The apparatus includes a resource configuration unit, a resource abstraction unit and a resource sending unit, wherein the resource configuration unit is configured to obtain information of inner-network element transmission resources and to receive a service operation instruction, and to search the resource abstraction unit for an internal path corresponding to the service operation instruction to obtain an operation command for a transmission resource; the resource abstraction unit is configured to perform abstract representation on the information of the transmission resources to obtain internal paths; the resource sending unit is configured to send the operation command for the transmission resource to a corresponding board. A method for managing inner-network element transmission resources is also described.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining a bid modifier value include determining, for one or more sets of keywords used in a campaign, a predicted conversion rate for a first device type and a predicted conversion rate for a second device type. Predicted campaign-level conversion rates are determined for the first and second device types using the predicted conversion rates for the one or more sets of keywords used in the campaign. A ratio is also determined between the predicted campaign-level conversion rate for the first device type and the predicted campaign-level conversion rate for the second device type. The ratio may be used as a bid modifier value that relates bids for the first device type to bids for the second device type.

Abstract: A method for maximizing a conversion value for content provided by a content provider based on a fixed budget includes receiving a total budget of the content provider and a set of keywords for the content provider to bid on. The method further includes determining a conversion value and a cost for each keyword. The method further includes calculating a bid for each keyword based on a comparison of the conversion value for each keyword and the cost for each keyword.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for classifying changes to resources. In one aspect, a method includes obtaining a first version of a resource. The method includes obtaining a second version of the resource, the second version representing a change to the first version of the resource. The method includes determining feature data that describes changes from the first version to the second version. The method includes creating a feature vector from the feature data. The method includes providing the feature vector to a support vector machine, the support vector machine trained to classify the second version of the resource as having one of changes requiring a change notification or changes not requiring a change notification. The method includes classifying the second version as requiring a change notification or not requiring a change notification based on output from the support vector machine.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for document update generation. In one aspect, a method includes identifying pairs of content nodes where a first content node in each pair is in a first hierarchical representation of a first document and a second content node in each pair is in a second hierarchical representation of a second document, in which the content nodes represent visible content and in which identifying comprises selecting the first and second content nodes such that a cost based on structural differences between the first and second hierarchical representations and a content difference between the first and second content nodes is minimized; associating rendered layout information related to the first content node with the second content node; and determining whether to generate a snippet for the content difference between the first and second content nodes based on the rendered layout information.
