Abstract: One or more systems and/or techniques for generating a combined advertisement are described herein. A primary advertisement associated with a primary advertiser may be accessed. A primary attribute for the primary advertisement may be defined (e.g., a car advertisement may target teenage boys). A first spot advertisement associated with a first advertiser may be selected based upon the primary attribute of the primary advertisement (e.g., a car tuning advertisement that also targets teenage boys). A combined advertisement may be generated based upon the first spot advertisement and the primary advertisement. In an example, the combined advertisement may be displayed to a consumer based upon a determination that the consumer corresponds to the primary attribute (e.g., a teenage boy visiting a website). In this way, multiple advertisements (e.g., having similar attributes/goals) may be provided through a single combined advertisement.

Abstract: Described herein are solutions for improving management of viewable impression based display advertising systems. For example, described herein are solutions for improving management of viewable impression based display advertising systems amongst various online marketing channels, such as search engine and guaranteed display advertising (GDA) marketing channels. The solutions can include use of a legacy GDA system and a score (e.g., a ratio) to bridge viewable impression based control and pricing and regular impression based control and pricing.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to concurrency control in log-structured merge (LSM) data stores. In one example, a call is received from a thread for writing a value to a key of LSM components. A shared mode lock is set on the LSM components in response to the call. The value is written to the key once the shared mode lock is set on the LSM components. The shared mode lock is released from the LSM components after the value is written to the key.

Abstract translation: 本教程涉及日志结构合并（LSM）数据存储中的并发控制。 在一个示例中，从用于将值写入LSM组件的键的线程接收到呼叫。 响应于该呼叫，在LSM组件上设置共享模式锁定。 一旦在LSM组件上设置了共享模式锁定，该值将被写入密钥。 将值写入密钥后，共享模式锁将从LSM组件释放。

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for obtaining ad-hoc the spatial layout and setup of installed radio-based indoor tracking systems at particular locations. The systems and methods can be implemented via an installed or web-based application that performs the ad-hoc detection of indoor beacons, which includes detecting the signal strength of all beacons at a location while the user performs a previously configured gesture. From the trajectory of the gesture and the recorded signal strengths, the disclosed systems and methods derive the distance and direction of all beacons, which are laid out in a 2D map. Thus, the present disclosure can implicitly calibrate signal strengths to high-accuracy distances, thereby producing the spatially accurate 2D setup of the previously unknown space, in addition to indoor tracking on a decimeter level, which is efficient and increasingly cost effective for device tracking and advertising purposes.
