Methods and systems are provided herein for recommending a media asset based on a geographic location at which that media asset was frequently consumed. For example, the system may monitor a location, such as New York City or Times Square, to determine popular media assets watched there, such as The Avengers, and when another user visits New York City, the system may then notify the user that the movie, such as The Avengers, is associated with New York City. The system stores the geographic locations associated with the media asset in the database based on the consumption of the media asset so that other users may be notified which media assets are associated with each geographic location.

Disclosed are various embodiments for assigning user interface widgets to page slots associated with a page template and detecting expired content generated by the widgets. A user interface widget can generate markup language for placement within a page slot. The markup language can be analyzed to determine whether it contains a URL incorporating a content identifier. An analysis of the content identifier can be performed to determine whether the content identifier corresponds to expired content.

A system and method are presented that integrate date-related data from a variety of disparately defined data sources into a single user interface. Date-related data is defined in tactics that are associated with types. The types are associated with additional field definitions that allow for a single tactic data entity to be created for a variety of tactic types, with different tactic types being associated with different sets of additional fields. Cues are also used to automate the generation of date-related tactics. Cues can be triggered by the creation of trigger tactics of a predetermined type, or through an event in a subscribed database. Individual tactics record estimated and actual expenses for budgeting purposes. Finally, plan hierarchies allow for the integrated viewing of date-based tactics defined at different levels of the hierarchy.

A server for a digital signage control system communicates with a plurality of display devices, a first terminal, and a second terminal. The server further stores, for each display device, an identifier, attribute data, and owner data, and a plurality of content items. The server receives from the first terminal, a display request to display a content item on a display device having attributes that match display criteria included in the display request, transmits an approval request to the second terminal identified based on the display device owner data, and upon receiving from the second terminal approval to display the content item on the display device, store the content item in association with the identifier corresponding to the display device, and control the display device to display the content item in accordance with the display request.

A computer implemented system including a primary user device operable to access and execute computer instruction code that, when executed, causes generation and sending of notifications to one or more secondary user devices, a database of previously collected data in respect of users of the secondary user devices where the one or more secondary user devices operated by users other than users of primary user devices, and a matching engine, wherein generated notifications are matched, by the matching engine, to the user of a secondary user device according to analysis of the previously collected data regarding the user of the secondary user device such that notifications sent to the secondary user device are relevant to the user of the secondary user device.

Systems and methods are presented for managing the cadence (e.g., frequency or rate) that electronic promotion correspondence is sent to a consumer. A system may access a target cadence indicator associated with a consumer that indicates of a target rate for sending electronic promotion correspondence to the consumer. The system may also determine an actual cadence indicator for the consumer over a predetermined period of time and analyze a potential electronic promotion correspondence for sending to the consumer. The system determines whether to send the electronic correspondence to the consumer based on the target cadence indicator, the actual cadence indicator, and the analysis of the electronic promotion correspondence.

The current invention relates to a computer-generated method for optimizing placement of advertising content across multiple different devices. The system can allocate advertising campaigns and plans to various inventory types based on the probability of accurate consumer matching. Consumer matching can be achieved by generation of look-alike models in a consumer's device graph to predict future consumption behavior. The system includes an interface through which an advertiser can access relevant information about inventory and success of a given placement.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method that includes obtaining media content, analyzing the media content for an advertisement insertion space, receiving a request for the media content from equipment of a user, obtaining a profile for the user, determining a location of the user, determining a time of a delivery of the media content, determining an advertising insertion for the advertising insertion space based on the profile of the user, the location of the user, and the time of the delivery of the media content, and inserting the advertising insertion into the media content in place of the advertisement insertion space to generate modified media content. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Methods and systems for presenting online content elements based on information known to a service provider. One of the methods is a method for presenting online content at a communication apparatus, the communication apparatus being assigned an identifier. The method comprises: obtaining information that pertains to a profile associated with the identifier and provided by a service provider involved in assigning the identifier to the communication apparatus; determining an online content element to be presented at the communication apparatus based on the information; and causing the communication apparatus to present the online content element. Another one of the methods is a method for facilitating determination of online content to be presented at a communication apparatus. Servers for implementing the methods are also provided.

In a recurring revenue management system, it can be determined that a unit of data received at the recurring revenue management system from an external client data system lacks at least one data aspect necessary to create a fully populated instance of the data object. An instance of a skeletal object is created in a repository of the recurring revenue management system, and the instance of the skeletal object is partially populated with at least some data extracted from the received unit of data. The instance of the skeletal object is made available for use in the recurring revenue management system. The instance of the skeletal object is then further populated with additional data extracted from a second unit of data received by the recurring revenue management system. Related methods, systems, and computer program products are also described.
