  • Publication number: 20240407051
    Abstract: A system can receive location data from a computing device of a requesting user, where the location data indicates a current position of the requesting user. The system can determine a rendezvous location for the requesting user prior to the requesting user transmitting a service request to the network computer system. The system may then transmit data corresponding to the rendezvous location to the computing device of the requesting user. The system may further periodically receive an update request from the computing device of the user, and for each update request, (i) determine a second plurality of transport providers with the predetermined distance or time from the current position of the user, and (ii) based on respective locations of these transport providers, transmit updated map data to the computing device to indicate an updated rendezvous location on the map interface.

  • Patent number: 11477847
    Abstract: A system can receive, over one or more networks, location data from a computing device of a requesting user, where the location data indicates a current position of the requesting user. The system can repeatedly determine, based at least in part on location data corresponding to a directional heading of a proximate transport provider in relation to the current position of the requesting user, an optimal rendezvous location for the requesting user prior to the requesting user transmitting a service request to the network computer system. The system may then transmit, over the one or more networks, data corresponding to the optimal rendezvous location to the computing device of the requesting user.

  • Patent number: 11006479
    Abstract: A method and system for predictive location selection are described. A network computer system can preselect a service area, prior to receiving a service request from a user, based on the position of the user, a destination, and proximate available service providers, among other factors. In response to the user inputting the destination, the network computer system determines probability scores for predefined service areas based on likelihoods of the proximate available service providers being available at a time when the user submits a service request. The network computer system uses the probability scores to select an appropriate service area and transmits data corresponding to the optimal service area to the user.

  • Patent number: 10659550
    Abstract: Methods and systems for fixed delay storage operations such as lookup and insertion and their applications to advertisement exchange systems are disclosed. In one aspect, a method is provided for inserting a key into a corresponding location in a storage within a fixed delay. The method may determine the corresponding location for inserting the key by a first hashing function and a second hashing function. The method may also utilize an eviction criterion for evicting collided hashed values of the key to ensure the insertion time for operations related to inserting the key to be bounded by a fixed delay, which may be within a fixed time interval, or within a fixed number of steps.

  • Publication number: 20110163927
    Abstract: An amplified antenna includes an antenna element configured to receive over-the-air television broadcast signals and an amplification circuit for amplifying those received signals. The amplified signal is transmitted via an RF output terminal through an RF cable to a second device that is compatible with smart antenna technology as prescribed by the EIC-909 standard, Antenna Control Interface. The amplified antenna further includes an EIC-909 type jack, into which one end of a modular connector cable conforming to the EIC-909 standard is connected. The opposite end of the modular connector cable is connected to the EIC-909 interface jack of the second device. The amplified antenna can then draw electrical power from the smart antenna control module of the second device through the modular connector cable to drive the amplification circuit.
