Abstract: A content provider may provide public access to a content item set, but may be unable to achieve sufficient revenue to sustain the administrative costs and ongoing development of the content item set. Instead, the content provider may develop relationships with one or more referrers (e.g., search engines.) When a user requests a content item, the content provider may determine whether the request results from a referral by a sponsoring referrer, and based on this determination may provide either a full version or a limited version of the content item. The referrer benefits by providing its users with free access to the content item set, which may be unavailable from non-sponsoring competitors, and in exchange may share advertising revenue with the content provider. This arrangement achieves sustaining sponsorship of the content provider while extending full and free access to the content item set to users of sponsoring referrers.

Abstract: A method scheduling outgoing communication in a mobile device is provided. The method includes receiving a signal quality profile for an area in which the device is located. The method further includes receiving a signal from a user application stored on the device that requests the mobile device to make the outgoing communication. Additionally, the method includes determining a current location, a speed, a direction, and a signal quality associated with the device and determining whether the signal quality is above a certain threshold. If not, the method includes predicting a future time at which the signal quality will be above the threshold based at least on the current location, the speed, the direction, the signal quality, and the signal quality profile. Finally, the method includes scheduling the outgoing communication from the mobile device at the future time.

Abstract: A system that selects items from a plurality of items is described herein. The system includes a receiver component that receives a plurality items for an activity in a sequence having an order. A selection component sequentially evaluates each of the items in the sequence in the order received by the receiver component and for each item being evaluated determines that an evaluated item is to be uniquely selected out of the plurality of items immediately upon evaluation thereof. The selection component selects the item such that when the value of the item is higher than the values of all previous items in the sequence, any position in the sequence has a substantially similar probability as any other position to have the item selected.

Abstract translation: 这里描述了从多个项目中选择项目的系统。 该系统包括接收器组件，其接收具有顺序的序列中的活动的多个项目。 选择组件按照接收器组件接收的顺序顺序地评估序列中的每个项目，并且对于正在评估的每个项目，在评估之后立即确定被评估项目将在多个项目中被唯一地选择。 选择组件选择项目，使得当项目的值高于序列中所有先前项目的值时，序列中的任何位置具有与要选择项目的任何其他位置大致相似的概率。

Abstract: Consumer stores typically sell products at a retail profit, which covers the cost of pre-sale, consumer-influencing services regarding the products (e.g., discussions with sales associates, product demonstrations, and consumer inspections of the products.) However, consumers may utilize these services but may purchase selected products from other retailers that do not provide pre-sale services, and that may accordingly offer lower prices. This tactic may cause lost sales for consumer stores, and eventually store failures. Instead, the consumer store may charge the supplier an influence fee for consumer-influencing services based on a per-service price established between the supplier and the consumer store and consumer influence metrics tracked by a computer. The supplier may recoup the influence fee in the wholesale cost of the product, thereby distributing the shared benefit of the influencing services of the consumer store across all retailers and enabling a sustainable business model for providing the consumer-influencing services.
