Patent Applications by Amazon Technologies, Inc.

20240211206.SYSTEM COMMAND PROCESSING_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Andres Felipe Borja Jaramillo of Shoreline WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., David Robert Thomas of Woodinville WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Shrish Chandra Mishra of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Shijian Zheng of Issaquah WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Alberto Milan Gutierrez of Edmonds WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): G06F3/16, G06F9/30, G06F40/10, G06F40/40, G06N5/04, G10L13/04, G10L15/22, G10L15/26, G10L15/30

CPC Code(s): G06F3/167

Abstract: techniques for routing a user command to a speechlet and resolving conflicts between potential speechlets are described. a system determines an intent of an input command. the system also receives context information associated with the input command. the system determines speechlets (e.g., speechlets and/or skills) that may execute with respect to the input command given the intent and the context data. the system then determines whether conditions of routing rules, associated with the speechlets, are satisfied given the context data. if the conditions of only one routing rule are satisfied, the system causes the speechlet associated with the routing rule to execute with respect to the input command. if the conditions of more than one routing rule are satisfied, the system may determine a speechlet to execute with respect to the input command based on the speechlets' priorities in a list of speechlets and/or based on potential output data provided by the speechlets.

20240211230.IN-VEHICLE SYNTHETIC SENSOR ORCHESTRATION AND REMOTE SYNTHETIC SENSOR SERVICE_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Brett Francis of Redwood City CA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Nicholas Jay Lefler of Canton GA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): G06F8/61, G05B19/418

CPC Code(s): G06F8/61

Abstract: a system comprising one or more computers implements a synthetic sensor service configured to deploy synthetic sensors to an in-vehicle computing device implementing a synthetic sensor orchestration environment for a vehicle. the synthetic sensor orchestration environment determines a placement decision for a new synthetic sensor to be added to the vehicle based on one or more annotations included in a synthetic sensor package for the new synthetic sensor. the synthetic sensor service and respective synthetic sensor orchestration environments implemented in various types of vehicles provide a consistent way to remotely add additional synthetic sensors and/or other functionality to different types of vehicles after the vehicles have already been put in use by respective owners or operators of the vehicles.

20240211461.CUSTOMER-REQUESTED PARTITIONING OF JOURNAL-BASED STORAGE SYSTEMS_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Timothy Daniel Cole of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., John Michael Morkel of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Tate Andrew Certain of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Christopher Richard Jacques de Kadt of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Artem Danilov of Kirkland WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Andrew Wayne Ross of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Allan Henry Vermeulen of Corvallis OR (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): G06F16/23, G06F16/27, G06F16/28

CPC Code(s): G06F16/2315

Abstract: a materialization configuration request is received via a programmatic interface from a client of a journal-based multi-data-store database. the request indicates a partitioning rule to be used to select, for respective writes indicated in committed transaction entries of a journal, the materialization node at which the writes are to be stored. a control plane component of the database verifies that a set of materialization nodes corresponding to the partitioning rule has been established, and initiates the propagation of writes from the journal to the materialization nodes by respective write appliers.

20240212687.SUPPLEMENTAL CONTENT OUTPUT_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Mark Conrad Kockerbeck of Laguna Beach CA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Song Chen of Irvine CA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Aditi Srinivasan of Riverside CA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Ryan Idrogo-Lam of Irvine CA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Jilani Zeribi of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., John Botros of Newport Beach CA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): G10L15/34, G06F16/632, G06F16/635, G06F16/68, G10L15/183

CPC Code(s): G10L15/34

Abstract: techniques for generating a personalization identifier that is usable by a skill to customize output of supplemental content to a user, without the skill being able to determine an identity of the user based on the personalization identifier, are described. a personalization identifier may be generated to be specific to a skill, such that different skills receive different personalization identifiers with respect to the same user. the personalization identifier may be generated by performing a one-way hash of a skill identifier, and a user profile identifier and/or a device identifier. user-perceived latency may be reduced by generating the personalization identifier at least partially in parallel to performing asr processing and/or nlu processing.

20240214460.LOCALITY BASED CONTENT DISTRIBUTION_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Swaminathan Sivasubramanian of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., David R. Richardson of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc., Bradley Eugene Marshall of Bainbridge Island WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): H04L67/52, H04L41/12, H04L67/01, H04L67/02, H04L67/06, H04L67/10, H04L67/1074, H04L67/1097, H04L67/53, H04L67/55, H04L67/562

CPC Code(s): H04L67/52

Abstract: a system and method for content distribution are provided. a content provider generates a network topology having one or more subnetworks made up of content sources. the content provider segments content, such as applications, into segments for distribution. the content provider then distributes the content such that for each identified subnetwork, each content segment is distributed to a content source. subsequent, client computing device requests for content can be serviced by selecting a content source in a particular subnetwork selected for delivering the requested content to the client computing device to minimize traffic flow of the requested content through the nodes of the distribution network.

20240215061.OPPORTUNISTIC SWITCHING AMONG COMMUNICATION CHANNELS TO TRANSMIT AN UPDATE TO AN EDGE DEVICE_simplified_abstract_(amazon technologies, inc.)

Inventor(s): Marco Argenti of Seattle WA (US) for amazon technologies, inc.

IPC Code(s): H04W72/542, H04W40/02

CPC Code(s): H04W72/542

Abstract: an update service of a provider network transmits an update to an edge device by opportunistically selecting one communication channel (or transmission bandwidth) over another (e.g., based on analysis of performance metrics associated with the channel) to transmit different portions of the update to the edge device. for example, the update service may choose the channel with highest available bandwidth or the channel with the lowest failure rates. the update service may receive indications from the edge device that transmission of different update portions was successful. in some cases, the edge device itself may instead perform the selection of one communication channel over another (e.g., based on analysis of channel metrics) to receive different portions of the update at the edge device. the edge device may transmit indications that the edge device successfully received different portions of the update.
