  • Patent number: 11671493
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for a non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions to cause one or more processors to select a set of content items from a content item collection based upon a temporal relevance and a contextual relevance to a period of time, rank the set of content items based on at least one of a content item category or a content item predefined relevance score, partition the period of time into a set of time slots to schedule for rendering content in an application, rank the set of time slots based on device usage analysis for the period of time, and schedule the set of content items into the set of time slots in accordance with the rankings.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7013457
    Abstract: A computer system has an input system and an output system. Program code to be debugged has a plurality of program code statements. The input system is utilized to indicate an error variable in the program code. The error variable has an error value that differs from a desired value. An error set of the error variable is obtained, which is a subset of the statements in the computer readable code. Each statement in the error set is relationally connected to the error variable. A priority value is given to each statement in the error set. The priority values indicate a computed probability that the associated statement is an error source of the error variable. Finally, the output system is used to present each statement in the error set in an ordered manner according to the priority values.
