Abstract: Individualized connectivity based request handling is disclosed. For example, a content source is accessed by a client device and a load balancer executes on a processor to receive a first request based on the client device accessing the content source. A first session variable is set to a first value in a first session and a first latency to the client device is measured. A first plurality of target nodes is selected based on the first session variable. A first plurality of messages is sent to the first plurality of target nodes. A second request is received from the client device after the first session expires, starting a second session. The first session variable is set to a different second value in the second session. A second plurality of messages is sent to a second plurality of target nodes different from the first plurality of target nodes.

Abstract: A system and method for semi-automatic conflict resolution management and communication, achieved by hosting a mediation and management application on a cloud-networked server. The application presents via an app or web-link, an input screen to a complainant's device and uploads the complainant's conflict information to the server. The complainant can also e-file the law suit immediately, or after a pre-determined period of time has passed. The defendant is electronically notified of the impending law and offered an option for mediation through the application; and also an option to counter-claim, using the application's interfaces. If the defendant accepts the mediation option, then a certified mediator (likely crowd-sourced) engages the parties and begins negotiations through the application, to arrive hopefully at a settlement.
