  • Publication number: 20240129588
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided in an exemplary embodiment and may include receiving a device status feed and receiving a content impression feed via a processor. The device status feed includes device status elements associated with a display device and the content impression feed includes content impression elements associated with a content impression of a tracked content. The computer-implemented method further includes matching, via the processor, the content impression to the display device by identifiers in the device status feed and the content impression feed. The computer-implemented method further includes detecting, via the processor, a continuous play event in response to the display device being powered off or not tuned to the input connected to the content player device at or near the time associated with the content impression.

  • Patent number: 10167394
    Abstract: Corrosion-inhibiting coating materials comprise a sol-gel and a corrosion-inhibiting compound with at least one disulfide group. The corrosion-inhibiting compound is contained within the sol-gel. Coated and/or laminated structures may include the corrosion-inhibiting coating materials on a metal substrate, and may include a secondary layer (e.g., a paint, etc.) adhered to the coating material opposite the metal substrate. Methods of forming a corrosion-inhibiting sol-gel comprise mixing organo-metallic compounds and the corrosion-inhibiting compound into a sol solution and incubating (e.g., reacting) the sol solution to form the corrosion-inhibiting sol-gel with the corrosion-inhibiting compound contained within the sol-gel. Generally, corrosion-inhibiting coating materials are hexavalent chromium free.

  • Publication number: 20120036007
    Abstract: Systems and methods for creating, managing and optimizing online advertising campaigns include groups of independent human resources working through a marketplace to suggest and optimize appropriate choices for how, where and how much to pay for online advertising. Optimization is achieved through the use of market-based incentives that pay participants based on the quality, quantity and efficiency of the results of their suggestions. The systems and methods enable a marketplace that leverages the inherent knowledge of a large group of people to come up with all search terms, placements, targeting and advertisements that might be relevant to a product, and determine the optimal auction prices for these search terms, placements, targeting and ads on the search engine systems.
