Abstract:
A device can receive, from a set of storage devices, first information relating to one or more pilot data plans that are associated with one or more first groups of user devices. The device can receive, from the set of storage devices, second information relating to one or more live data plans that are associated with one or more second groups of user devices. The device can analyze the first information and/or the second information to identify one or more patterns of information. The one or more patterns can include a data usage pattern, a demographic information pattern, a revenue generation pattern, and/or a user interest pattern. The device can perform one or more actions, including generating a new data plan, identifying one or more user accounts as candidates for a new data plan, and/or transmitting, via a network, information relating to the new data plan.
Abstract:
A device may determine a resource identifier for accessing a segment of streaming media content. The device may determine that a signature associated with the resource identifier is not stored in memory. The signature may be generated based on a character string of the resource identifier. The device may request validation of the resource identifier based on determining that the signature is not in memory. The device may receive the signature associated with the resource identifier based on requesting validation. The device may store the signature based on receiving the signature. The device may request the segment of streaming media content using the resource identifier and the signature, stored in memory, to receive toll-free access to the segment of streaming media content.
Abstract:
A device can be configured to receive a transmission control protocol (TCP) packet from a user device and determine, based on data included in a header portion of the TCP packet, that the TCP packet includes a toll-free token. The toll-free token included in the TCP packet can be identified, an entity associated with the toll-free token can be identified, and an action can be performed based on the entity.
Abstract:
A device determines a connection status of a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) communication interface and a wireless Local Area Network (LAN) communication interface, and stores the connection status in a queue. The device waits, subsequent to storing the connection status, for expiration of a time delay; and retrieves, subsequent to the expiration of the time delay, the connection status or another connection status from the queue. The device sends, based on the retrieved connection status or the other connection status, a service validation request to a server associated with the PLMN, and receives from the server, in response to the service validation request, a validation response that authorizes service delivery to the device via a PLMN.
Abstract:
A native content handler in a user device, such as a smart phone, determines whether requested content may by delivered using special handling, such as prioritized or sponsored access. A listener of the content handler determines whether special handling may possibly be applicable to the content, and the listener modifies a universal resource locator (URL) associated with the content to mark the URL. An agent portion of the content handler exchanges data with a validation device to determine whether the user device is actually eligible to receive the content with the special handling. If the user device is eligible, the agent uses data provided by the validation device to obtain the content using the special handling.
Abstract:
A content providing device may receive an indication to stream real-time content. The real-time content may include content captured by the content providing device. The content providing device may identify a dynamic content address, associated with the content providing device, to be used by a content receiving device to access the real-time content. The dynamic content address may identify an address of the content providing device from which the real-time content is to be streamed. The content providing device may provide the dynamic content address. The content providing device may receive, from the content receiving device, a request to access the real-time content, via the dynamic content address, based on providing the dynamic content address. The content providing device may stream the real-time content to the content receiving device, using the dynamic content address, based on receiving the request.

Abstract:
A method includes receiving, by a client device associated with a particular user, product details for video content including a purchase option identifier (ID) for the video content from a video service provider. The method includes requesting, by the client device based on a single sign on (SSO) protected call, a playback uniform resource locator (URL) for the video content from an orchestration layer associated with the video service provider. The method also includes receiving the playback URL, an entitlement ID associated with the particular user for the video content, and the encrypted content. The method includes obtaining a digital rights management (DRM) license for the encrypted content based on the entitlement ID, and decrypting and playing the video content based on DRM rules associated with the video content.
Abstract:
A method, performed by a computer device, may include receiving a search query from a second screen device and determining that a video asset is being streamed to a first screen device associated with the second screen device. The may further include modifying the search query based on one or more keywords associated with the video asset, based on determining that the video asset is being streamed to the first screen device; obtaining search results based on the modified search query; and providing the obtained search results to the second screen device.
Abstract:
A mobile device analyzes data associated with media handled by a cast device connected to a display device. The mobile device causes control signals to be sent, via the one or more communication interfaces, to one of multiple different devices in a room to change an operational parameter associated with the one of the multiple different devices.
