Abstract: A multi-stage configuration service running in a cloud computing environment receives a transformation request from a client device. Based on a policy identified in the transformation request, the multi-stage configuration service constructs a configuration file containing key-value pairs representing settings of a requested transformation. The settings are set or constrained in accordance with zero or more facets contained in the policy that describe how an application feature is set or constrained in performing a transformation on a source file or files. The multi-stage configuration service determines, in accordance with the policy, whether the configuration file is structurally correct in view of a user-provided overriding property value and either enqueues the configuration file for a publishing agent in the cloud computing environment to perform the requested transformation or returns an error report to the client device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically identifying visually sensible locations in which third-party content can be placed on a web page and configuring the web page to display third-party content at the identified locations. A processor identifies a root element of a web page within which to insert third-party content slots for providing third-party content items. The processor identifies visible content items within the root element and identifies anchorable elements within the root element around which a third-party content slot is insertable. Each of the anchorable elements corresponds to a respective identified visible content item that has bounds that extend from a first predefined region to a second predefined region of the web page. The processor determines that one or more positions relative to the identified anchorable elements are usable for inserting a third-party content slot. The processor generates a list including positions relative to the identified anchorable elements determined to be usable.

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying elements of a mobile application are described. One or more processors can receive a request to identify elements of a mobile application. The processors can map a plurality of views included in the mobile application and associated transitions between the plurality of views. For each of the plurality of views, the processors can determine a category of the view. The processors can then store, for the mobile application, a data structure identifying each of the plurality of views, and for each of the plurality of views, the category of the view, and one more transitions to others of the plurality of views for use in responding to a request for content from the mobile application.

Abstract: Systems and methods of selectively preventing content slots from displaying content items on an information resource are described. Processors receive a request to provide, to a computing device, an electronic document corresponding to an information resource having content slots in which content items are displayed. The processors determine, in response to the request, to provide a modified version of the electronic document including actionable language that prevents at least one of the content slots from displaying content items. The processors identify in the electronic document, the at least one content slot to prevent from displaying content items. The processors modify the electronic document to include a snippet of actionable language in a portion of the electronic document that is executed by the computing device prior to executing actionable language corresponding to the identified at least one content slot. The processors transmit the modified electronic document to the computing device.

The system can self-calibrate the mechanism for counting and dispensing pills by dynamically adjusting the input aperture based upon the stored information representative of the pulse width signal and the amplitude signal.

Abstract: Systems and methods of generating a stable identifier for nodes likely to include primary content of an information resource are disclosed. A processor identifies, on an information resource, a plurality of content-related Document Object Model (DOM) nodes based on a primary content detection policy including one or more rules. The processor determines one or more container nodes containing one or more of the identified content-related DOM nodes. The processor generates, for each of the container nodes, one or more identifiers corresponding to the container node. The processor then determines, for each of the generated identifiers, one or more container nodes to which the identifier corresponds. The processor identifies, from the generated identifiers, a subset of the generated identifiers that correspond only to container nodes that contain the content-related DOM nodes and selects one of the identifiers of the subset as a stable identifier.

Abstract: A self-contained pill dispenser is disclosed. A housing is provided and a hopper for containing a plurality of pills is supported by the housing. A transport tube is operatively connected to the hopper for receiving pills therefrom, the transport tube having an input aperture. A microcontroller is electrically connected to the hopper, the transport tube, and the input aperture. A mechanism accepts a desired number of pills to be delivered by the transport tube by an operator. The microcontroller is adapted to determine whether the actual average number of pills delivered by the transport tube is equal to the desired number of pills specified by the operator. If the actual average number of pills is greater than the desired number, the microcontroller decreases the opening of the input aperture. A mechanism connected to the inlet aperture controls opening and closing operations thereof, pursuant to instructions transmitted by the microcontroller.
