Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system obtains one or more metrics associated with user interaction with a set of content items in a member segment of a social network. Next, the system ranks the set of content items by the one or more metrics. The system then generates a content pool for the member segment based on the ranking of the content items. Finally, the system creates a content feed from the content pool for presentation to a user in the member segment.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system obtains a set of content pools for a user, wherein each content pool in the set of content pools includes a set of content items associated with user activity in a member segment of a social network. Next, the system calculates a set of probabilities of clicking the content items in the content pool. The system then uses the probabilities to order the content items with other content items from other content pools into a content feed for the user. Finally, the system presents the content feed to the user.

Abstract: Display module mounting apparatus and methods provide mounting features enabling ease of installation and service. The apparatus may have one or more releasable frame couplers and pivoting releasable frame couplers coupled to a display module having a display plane defined in relation to a substrate. One or more adjustable linkages may adjustably define a standoff distance between the display plane and a support frame to which the module may be mounted by the mounting apparatus. Concave and convex adjustments to the display plane may be made. Operation of pivoting action to tilt the display plane enables installation, removal, and serviceability of large displays constructed with a tiled plurality of display modules.

Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of display modules, assemblies of display modules, and systems of display modules. Display modules have a plurality of light emitting elements arranged in a predetermined pattern and providing a highly uniform visual effect. Alignment and complementary alignment features enable the alignment of adjacent display modules and the creation of large displays from a plurality of aligned display modules. Features to grip and retain a support frame are provided. Modules and systems have features that permit installation and removal from the front side of the display. A system of modular support frames works cooperatively with the display modules, adapting to different mounting environments, and thereby providing large modular displays with desirable properties.

Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of photo-luminescent display systems and photo-luminescent visual elements creating eye-catching displays of visual advertising or marketing messages that are very effective at generating interest, engagement, and loyalty in the viewing public. Photo-luminescent pigment containing visual elements are illuminated by one or more remotely located emitters at a first wavelength that is outside the human visual spectrum. In response, the visual elements then radiate at one or more wavelengths within the human visual spectrum. Additional features control unwanted reflections and unwanted transmission of radiation at the first wavelength. Additional features control the uniformity of radiation of one or more wavelengths within the human visual spectrum.

Abstract: The method of compressing and decompressing an executable program, can be executed by a microprocessor or interpreted by an interpreter of an integrated circuit device: instructions are reformatted into the format of an initial set of instructions of said program for obtaining instructions in the format of an intermediate set of instructions; repetition templates in the program are determined and, for each repetition template, a pair is defined, formed of said repetition template and of an instruction in the format of a set of instructions; intermediate instructions are replaced by compressed instructions and the links of the compressed program are modified; the compressed program is stored in a memory of the device; and the compressed program is decompressed and the initial instructions are executed by said microprocessor or interpreted by said interpreter. The invention applies, in particular, to the integrated circuits of embedded devices.

Abstract: The present invention describes a reinforcing filler for rubber comprising the synergistic combination of precipitated silica with a pore structure defined by a maximum between 25 nm and 35 nm, a total pore volume between 1.3 cm3/g and 1.6 cm3/g, and a compression factor between 1.3 10?2 and 2.3 10?2 MPa?1, and at least one crystalline alkaline silicate corresponding to the general formula of the crystalline alkaline silicates, said crystalline alkaline silicate being swelled and/or layered in the presence of an organic cationic compound in the form of ammonium salt of the +NR4 type according to the formula [CnH2n+1N(CH3)3]+. The rubber formulation obtained by this reinforcing filler composition does present a great reduction of energy dissipated in the tread without compromising the abrasion resistance and elastic modulus properties.
