  • Publication number: 20180196845
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing interaction data in response to a query from a content provider are provided. One method includes receiving a query from the content provide including a plurality of parameters relating to interactions with a content item of the content provider. The method includes retrieving a set of log file records using the included plurality of parameters and generating a current set of records identifying interaction data with the content item. The method includes comparing the current set of records to a previous set of records generated by the one or more processors for a previous query from the content provider and determining a similarity between the current set of records and the previous set of records. The method includes modifying, if the similarity is above a threshold, the current set of records and providing the modified set of records to the content provider.

  • Publication number: 20180124141
    Abstract: A stream hosting server generates anchors associated with a live stream, each anchor specifying a timestamp of the live stream that represents an opportune moment for a user to join the live stream. When a viewer client device sends a request to join the live stream, the stream hosting server analyzes the anchor list and selects an appropriate anchor. The stream hosting server provides the live stream to the viewer client device beginning at the timestamp specified by the anchor. Thus, the viewer client device can begin displaying the live stream at the opportune moment specified by the anchor. The stream hosting server also creates video on demand content that include a completed live stream as well as anchors associated with the live stream. The viewer client device can display the VOD beginning at different anchors.

  • Publication number: 20170318065
    Abstract: A method for reducing bandwidth needed for streaming media content. The method includes identifying, by the streaming media server, a subset of a plurality of media content items having a portion of media data in common and extracting, by the streaming media server, the common portion from a first media content item of the subset; generating, by the streaming media server, a common media package comprising the extracted common portion, providing, by the streaming media server to a client media device, the common media package, and receiving, by the streaming media server from the client media device, a request for an item of content. The method also includes selecting an item of content from the subset; and transmitting, by the streaming media server to the client media device, an identification of the common media package and an identification of a chunk of the selected item of content subsequent to the common portion.

  • Patent number: 8834337
    Abstract: One embodiment described herein is a sheet of material 200 formed into accurate and high value structures by implementing a plurality of elongated slots 202 that are obliquely placed along a fold line 204 which create one or more strips 206 consisting of a length w, a width s and an angle f to said fold line 204. The strips 206 are put into a state of plastic deformation through torsion which is controlled via the combination of said length w, width s, and angle f elements to create accurate, unique, complex and high value products or forms. The embodiments described allow for a greater degree of freedom of sheet material types, a greater degree of sheet material thicknesses, while simplifying implementation. This and other embodiments are also enclosed.
