Patent number: 9497148Abstract: Methods and systems to predictively determine to perform a computing activity based on contextual information. Context-based criteria are defined based relationships between user-computing activity and contextual information, and are evaluated based on updated contextual information to determine whether to perform the computing activity. Context-based criteria may be defined to predictively identify content to be transferred/synchronized/updated and/or deleted, and/or to select one or more of multiple devices to receive content. Content may be selectively synchronized across devices of a user and/or shared with another user(s). Context-based criteria may relate to, without limitation, location, activity, computer-usage patterns, motion, and/or schedule of a user, device location, user/device proximity, relationships amongst content, users, and/or devices. Context-based computing environment parameters may be provided to pre-loaded content on device (e.g.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2014Date of Patent: November 15, 2016Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Jim S.

Publication number: 20160191591Abstract: Technologies for crowdsourced media streaming include a number of mobile computing devices configured to capture media streams and transmit the media streams to a media server. The media server associates the media streams with metadata describing the media streams, including metadata describing an event captured in the media stream. The media server also processes the media streams to generate additional metadata. A number of client computing devices may submit media stream requests to the media server, and the media server contemporaneously streams matching media streams to the client computing devices as the media streams are captured by the mobile computing devices. The client computing devices may transmit feedback information relating to the media stream to the source mobile computing device via the media server. The client computing devices may display the media streams alongside or overlaying other media such as a broadcast media event. Other embodiments are described and claimed.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2013Publication date: June 30, 2016Inventors: Tomer RIDER, Shahar TAITE, Jim S. BACA
