Abstract: Systems and methods for onboarding a user of a travel booking system, program, or application. In particular, a secure traveler profile may be created by establishing user identity information, establishing user payment information, creating a travel profile, and linking to a user calendar. In some embodiments, user identity and/or payment information may be verified or confirmed. Creating a travel profile may include receiving information related to a user's travel preferences and/or travel priorities. Additionally, the onboarding process may include establishing a communication link with a user's calendaring application or program, such that new calendar entries may be communicated to the travel booking system, program, or application.

Abstract: Systems and methods for searching for and/or booking travel services, such as air transportation, overnight accommodations, ground transportation, and/or other travel services. In particular, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for searching for and/or booking travel based on a user's digital calendar entries. As a particular example, where a user creates a calendar entry using a calendaring application on a user device, such as a smartphone, systems and methods of the present disclosure may be configured to evaluate the calendar entry, determine whether travel services may be needed, and build a curated travel itinerary comprising suitable travel services to meet the user's needs for the calendar entry. The travel services may be selected based on travel parameters extracted from the calendar entry, user preferences, and/or user priorities.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for searching for and/or booking travel for a multiple-destination trip based on a user's digital calendar entries. Where a user creates calendar entries for events at different destinations, systems and methods of the present disclosure may be configured to evaluate the calendar entries, determine whether travel services may be needed, determine whether the entries relate to, and/or may be combined into, a same trip, and build a curated travel itinerary comprising suitable travel services to meet the user's needs for the calendar entries.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, detecting that an IMSI associated with a first SIM is provisioned onto a first mobile device and designating the IMSI into an available state. Further embodiments can include determining an expiry period for the available state. Additional embodiments can include purging the IMSI from a plurality of mobile network devices and designating the IMSI into a reclaimable state in response to an expiration of the expiry period. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus are provided for time-based image display. In an aspect, a method includes accessing two or more images; obtaining, for each of the images, a timestamp for the image; generating, based on the timestamps for each of the images, a slideshow schedule, the slideshow schedule specifying, for each of two or more time windows, one or more of the images for display during the time window; identifying, based on a current time, a current time window from the two or more time windows; and causing display of the one or more images specified by the slideshow schedule for the current time window.

Abstract: An annular friction liner for a bridging clutch of a torque converter. The liner has a radially extending friction surface engageable with a reaction surface of the torque converter. The friction surface has a plurality of circumferentially spaced grooves extending from a radially inner edge of the friction surface to a radially outer edge thereof. Each groove extends along a serpentine path and has a series of contiguous groove sections which interconnect end-to-end at a substantial angle to one another. This groove path provides a mixing module for promoting turbulence.
