Abstract: Systems and methods to identify a viewer's reactions to an advertisement. A viewer's personal computing platforms (e.g., personal computer, cell phone, etc.), for example, may be utilized to identify user actions. Actions identified through such devices may validate that an advertisement was viewed and acted upon. After an advertisement is presented, the viewer may take any of several actions. A viewer may browse for the advertised product, either online or in a physical store. The viewer may ultimately purchase the advertised product. The user may share information about the product with friends. The reaction of the viewer may be monitored, by capturing context data associated with activity performed using the viewer's personal computing platforms for example. This data may then be correlated with metadata regarding the advertisement.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to contextual content translation system. A system may comprise a device to present content to a user, the content being obtained from a content provider (CS). Prior to presentation, a contextual translation (CT) module may augment the content based on the context of the user. The CT module may receive the content from the CS, may receive information about the context of the user from a user data (UD) module and may augment the content based on the user context. Additional information may be provided by a relationship builder (RB) module, as needed, to help determine the correspondence between the content and the user context. Augmenting the content may comprise altering the content (e.g., changing or removing portions of the content) or adding information to the content, the information relating to how portions of the content may correspond to the context of the user.

Abstract: An electronic device is described herein. The electronic device includes a keyboard and a plurality of keys arranged on the keyboard. The plurality of keys may include dynamically customized keys based on usage. The display and function of the customized keys may be enabled through the use of platform components and cloud services on the keyboard. The customized keys may include generic, customer-specific, or dynamically updated images.

Abstract: Technologies for performing a platform transformation on a computing device include transforming a transformable component of the computing device from a first hardware configuration in which a first set of hardware features is enabled to a second hardware configuration in which different hardware features are enabled. The computing device has a first capability when in the first configuration and a different capability when in the second configuration. In performing the platform transformation, the computing device determines a platform transformation build, establishes a communication connection with a cloud-based platform transformation service, and identifies and retrieves relevant platform definitions from the cloud-based platform transformation service. The platform definitions are used in effecting the desired platform transformation.

Abstract: While cloud services can offer processing from personal devices or synthesized data from multiple sources, many users prefer their data to remain private. According to some embodiments, private user data may be processed in the cloud without revealing the user identity to the cloud service provider. Only the user or an authorized agent of the user and the service's hardware platform have access to certain keys. The service application software and operating system only have access to encrypted data.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products that allow for the determination of human presence in a room where content is being presented. The audio that is associated with the content may be captured, along with the audio that is being generated collectively by whatever sources may be in the room including the presentation of the content. Features may be extracted from both the content audio and the room audio. These features may then be compared, and the differences may be quantified. If the differences are significant, then human presence may be inferred.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to a media processing device that can create a personalized passive viewing experience for a user. A personalization engine may determine viewer preferences based on multiple factors including past viewing behavior, web-browsing history, calendar event topics, and email data topics. The viewer preferences may then be formed into a user profile. A content aggregator component may then search multiple content sources for content compatible with the user profile. The content aggregator component may save found content or pointers to the content for later reference. The personalization engine may organize the saved content into a series of individual content items which may be presented on a display. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques related to location-aware application recommendations in wireless devices.

Abstract: Technologies for monitoring data storage location for cloud data include a cloud monitoring server configured to communicate with one or more cloud customer computing devices and cloud service providers. The cloud monitoring server receives monitoring requests from the cloud customer computing devices and retrieves provider information from the cloud service providers. The cloud monitoring server compiles response data based on the monitoring requests and the provider information, and sends response data to the cloud customer computing devices. Cloud customer computing devices may send on-demand monitoring requests and/or continuous, policy-based monitoring requests. For policy-based monitoring, the cloud monitoring server continually monitors the provider information and provides response data when one or more conditions specified in the policy are satisfied. The cloud monitoring server may also make recommendations and provide feedback based on the monitoring requests or the provider information.

Abstract: Techniques for two-way authentication between two communication endpoints (e.g., two devices) using a one-way out-of-band (OOB) channel are presented. Here, in embodiments, both communication endpoints may be securely authenticated as long as the one-way OOB channel is tamper-proof. Embodiments of the invention do not require the one-way OOB channel to be private to ensure that both endpoints are securely authenticated. Since providing a two-way or private OOB channel adds to the cost of a platform, embodiments of the invention provide for a simple and secure method for two-way authentication that uses only a non-private one-way OOB channel and thus helping to reduce platform cost. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments of methods and apparatus for providing an integrated multi-hop routing and cooperative diversity system are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
