Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel graphical user interface (GUI) for simultaneous collecting of nuanced explicit feedback about a current piece of computer readable media from a user and triggering of a transition to a following piece of computer readable media, requiring only a single gesture from a given user. The GUI features a visual element that approximately indicates to a user what numerical explicit feedback score will be used once the gesture interaction is finalized. In some embodiments, the visual element is a colored portion of the GUI where the proportion of the GUI covered corresponds closely with the numerical explicit feedback score. In other embodiments, the visual element consists of a sequence of icons. The numerical explicit feedback, contextualized by an implicit feedback weight and additional data, can be used in the construction of content recommendation profiles for the generation of candidate pieces of computer readable media.

Abstract: A service engine determines whether there is a potential lack of transaction tax compliance in a plurality of jurisdictions for a plurality of entities. The service engine generates and/or transmits tax compliance data which may include information about potential lack of tax compliance of an entity in various jurisdictions based on rules about establishing nexus for purposes of remitting transaction tax in the jurisdictions. The tax compliance data may include a notification about the generation of the information, such as a notification to the entity that there exists a potential lack of tax compliance of that entity in specific jurisdictions. The service engine may update the tax compliance data dynamically and send corresponding notifications, automatically in real time or near real time for the applicable entity as sales of the entity change and/or rules for establishing nexus change for various jurisdictions.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed monitoring network traffic using network monitoring computers. Metrics may be determined based on monitoring network traffic associated with entities in the network such that the metrics may be included in profiles associated each entity. The profiles may be compared with other profiles in a context database based on the metrics included in each profile and each other profile. In response to the profiles being unmatched by other profiles one or more active probes may be performed to collect other metrics that may be used to update profiles. In response to the one or more profiles being matched by the other profiles in the context database, a timestamp associated with the other profiles may be updated to a current time value. Reports that include information associated with the entities and the profiles or the updated profiles may be generated.
