Patent number: 10528970Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed for identifying and analyzing online advertising performance data. Systems may receive data records that include data events characterizing interactions between users and online advertisement campaigns. The online advertising data records may include timestamp data characterizing creation dates for data events. The systems may generate intermediate data objects by partitioning at least some of the online advertising data records based on a first plurality of temporal data categories representing different units of time. Each intermediate data object may be associated with a temporal data category of the first plurality of temporal data categories. The systems may generate performance data objects by partitioning the intermediate data objects based on a second plurality of temporal data categories that are different than the first temporal data categories.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2014Date of Patent: January 7, 2020Assignee: Amobee, Inc.Inventors: Bin Song, Khaled Elmeleegy, ShaoSu Liu, Santanu Kolay, Lawrence Lo

Publication number: 20150371256Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed herein for correlating offline and online user activity. The methods may include receiving a first communication including first event data. The first event data may characterize an interaction between a mobile device and a location-based transmitter. The location-based transmitter may be associated with a transmitter identifier and a location. The methods may also include updating, using one or more processors, a first user profile based on the first event data included in the first communication. The first user profile may characterize information associated with a user of the mobile device. The first user profile may include one or more data values representing a plurality of events and actions associated with the user. The first user profile may be capable of being used to provide advertisements to the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2014Publication date: December 24, 2015Applicant: TURN INC.Inventors: Neil Shah, Ali Ahmed, Lawrence Lo

Patent number: 9129069Abstract: A digital rack interface pod (DRIP) that is able to establish a communications link between a remote access appliance and a server having a USB port and a video port, to facilitate a keyboard/video/mouse (KVM) session between the server and the appliance. The DRIP is also able to establish a communications link between the appliance and an Ethernet port of the server that is associated with a service processor (SP) of the server. In this manner the DRIP is able to route data from the SP of the server to the appliance as well as communications from the appliance to the SP Ethernet port of the server. The DRIP is able to intelligently determine which packets of information received from the appliance are intended for the SP Ethernet port of the server and routes those packets to the SP Ethernet port of the server.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2011Date of Patent: September 8, 2015Assignee: AVOCENT HUNTSVILLE CORP.Inventors: Lawrence Lo, Karl Mills, Adam W. Lew, Mehmood Nurmohamed

Patent number: 8533764Abstract: A video transmitter can adaptively alter its transmission rate to plural receivers which receive video via multicast transmission. While the transmitter is initially in the “no tuning state”, the need for a video tune-up state change can be determined. If so, then the state can be set to “tuning up” and the retransmission rate can be increased. However, if “tuning-up” is no longer required, the state returns to the “no tuning” state” Likewise, the need for a video tune down slate change can be determined and the retransmission rate can be decreased. However, if the state is set to “tuning down” and “tuning down” is no longer required, the state is set such that “tuning down” is no longer true and the state returns to the “no tuning” state.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2008Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Inventor: Lawrence Lo

Publication number: 20090241148Abstract: A video transmitter can adaptively alter its transmission rate to plural receivers which receive video via multicast transmission. While the transmitter is initially in the “no tuning state,” the need for a video tune-up state change can be determined by calculating if the current generated A/V retry transmission rate is greater than the video tune-up start threshold and if it was triggered more than the video tune-up interval ago. If so, then the state can be set to “tuning up” and the retransmission rate can be increased by the video tune-up step, as shown in FIG. 7. However, if the state is set to “tuning up” and it is determined that the current generated A/V retry transmission rate is greater than the video tune-up stop threshold, then “tuning-up” is no longer required, and the state is set such that “tuning up” is no longer true such that the state returns to the “no tuning” state.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2008Publication date: September 24, 2009Inventor: Lawrence Lo

Publication number: 20090158371Abstract: A group identifier can be used to assign blocks of addresses to the various groups of transmitters and receivers communicating on a single wired LAN. For example, a form-based control (e.g., a text entry box, a radio button, a drop-down box, a list box or a combo box) can be provided in a form controlled by a web server internal to the transmitter. The form enables a configuring user to specify to which of multiple (e.g., 4) groups a transmitter and its receivers (e.g., specified by MAC address) are going to belong. The transmitter thereafter can select its own IP address (based on the group number) and the known range of IP addresses available for its receivers. Once the IP addresses have been assigned to the transmitter and receivers, the transmitter can send (1) control data to the receivers at their receiver-specific IP addresses and (2) AV data to their multicast address.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2008Publication date: June 18, 2009Inventor: Lawrence Lo
