PERSONALIZED REAL ESTATE EVENT FEED
A personalized feed system is described herein that provides feeds that are tailored to the preferences of each user of a real estate website or application. A user signs up to receive a stored profile with the website, and the profile includes information such as what geographical regions the buyer is interested in, what types of homes the buyer is looking for, and so on. The personalized feed system uses this information to provide a feed specific to the buyer that notifies the buyer of listings that are of particular relevance to that buyer. The personalized feed system summarizes other real estate events that are relevant to the user in a single time-oriented feed. Buyers receive information about new and/or modified listings, sales, outstanding offers, status of a transaction, and the like, while sellers receive information about sales, new and/or modified listings, open offers, and so on.
COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD, BASE STATION AND USER TERMINAL
In a communication control method, user terminal and processor thereof, a user terminal receives a plurality of identifiers of wireless LAN access points and information on a security key to be used in a wireless LAN communication. The user terminal notifies a base station of first information indicating a successful connection, in response to a successful connection to a predetermined wireless LAN access point indicated by an identifier included in the plurality of identifiers. The user terminal also notifies the base station of second information indicating an unsuccessful connection, in response to an unsuccessful connection to all of the wireless LAN access point indicated by the plurality of identifiers.

MOBILE RFID CONTAINER AND DISTRIBUTION METHOD
A transportable container is enabled with radio frequency identification (“RFID”) technologies to maintain automated inventory levels of those items that are inside the container. The inventory data is communicated via wireless methods, such as cellular or Wi-Fi, to a remote device such as enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system. The ERP system may use the inventory data received from the remote device to automatically update appropriately and generate appropriate records (e.g., container inventory, restocking, invoicing, etc.). In some embodiments, automated RFID scans are triggered when the container is opened and subsequently closed. The container may include RF containment/screening to prevent inadvertent scanning of RFID tags outside of the container. The container may also include a location device to allow the location of the container to be readily determined.
ABR VIDEO WHITE SPOT COVERAGE SYSTEM AND METHOD
A scheme for managing ABR streaming of content in a wireless radio network environment that may have radio white spot areas. Upon determining that the wireless UE device executing an ABR client application is in a radio white spot area, the current ABR streaming session may be suspended at a particular segment. Thereafter, playback of other content locally cached at the wireless UE device may be commenced in lieu of the ABR media segments. When the wireless UE device exits the radio white spot area, the ABR streaming session may be resumed from a point adjacent to the particular segment where the ABR streaming session was suspended.
IDENTIFYING MOBILE DEVICE LOCATION AND CORRESPONDING SUPPORT CENTER LOCATIONS TO PROVIDE SUPPORT SERVICES OVER A NETWORK
A mobile device may receive updates, support and other data from a current data center agent platform. When the mobile device travels to another location the nearest data center agent may be different from the previous agent. A changeover determination must be performed prior to determining whether the new agent should be assigned to the mobile device. One example method of operation may include receiving current location information of the mobile device and identifying a present location of the mobile device and a current service center assigned to the mobile device. The method may also provide determining whether a new service center location at a remote location from the current service center location should be assigned to the mobile device based on predefined assignment criteria.
PRESENCE-BASED DEVICE MODE MODIFICATION
In some examples, a first device may detect the presence of a second device or a particular person and, when a triggering event related to the second device or the particular person applies, the first device may change from a first mode to a second mode.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING FUNCTIONALITY BASED ON DEVICE ORIENTATION
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine a first orientation in which a computing system is positioned. A first functionality can be provided when the computing system is positioned in the first orientation. It can be determined that the computing system becomes positioned in a second orientation. A second functionality can be selected, out of a set of functionalities, based on a current state associated with the computing system. The second functionality can be provided when the computing system becomes positioned in the second orientation.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SEARCHING FOR SHORT-DISTANCE OBJECT
The present disclosure discloses a method and a computer server for searching for a short-distance object and pertains to the field of mobile terminal technologies. The method includes: receiving a short-distance object search request sent by a target terminal; obtaining location information of the target terminal from the short-distance object search request; separately determining, according to the location information of the target terminal, location information of prestored objects for short-distance object search, and multiple preset distance ranges, objects whose distances from the target terminal fall within each distance range, to obtain one or more objects corresponding to each distance range; separately randomly selecting at least one to-be-presented object from the one or more objects corresponding to each distance range; and returning the to-be-presented objects to be presented on the target terminal. By means of the present disclosure, effectiveness of a short-distance object search function can be enhanced.
