IPC Code(s): G06F3/16, G06F3/04842, G06F40/106, G06F40/134, G10L15/22

CPC Code(s): G06F3/167

Abstract: a media marker mechanism may be used a cloud service to determine up-to-date context regarding playback of a media content stream on a user device. the cloud service may insert a media content item into a media content stream and/or combine media content items into a media content stream. the cloud service may implement the media marker mechanism to tag a content item with metadata that can be read by the user device. the user device can play the streaming media content and, when the tagged content item plays, read the metadata and send it to the cloud service. the cloud service can use the metadata to enrich the media content delivery by, for example, sending the user device a companion image to display, providing a link to make the companion image clickable, handling requests referring to the media content, etc.

20240220305. EXECUTION OF AUXILIARY FUNCTIONS IN AN ON-DEMAND NETWORK CODE EXECUTION SYSTEM_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Niall Mullen of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Philip Piwonka of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Timothy Allen Wagner of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Marc Brooker of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): G06F9/455, G06F9/48, G06F9/50

CPC Code(s): G06F9/45558

Abstract: systems and methods are described for providing auxiliary functions in an on-demand code execution system in a manner that enables efficient execution of code. a user may generate a task on the system by submitting code. the system may determine the auxiliary functions that the submitted code may require when executed on the system, and may provide these auxiliary functions by provisioning or configuring sidecar virtualized execution environments that work in conjunction with the main virtualized execution environment executing the submitted code. sidecar virtualized execution environments may be identified and obtained from a library of preconfigured sidecar virtualized execution environments, or a sidecar agent that provides the auxiliary function may be identified from a library, and then a virtualized execution environment may be provisioned with the agent and/or configured to work in conjunction with the main virtualized execution environment.

20240220461. REMOTE DURABLE LOGGING FOR JOURNALING FILE SYSTEMS_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): James Edward Kinney, JR. of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Khawaja Salman Shams of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): G06F16/18

CPC Code(s): G06F16/1873

Abstract: a journaling file system may implement remote durable logging. updates to a file system may be received, and log records describing the updates may be stored in a locally-accessible file system change log. the update may then be acknowledged as committed. the log records may then be sent to be stored in a network-based data store in a remote version of the file system change log. once it may be determined that the log records are stored in the remote version, storage space for the log records in the local file system change log may be reclaimed. various types of restoration and duplication techniques may be implemented based on the remote version of the change log to restore a file system at an originating device or to duplicate the file system at a different device.

20240221730. MULTI-DEVICE SPEECH PROCESSING_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Rahul Gupta of Waltham MA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Christophe Dupuy of Cambridge MA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Jacob Ryan Stolee of Toronto (CA) for amazon technologies, inc., Clement Chung of Toronto (CA) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): G10L15/16, G10L15/22

CPC Code(s): G10L15/16

Abstract: techniques for partially processing an input on a device and completing processing at a remote system are provided. the device may process an input using an on-device machine learning (ml) model, and determine to cease processing at an intermediary node of the (ml) model based on the output of the intermediary node. based on the output of the intermediary node satisfying a condition, the device may use the output of the intermediary node to generate an output responsive to the input. conversely, if the output of the intermediary node does not satisfy a condition, the device may send the output of the intermediary node to the remote system, so the remote system can use another machine learning model to complete processing with respect to the input.

20240221739. DYNAMIC VOICE SEARCH TRANSITIONING_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Rohit Prasad of Acton MA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Anna Santos of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., David Sanchez of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Jared Strawderman of Santa Clara CA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Sarah Castle of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Kerry Hammil of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Christopher Schindler of Bainbridge Island WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Timothy Twerdahl of Los Altos CA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Joseph Tavares of Kenmore WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Bartek Gulik of Issaquah WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): G10L15/22, H04N21/422, H04N21/478, H04N21/482

CPC Code(s): G10L15/22

Abstract: systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for dynamic voice search transitioning. example methods may include receiving, by a computer system in communication with a display, a first incoming voice data indication, initiating a first user interface theme for presentation at a display, wherein the first user interface theme is a default user interface theme, and receiving first voice data. example methods may include sending the first voice data to a remote server for processing, receiving an indication from the remote server to initiate a second user interface theme, and initiating the second user interface theme for presentation at the display.

20240223618. AUTO-TUNING PERMISSIONS USING A LEARNING MODE_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

CPC Code(s): H04L67/562

Abstract: various embodiments of systems and methods for providing virtualized (e.g., serverless) broker clusters for a data streaming service are disclosed. a data streaming service uses a front-end proxy layer and a back-end broker layer to provide virtualized broker clusters, for example in a kafka-based streaming service. resources included in a virtualized broker cluster are monitored and automatically scaled-up, scaled-down, or re-balanced in a way that is transparent to data producing and/or data consuming clients of the data streaming service.
