摘要： A resource allocation framework is described herein which allocates items (conceptualized as balls) to item-receiving slots (conceptualized as bins) in a domain-agnostic manner. A user instantiates the resource allocation framework to a particular allocation problem by generating a specification that describes the allocation problem in a declarative fashion. Among other features, the specification maps real-world entities to the balls and bins, and describes the constraints associated with the allocation problem. The specification also provides a utilization function that computes the consumption of resources for a proposed assignment of a particular ball to a particular bin. According to another aspect, the resource allocation framework uses many processing elements (e.g., GPU threads, CPU threads, etc.), operating in parallel, to attempt to find a solution to the allocation problem. In this search for a solution, the resource allocation framework operates in any combination of an explore mode and an exploit mode.

摘要翻译： 本文描述了一种资源分配框架，其以域不可知的方式将项目（概念化为球）分配给项目接收时隙（概念化为仓）。 用户通过生成以声明方式描述分配问题的规范来将资源分配框架实例化为特定的分配问题。 在其他功能中，规范将真实世界的实体映射到球和仓，并描述与分配问题相关的约束。 该规范还提供了利用函数，其计算用于将特定球的建议分配给特定仓的资源消耗。 根据另一方面，资源分配框架使用并行操作的许多处理元件（例如，GPU线程，CPU线程等）来尝试找到分配问题的解决方案。 在搜索解决方案中，资源分配框架以探索模式和漏洞利用模式的任意组合运行。

摘要： A platform that facilities preservation of user privacy with respect to location-based applications executing on mobile computing devices is described. The platform registers triggers that are set forth by location-based applications, where a trigger specifies one or more rules and includes a location constraint. The platform causes a sensor on the mobile computing device to output location data, and the platform determines if the trigger has been satisfied by comparing the location constraint with the location data. If the trigger is satisfied, the platform transmits a callback to the application. Accordingly, the application does not receive location data from the sensor.

摘要： A client receives a notification of a user interaction with an information item and creates a record describing this interaction. The client encrypts the record using an encryption key associated with a server. The encrypted record is then communicated to at least one proxy, which in turn forwards the encrypted record to a server. Upon receiving the encrypted record from the proxy, a server decrypts the record using a decryption key and analyzes the decrypted record to identify the information item and the type of user interaction. This information may be used individually or in aggregate for tracking user interests, billing advertisers or information item providers, and/or collecting anonymous information from users.

摘要翻译： 客户端接收到与信息项目的用户交互的通知，并创建描述此交互的记录。 客户端使用与服务器相关联的加密密钥对记录进行加密。 然后将加密的记录传送给至少一个代理，代理又将加密的记录转发到服务器。 在从代理接收到加密记录之后，服务器使用解密密钥对记录进行解密，并分析解密的记录以识别信息项和用户交互的类型。 该信息可以单独地或总体地用于跟踪用户兴趣，记帐广告商或信息项提供者，和/或从用户收集匿名信息。

摘要： Users make online purchases using a virtual currency. A series of secret encryption keys is generated, where each key in the series is associated with a different epoch. A token tracking table is initialized. Whenever real currency is received from a user wanting to purchase tokens, a semantically secure encryption method is used in conjunction with the secret encryption key in the series that is associated with the current epoch to generate a set of encrypted tokens which includes one or more encrypted paid tokens. The set of encrypted tokens is sent to the user wanting to purchase tokens, and each encrypted paid token in the set is entered into the token tracking table, where the entry for each encrypted paid token includes information specifying that the token has not yet been spent and has not yet been encashed.

摘要： Described herein are technologies pertaining to protecting user privacy in connection with attribute-based matching services. A user registers with a platform that includes a plurality of non-collaborating partitions, where registration includes transmitting a message to the platform that indicates that the user has one or more attributes corresponding thereto. Through selective encryption and a communications protocol amongst the partitions, none of the partitions are able to ascertain that the user has the attributes. Acting in conjunction, however, the plurality of partitions perform rich attribute
