Abstract: Systems and methods to facilitate programmatic access to a network-based commerce facility via a network are described. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving a request from a third party application via the network at the network based commerce facility. The request performs an action pertaining to electronic commerce and being one of a plurality of requests recognized by the network-based commerce facility. In responsive to the request, the method performs the action pertaining to the electronic commerce and communicates from a result of the action from the network-based commerce facility to the third party application in a programmatically accessible format.

Abstract: Systems and methods to facilitate programmatic access to a network-based commerce facility via a network are described. A request is received from a third-party application via a programmatic access application, the request identifying a call function that performs, at least in part, an indirect transaction between a network-based commerce facility and a user via a third-party application. Each call function specifies an allowable amount of information to be transferred from the network-based commerce facility. An action corresponding to the call function is performed in response to the request.

Abstract: A seating system for a vehicle includes a seat frame having a lower part for supporting a posterior and thighs of an occupant and a rear part for supporting the posterior and back of the occupant. The seating system also includes a hinge connecting the seat frame to the vehicle such that, in the event of an impact to the vehicle from the rear of the occupant, the weight of the occupant urges the seat frame to rotate in a direction that results in a top portion of the rear part being urged to move in a rearward direction relative to the occupant. The seating system also includes a first structure fixed to the rear part and configured to cooperate with a second structure fixed to the vehicle to reduce forces transmitted to the occupant in the event of an impact to the vehicle.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclose involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a method to facilitate uploading of a plurality of transaction descriptions to a network-based transaction facility utilizing a client-side upload application and a server-side transaction application. In example embodiments, the method may include receiving a batch text file including a plurality of transaction descriptions. The method may further include instantiating a dedicated parsing process for the batch text file, and identifying each transaction description in the batch text file using one or more tags included therein. The method may further including constructing a collection of transaction listings from the identified transaction descriptions, and committing the collection of transaction listings to an active state.
