrypting the same identifiers using one of a plurality of keys, so that only those parties to whom the publisher desires to give access associated with a particular key may access the information. An application programming interface operated by a resolution vendor accepts publisher identifiers and, after resolution of those identifiers into persons, returns envelope data structures that contain encrypted identifiers for persons. A sidecar process handles decryption and re-encryption of the envelopes as needed to support the identification environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 8, 2022Publication date: September 26, 2024Inventors: Ian Meyers, Julien Weber, Travis Cadorette, Stevan Boddanovic

Publication number: 20220337562Abstract: A system for serving targeted advertisements while protecting privacy receives an item of personally identifiable information (PII) from a person using a browser. The item of PII may be, for example, a telephone number or email address. The item of PII is hashed, then used to look up a node in an identity graph corresponding to the person. The node contains a link uniquely associated with the person, which is returned in an encrypted form. An envelope is created that contains the link, and is set as a first-party cookie on the person's browser. When the person uses the browser to visit another website the envelope is decrypted, and the link is separately encrypted using a different method for each of a plurality of DSPs to which the link is sent. The DSPs are used to set a display advertisement on the user's browser, the process occurring in real time.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 9, 2020Publication date: October 20, 2022Inventors: Azim Sonawalla, Ian Meyers, Andrew K.

Patent number: 11474996Abstract: System and methods are provided for rapid provisioning of data management services. A user creates a data management service through a user interface. The creation of the data management services is initiated by the user without any programming by the user in a scalable, rapidly provisioned environment. The data management service natively supports the CRUD model (create, read, update, and delete) for data entities, metadata, references, as well as other features, such as search capabilities and/or data lineage. Once the data management service has been provisioned, the service scales as usage of the service increases. The data management service is an abstraction layer and the organization that created the service can remain unaware of the underlying implementation details of the service.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2019Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Ian Meyers, Maheshdatta Mishra

Patent number: 10997000Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed to implement a multi-region event publishing system to broadcast heterogeneous events across regions. In embodiments, an event publisher at a first location receives an event to be published and writes the event to a first data store of a multi-location replicated data storage system. The event publisher may generate metadata for the event including a source location, destination location(s), and a timestamp. The event is replicated to a second data store of the multi-location replicated data storage system at a second location. The second data store generates a change stream to an event receiver. The event receiver filters the second change stream based on the event metadata, and provides the filtered events to registered event consumers.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2018Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Ian Meyers

Patent number: 7398882Abstract: A packaging tray for transport and storage of product includes a tray portion and a plurality of cover portions. The tray portions is formed from a first sheet material and defined by a plurality of removably connected retail portions. Each retail portion includes a plurality of pockets formed therein, each adapted to receive the product. Each retail portion further includes an outer edge defined substantially about a periphery of the retail portion and at least one tab extending from the outer edge. Each at least one tab is removably connected with at least one tab of an adjacent retail portion along the line of weakening. The plurality of cover portions are formed from a second sheet material and each is configured for removably engagement with one of the retail portions.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2004Date of Patent: July 15, 2008Assignee: Keyes Fibre CorporationInventors: Patrick Barrett, Ian Meyer

Publication number: 20040103973Abstract: In the present method for producing a planar element (2) for car bodies in differential construction, which includes an external skin (4) and at least one stiffening means implemented as planar, profiles (8) and profile nodes (10) being provided in a predetermined arrangement on the external skin (4), in a first step the stiffening means is glued to the external skin (4), in a second step profiles (8) and profile nodes (10) are arranged and joined into a frame, at least partially using a cold joining method, and in a third step the frame is joined to the external skin (4) on the side of the stiffening means, at least partially using a cold joining method. High planar buckling resistance of the plate panels is achieved through these measures.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2003Publication date: June 3, 2004Inventors: Hartmut Carstensen, Peter Buchwald, Ian Meyer Neelachmann
