Abstract: Techniques are provided for dynamically creating index files for streaming media based on a determined chunking strategy. The chunking strategy can be determined using historical data of any of a variety of factors, such as Quality of Service (QoS) information. By using historical data in this manner, index files can be generated using chunking strategies that can improve these factors over time.

Abstract translation: 提供了基于确定的分组策略来动态地创建用于流媒体的索引文件的技术。 可以使用诸如服务质量（QoS）信息的各种因素的历史数据来确定分块策略。 通过以这种方式使用历史数据，可以使用可随时间改善这些因素的分块策略来生成索引文件。

Abstract: Techniques described herein provide for an advertising processing engine service to act as an intermediary between client applications and advertising networks. The advertising processing engine service can provide an interface with which the client can interact, via an application programming interface (API) or directly through the use of a standardized language, thereby allowing client applications to receive advertisement data without the need to be customized to communicate with specific advertising networks. On the other hand, the advertising processing engine service can receive requests from clients and communicate these requests to advertising networks in the corresponding language and/or format they require.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically chunking for delivery instances are provided that automatically implement chunking strategies based on one or more chunking considerations related to a request for a media file. These systems and methods may be part of a larger media servicing network that can be used to, among other things, process uploaded media content, provide it for streaming/downloading, and collect metric information regarding the streaming/downloading. The disclosed systems and methods provide for receiving a request having a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) and providing an index file to implement chunking strategies based on chunking considerations associated with the request.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method and system used for searching among a plurality of entities on a computer network by a user. A computer server in communication with the computer network can include a database with a storage mechanism, a rule set, and an interaction calculation engine. The user can search for a first entity using a location calculation engine in communication with the computer network. The location calculation engine can locate the first entity and determine and display at least a second portion of the plurality of entities relevant to the first entity.
