Abstract: In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a memory of a dispatch server and a processor of the dispatch server communicatively coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to receive an indication of a blockchain transaction to monitor; the blockchain transaction having not yet been finalized by a blockchain. The processor is configured to store the indication of the blockchain transaction in a state monitor cache communicatively coupled to the blockchain such that a state monitor queries the blockchain for a status of the blockchain transaction based on the indication of the blockchain transaction being stored within the state monitor cache. The processor is configured to provide the status of the blockchain transaction to a user in response to receiving an indication of the status of the blockchain transaction.

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.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to a system and method for facilitating an affiliate marketing relationship. According certain to embodiments of the present invention, an affiliate marketing optimization system enters into an affiliate marketing relationship with a plurality of merchants. In addition, the affiliate marketing optimization system establishes relationships with publishers thereby acting as in intermediary between the publishers and the plurality of merchants. As a result, a publisher may better monetize web traffic by utilizing the affiliate marketing relationships in place between the affiliate marketing optimization system and the plurality of merchants.

Abstract: A system and method for using information in an auxiliary data system to enhance the capability of automated testing of graphical user interface (GUI) based applications. Embodiments of the invention establish a method to map auxiliary data to automated tests of the GUI in order to map out all tests that need to be created, which tests need to be changed as this auxiliary data changes, and how each automated test needs to be updated to handle these changes.

Abstract: A method for Internet performance monitoring and analysis includes, by at least one data collection agent (DCA), a DCA being a computer operating on the Internet and configured with software that is controlled remotely from another location on the Internet, responsive to a request from another location, said request including an indication of a web page, collecting web page object-level data with said at least one DCA; measuring access to web page objects in the web page; and transmitting measured information about the access to the web page back to the location that made the request. The measuring includes one or more of: capturing non-speed based information including errors during download, source of content by IP address, and type of content that an object represents, and parsing and recognizing other objects referenced in a content returned that also need to be retrieved. The measuring utilizes an HTTP protocol to interact with a web server.

Abstract: A system for internet performance monitoring and analysis includes at least one agent connected to a computer network and adapted to collect the object-level data and to measure the access parameters while the collection of the object-level data occurs. Appreciably, the system may a plurality of agents located at distributed points throughout a global computer network. Each agent is adapted to collect the object level data and to measure access parameters while the collection of the object-level data occurs. The collective measurements when taken at different points throughout the network provide functional tools to assess the distribution of the remotely readable documents.
