Abstract: A cloud service is configured to receive a request from a mobile device requesting for authenticating the mobile device for receiving personal health data from a wearable device that is registered with the cloud service. In response to successful authentication, the cloud service sends a secondary character to the mobile device, which in turn passes the secondary character to the wearable device. In response to successful verification of the secondary character, the cloud service receives encrypted personal health data generated from the mobile device. The cloud service stores the encrypted personal health data at rest. When the cloud service provides the personal health data to a user, the cloud service decrypts the data and re-encrypts it with a different encryption mechanism, and sends the re-encrypted data to the user.

Abstract: A geolocation extraction and propagation system for assigning a geolocation to a new user of a website is disclosed herein. An implementation of the geolocation extraction and propagation system assigns a geolocation to a website based on content of various web pages of the website as well as geolocations assigned to various users associated with the website. The geolocation extraction and propagation system further propagates the geolocation of the website to the new user by assigning the geolocation of the website to the new user in response to the new user's click on a web page of the website.

Abstract: Architecture having an algorithm that computes visible structures for a user within a distance defined by one or more environmental conditions. An environmental condition such as reduced visibility due to a weather condition such as rain, fog, etc., can be used to define a radius about the user in which possible points of interest (POIs) can be identified as viewable based on current weather visibility data. The altitude of the user is considered when identifying the possible POIs. The user is more likely capable of viewing other structures as POIs when the user is at a higher altitude. If the user is known to be standing on a ridge overlooking a city, this information can be processed by the algorithm to then show more POIs relative to this elevated user location than if the user was at approximately zero altitude. A sight map is generated based on these considerations.

Abstract: Architecture that enables the creation and utilization of a user location profile for a personalized search experience in recommendation systems. The user location profile does not necessitate login of the user to obtain user profile information such as a user ID. Rather, the identifying information associated with the user location can be a network address and/or a device identifier that identifies the particular device from which the user is performing a search or which auto-suggest is being initiated. The user location profile can then be used to identify items about which the user may want information. Once generated, a matching operation is performed between the user location profile and item profiles in a log. The matched item profiles related to the user's location information (the user physical location and/or or user interested location(s)) are identified and recommended to the user.
