Patent number: 11511196Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for predictive preloading of game data are described. In some implementations, a method can include using a machine learning model of player data to predict which games (or game-related data assets) to begin preloading prior to a user making a game selection. Once the user makes a selection, any preloading not related to the selection can be terminated. Thus, during the time period when the user is viewing available game selections, a given number of selections can begin to be preloaded based on predictions from the machine learning model. The preloading can help reduce latency from game selection by the user to game start time.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2021Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: Roblox CorporationInventor: John Kerr

Patent number: 11516432Abstract: A system controls a teleconferencing device by detecting a current operating state of the teleconferencing device and detecting a contact with a touch-screen device associated with a selection of an audio and a visual input, a selection of an option from a list of options that performs an action in the teleconferencing device, or a transferring of a virtual object between a plurality of devices. The system continuously senses a gesture across the touch-screen device by identifying a first contact with the touch-screen, a distance of a continuous contact with the touch screen, and a last contact with the touch-screen. The process executes a command associated with the selection of an audio and a visual input, the selection of an option from a list of options that performs an action in the teleconferencing device, or the transferring of a virtual object between a plurality of devices.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2021Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: DTEN, Inc.Inventors: Wei Liu, Jin Guo, Sally Tung

Patent number: 11509697Abstract: Some embodiments relate to a method implemented by a first terminal for setting up a session with a second terminal. An identifier of a session server is obtained at least from a subscriber device in the first terminal which comprises a subscriber identifier and an operator identifier. A session request and an identifier of the second terminal are sent to the server. At least one instruction is received from the server and a message comprising a first set, relative to the first terminal, of at least one characteristic parameter of the requested session is generated in accordance with at least one instruction received and sent to the server. A message is received from the server comprising a second set of at least one characteristic parameter of the requested session, the second set relating to the second terminal and having a non-zero overlap with the first set.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2021Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: ORANGEInventor: Bruno Chatras

Patent number: 11509624Abstract: A local area network tracking system and method of use is described herein. An exemplary embodiment of the system comprises a central tracker server that registers and tracks third-party vendor kiosks when the kiosks connect to a retail store local area network. The unique tracker server system is configured to efficiently route web application traffic on the same retail store local area network. The tracker server stores a local IP address and a unique identifier for each vendor kiosk connected to a particular retail store network. Customers connected to the network are routed to the tracker server to obtain the IP address for a suitable vendor kiosk, with which the customer can establish a direct wireless connection to that kiosk over the retail store network. The system described herein can be implemented without modifying any aspect of the retail store LAN infrastructure.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2019Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: KODAK ALARIS INC.Inventor: Mark R. Repka

Patent number: 11507617Abstract: Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for extracting topics from a corpus of exchanges. The system generates vector representations of utterances of an entity common to the exchanges and uses the vector representations to cluster the utterances. The system labels the clusters and uses the labeled clusters to generate an exchange label sequence for each of the exchanges, where each exchange label sequence corresponds to a sequence of utterances generated by the entity. The system processes the exchange label sequences to generate one or more subsets of the utterances, where each of the subsets corresponds to a particular topic.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2019Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Zachary Alexander, Na Cheng

Patent number: 11509483Abstract: According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provide a method of electronically signing content. Content to be signed and an attribute sharing item are presented at a signing device associated with a signer. It is detected that the signer has accessed the attribute sharing item to provide one or more identity attributes which uniquely identify the signer. It is also detected that the signer has initiated a signing action at the signing device. The signing action and the identity attributes are transmitted to a signing service which is configured to create an electronic signature including encrypting the content to be signed and the one or more identity attribute.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2019Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: Yoti Holding LimitedInventor: Alttaf Hussain

Patent number: 11507585Abstract: An event processing system for distributing a continuous query, and processing events in an event stream, is disclosed. The system can synchronize timestamps across all partitions by adding a heartbeat propagator component propagating a heartbeat signal for silent partitions. The system can further include a timestamp tracker component that tracks the maximum observed timestamp across all partitions for each batch, and sends this to each partition. The system can distribute partitions of the events to the worker nodes, and instruct a heartbeat propagator component to generate a heartbeat for a first worker node corresponding to an event in a different partition. The system receives outputs from the worker nodes and combines these into a single result corresponding to a continuous query. The system can further implement a timestamp tracker to select a highest timestamp value of a previous batch, and send the value to the worker nodes.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2020Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Sandeep Bishnoi, Hoyong Park, Subhrajyoti Choudhury, Yathish Gatty, Devendra Jain, Santosh Kumar, Prabhu Thukkaram

Patent number: 11507342Abstract: An electronic device, computer program product, and method prioritizes communication between participants in a communication session. A controller configures the electronic device to identifying participants, each respectively using a second electronic device to participate in the communication session. The controller associates a priority rank for each of the participants. The controller monitors for an indication from each of the second electronic devices that a corresponding participant among the participants is attempting to speak to the other participants during the communication session. In response to receiving two or more indications, the controller compares the respective priority ranks of the participants corresponding to the two or more indications. The controller selects the audio stream received from the second electronic device of the particular participant having a highest priority. The controller presents the audio stream to the other participants.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2021Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: Motorola Mobility LLCInventors: Amit Kumar Agrawal, Olivier D Meirhaeghe, Rahul B.
