Provided is a method for processing live-streaming data. The method includes: displaying at least one live-streaming plan of a live-streaming room; determining a target live-streaming plan in response to a select operation on the at least one live-streaming plan; acquiring plan content of the target live-streaming plan in response to an announcement set operation on the target live-streaming plan; and generating a live-streaming announcement of the target live-streaming plan based on the plan content of the target live-streaming plan.

Systems and methods are disclosed that allow for providing targeted asset/advertisements for broadcast-wide programming feeds. The systems and methods allow network platforms to select among asset options provided with a content stream and/or replace assets in the content stream. In one arrangement, after selecting an asset, the asset is inserted into the content stream and the content stream is disseminated to subsequent network platforms (e.g., local platforms). At this time, the local platforms may insert local assets into the content stream in predetermined local asset insertion spots.

Two directional data exchange between a mobile navigation system and a listing system enables pricing models and analytics that are responsive to trips initiated in response to location based listings on the navigation system. The data exchange may include information to present the listing to the user, track whether the user elected to begin navigating to the destination based on that listing, intermediate status as the user progresses towards the destination, and an indication that the user arrived at the location. The data may be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the listing in bringing customers to a physical location associated with the listing. The data may be applied in a performance-based pricing model by which pricing for the listing is based in full or in part on the number of trips initiated and/or completed as a result of the listing.

A method performed by a cloud-based connected radio service associated with broadcast radio stations includes: receiving cellular network information and broadcast radio audio stream information from multiple client radios over wireless data connections with the multiple client radios; upon determining that the multiple client radios are all simultaneously accessing a same unicast audio stream associated with a particular broadcast radio station among the broadcast radio stations over a same cellular network based on the cellular network information and the broadcast radio audio stream information, configuring the same cellular network to convert a designated audio stream associated with the particular broadcast radio station to a multicast audio stream; and upon receiving a multicast address for the multicast audio stream from the same cellular network, sending the multicast address to the multiple client radios over the wireless data connections to enable the multiple client radios to access the multicast audio stream.

A system (1000) is disclosed including a resource allocation optimization (RAO) platform (1002) for optimizing the allocation of resources in network (1004) for delivery of assets to user equipment devices (UEDs) (1012). The RAO platform (1002) determines probabilities that certain asset delivery opportunities (ADOs) will occur within a selected time window and uses these probabilities together with information concerning values of asset delivery to determine an optimal use of asset deliveries. In this regard, the RAO platform (1004) received historical data from repository (1014) that facilitates calculation of probabilities that ADOs will occur. Such information may be compiled based on asset delivery records for similar network environments in the recent past or over time.

A media-content augmentation system includes a processing system that receives input data in the form of temporally-varying events data. The processing system resolves the input into one or more categorized contextual themes, correlates the themes with metadata associated with at least one reference media file, and then splices or fades together selected parts of the media file, thus generating as an output, a media product in which transitions between its contextual themes are aligned with selected temporal events in the input data. The temporarily-varying events take the form of a beginning and an end in the case of a sustained feature, or a specific point in time for a hit point. A method aligns sections in digital media files with temporally-varying events data to compose a media product. The system augments a sensory experience of a user by dynamically changing and then playing selected media files within the context of the categorized themes input to the processing system.
