  • Publication number: 20230015413
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for determining an estimate of available user impressions on a network, comprising receiving a request for an estimate of available user impressions for viewing one or more media elements on a network, the request comprising one or more viewer demographic group limitations. A request may be received to include deterministic users and probabilistic users in the estimate of available user impressions. A number of deterministic users may be determined based on query results from a deterministic user data set. A number of probabilistic users may be determined based on query results from a probabilistic user data set, and the estimate of available user impressions may be determined based on the number of deterministic users and the number of probabilistic users.

  • Patent number: 11010150
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and programming for performing system updates are described herein. In a non-limiting embodiment, a first device from each of a plurality of rolls of devices may be downscaled, where each roll of devices is configured with information associated with that roll. Each first device may be updated with a new version of the information associated with a corresponding roll of devices, and each first device may be upscaled to the corresponding roll of devices. One or more additional devices from each of the plurality of rolls of devices may be downscaled, and, in parallel, each of the one or more additional devices may be updated with the new version of information associated with the corresponding roll of devices. Each of the one or more additional devices may then be upscaled to the corresponding roll of devices.

  • Patent number: 10080952
    Abstract: Described herein include various embodiments of a binding assembly that assist with coupling a user's foot to a sport board. A foothold or binding upper that captures a user's foot can be coupled to a part of the binding assembly thereby enabling the binding assembly to secure the user's foot to the sport board. The binding assembly can include a chassis that has at least two connector receptacle that each allow an attachment feature (e.g., mounting screw) to extend therethrough and secure the binding assembly to the sport board. Each of the connector receptacles can be angled such that a longitudinal of the connector receptacle is positioned at an angle relative to a top surface of the sport board.
