Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, that protect analytics for resources of a publisher from traffic directed to such resources by malicious entities. An analytics server receives a first message that includes an encrypted token and analytics data for a publisher-provided resource. The token includes a portion of the analytics data and a trust score indicating a likelihood that activity on the resource is attributed to a human (rather than an automated process). The analytics server decrypts the token. The analytics server determines a trustworthiness measure for the analytics data included in the first message based on the trust score (in the decrypted token) and a comparison of the analytics data in the first message and the portion of the analytics data (in the decrypted token). Based on the measure of trustworthiness, the analytics server performs analytics operations using the analytics data.

Abstract: The operation of a GPU is controlled based on one or more deadlines by which one or more GPU tasks must be completed and estimates of the time required to complete the execution of a first GPU task (which is currently being executed) and the time required to execute one or more other GPU tasks (which are not currently being executed). Based on a comparison between the deadline(s) and the estimates, the operating parameters of the GPU may be changed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for constructing an itinerary for a user based on articles of multimedia content are disclosed. One computer-implemented method may include: receiving, at the server and from a user device hosting a media streaming platform, an indication of selection by a user of a travel option associated with an aspect featured in an article of multimedia content presented on the media streaming platform; identifying, based on the receiving, a real-world location of the aspect; ascertaining, by the server, contextual information associated with the user; establishing, based on the real-world location of the aspect and the contextual information associated with the user, the itinerary for travel to the aspect; and presenting, subsequent to the establishing, a visual display of the itinerary on the media-streaming platform. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Based on a comparison between the deadline(s) and the estimates, context switching may or may not be triggered.

Abstract: Systems and methods for distributing rewards based on user actions performed in association with multimedia content are disclosed. One computer-implemented method may include: receiving, at the server, an indication of a real-world action performed by a user; identifying, by the server, that the real-world action corresponds to a rewards-based action performed in association with an article of multimedia content present on a media-streaming platform, wherein the rewards-based action at least corresponds to visitation to a geographic location associated with an aspect of the article of multimedia content; determining, by the server, whether performance of the rewards-based action necessitates distribution of a reward to the user, ascertaining, subsequent to determining that performance of the rewards-based action does necessitate distribution of the reward to the user, a type of the reward; and distributing, based on the ascertaining, the reward of the ascertained type to the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for apprising a user of a proximately located aspect-of-interest are disclosed. One method may include: receiving an indication of a geographic location associated with the user; identifying an aspect associated with a multimedia content interest of the user; determining whether the geographic location associated is within a predetermined distance to a known location the aspect associated with the multimedia content interest; transmitting, responsive to determining that the geographic location is within the predetermined distance to the known location, instructions to a user device associated with the user to provide a notification to the user; receiving, at the server, another indication that the user has provided interaction input to the notification; and transmitting additional instructions to another device to perform an action that is based on the interaction input.

Abstract: Embeddable extensions of the functionality of email and calendaring applications are described herein. An originating email and calendaring application formats meeting items to include extensible content, e.g., within the body field of the meeting item. Recipient email and calendaring applications receive the meeting items and, depending on whether they are configured to provide an extended functionality, will either deploy the extensible content item according to the extended functionality or present the extensible content item according to a standardized functionality. The body field includes the extensible content item according to the standardized functionality that is interpretable by configured clients to provide the extended functionality.

Abstract: An earplug extending along an earplug axis may include an outer portion and an inner portion. The outer portion may include a proximal portion extending from a second end region, a distal portion extending from a first end region, and a slant portion therebetween. The outer portion may define an interior space. The inner portion may extend between a first and second end region and may be coupled to the outer portion within the interior space. A distance between an end of the inner portion proximate the second end region of the inner portion and an end of the outer portion proximate the second end region of the outer portion may be greater than a length of the proximal portion of the outer portion measured along the earplug axis.
