20130117062 | ONLINE RESOURCE ALLOCATION ALGORITHMS - Various embodiments provide online algorithms for resource allocation. In one or more embodiments, requests for resources from a service provider are received stochastically. For each request, different options for satisfying the request are evaluated based in part upon shadow costs (e.g., unit costs) that are assigned to resources associated with the different options. One of the options may be selected by optimizing an objective function that accounts for the shadow costs. Resources for the selected option are allocated to the request and an adjustment is made to the shadow costs for remaining resources to reflect differences in rates for allocation and/or consumption of the resources. Thereafter, resources may be allocated to a subsequent request using the updated shadow costs and the costs are adjusted again. By updating shadow costs iteratively in this manner, an increasingly more accurate analysis of the objective function is achieved. | 05-09-2013 |
20130117454 | OFFLINE RESOURCE ALLOCATION ALGORITHMS - Various embodiments provide offline algorithms for resource allocation. A known set of “offline” requests may be matched to available resources using an online resource allocation algorithm that models the offline resource allocation problem as though the requests were received stochastically. Requests may be scaled and then sampled to provide random, stochastic input for the online resource allocation algorithm. For each request, resources are allocated to the request by evaluating multiple options based upon shadow costs assigned to resources associated with the different options. After each request is processed, an adjustment is made to the shadow costs for remaining resources to reflect differences in rates for allocation and/or consumption of the resources and the updated shadow costs are used for a subsequent request. A scaled resource allocation determined using sampled requests in this manner may be scaled back up to obtain a solution for the offline resource allocation problem. | 05-09-2013 |

20150206195 | AUCTION MECHANISM WITH DECOUPLED SELECTION AND RANKING - An auction mechanism that decouples advertisement selection from advertisement ranking is described herein. A page to be displayed on a client computing device has a plurality of advertisement positions. Responsive to receipt of data that is indicative of content to be included on the page, a plurality of bids corresponding to a respective plurality of advertisements are received, wherein each bid has a respective bid value. Further, a respective quality score is computed for each advertisement responsive to the receipt of the data. A subset of advertisements are selected from the plurality of advertisements based upon their respective bid values. Subsequently, the selected advertisements are ranked and assigned to the advertisement positions based upon their quality scores, which are independent of their bid values. | 07-23-2015 |

20120018590 | Bernoulli Micro Plane - A low cost method for motorized small indoor toy airplanes that significantly boosts the lifting forces resulting from Bernoulli Principle, and as such providing for a significantly reduced flying speed of that airplane, improved flight control, smaller turning radius and ability to fly in a much smaller room. | 01-26-2012 |
20120028535 | One Sensor Direction Finder - A low cost method making use of a single sensor only, to detect the relative direction of a light source. Most suitable for toys and low cost gadgets. | 02-02-2012 |
20120115394 | Closed-Loop Adaptive Two-Way Remote Controller - An adaptive remote control unit that automatically reads the changing real-time physical orientation of its remote controlled object, or other of its momentary features, and henceforth transmits commands to the remote controlled object that are a function of such reading as well as a function of user's own input control, for the purpose of achieving a unique pre-defined movement pattern, or otherwise adjust the behavior of the object in relations to its real time situation. | 05-10-2012 |
20120122367 | Advanced Light Beam Remote Control - Remote control of a toy helicopter by projecting a modulated Infra-Red light spot on a wall. The spot is beamed from a hand-held remote control unit and aimed by the user in different directions. The helicopter follows that spot by a controlled ascend or descend if the light spot is above or below the helicopter respectively, as well as turns right or left in the direction of the light spot. | 05-17-2012 |
