Patent number: 10200734Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying objects displayed in a media asset are provided. First and second parental control restrictions associated with first and second users within a perceivable range of a user equipment device are retrieved. The first parental control restriction enables access to content associated with a first authorization level and the second parental control restriction enables access to content associated with a second authorization level. A common authorization level that does not violate the first and second parental control restrictions is identified. A media asset that satisfies the common authorization level is presented to the first and second users in a first form. Supplemental content associated with the media asset that violates the second parental control restriction but does not violate the first parental control restriction is selected. The supplemental content is presented in a second form while the media asset is being presented in the first form.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2017Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: Rovi Guides, Inc.Inventor: Priyanka Sharma

Patent number: 10171412Abstract: A computer receives an out of office status a user has indicated on an email application, the email application using a communications network and determines a quota status of the user based on a previous quota usage pattern and a current quota usage pattern, wherein the quota includes an amount of storage spaced allotted to the user. The computer receives a new email to be delivered to the user and assigns a quota status to the new email. In response to the assigned quota status, the computer determines when the new email should be delivered to the email application of the user. As soon as the sender enters the name(s) of the recipients, the quota usage monitoring engine retrieves the quota status information from the recipients mail box. The engine determines if the new email should be sent out from the senders outbox and dropped to recipients mail box.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2018Date of Patent: January 1, 2019Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Bhavana Paul, Snehal S.

Patent number: 10078701Abstract: A computer detects a question from a participant and determines whether the question is marked to be directed to a particular participant. If marked, the question is directed towards the particular participant, otherwise the question is transmitted to all participants of the web conference. If the computer does not detect an answer to the question from a participant, the participants are reminded of the unanswered question. If the computer detects an answer from a participant, the computer determines whether the answer has been marked by the answering participant as related to another question and answer thread. The computer moves the question and answer to the related thread if marked as related, otherwise the question and answer are saved as a new thread. The entirety of the web conference threads are then saved by the computer in an organized database.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2016Date of Patent: September 18, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Anuradha D.

Publication number: 20140165107Abstract: System and methods for improving interactive grid displays are presented. When the user equipment receives media asset information related to titles of media assets transmitted from media asset sources, an interactive grid is generated and displayed which contains the media asset information. When the user equipment detects a request from the user to update the time interval on the interactive grid display to a new time interval, only the display of media assets related to the preferred media asset sources may be updated to correspond to the new time interval. The display of media assets related to non-preferred media assets sources may not be updated. In some embodiments, the preferred media asset sources may be visually distinguished from non-preferred media asset sources. In some embodiments, the non-preferred media asset sources may be visually distinguished in response to the user input to update the displayed time interval.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2013Publication date: June 12, 2014Applicant: UNITED VIDEO PROPERTIES, INC.Inventor: Priyanka Sharma
