If the activity matches one of the identifiers, the local device plays one or more advertisements.

Techniques disclosed herein provide for assisted context determination through the use of one or more servers remote to a mobile device. The one or more servers can receive location and / or other information from the mobile device and select, from a list of possible activities, a smaller list of activities a mobile device user is likely engaged in. The one or more servers can return the smaller list to the mobile device, which can use the smaller list to make a faster context determination. In creating the smaller list, the one or more servers can utilize information regarding a region in which the mobile device is located, which can be updated and modified using information received from mobile devices. Furthermore, the one or more servers can gather and share information from nearby mobile devices, enabling a mobile device to use information from nearby mobile devices to facilitate a context determination.

Embodiments of the present invention are iterative methods that: 1) analyze data from one or more electronic data-sources so as to a) identify or generate an activity (“proposed activity”) of potential importance to a given user, b) calculate one or more ranks that indicate the method's estimate of how important the activity is to the user, c) generate one or more proposed changes to the user's electronic lists of activities (“activity list”) to accommodate the identified activity and, d) determine if the proposed changes should be accepted or rejected; 2) if the proposed changes are accepted, apply the proposed changes to the activity lists, and; 3) update the data-sources in response to whether and how the proposed changes were accepted or rejected.

A source code control architecture. A client user checks out a copy of a source code file to the client using a file checkout process. A client cache maintains a pristine copy of the file, and a client activity list maintains a list of commands executed during the offline mode to effect modifications to the copy. The client cache contains a pristine copy of all source code files that are modified or deleted in a local client workspace. The cache is maintained whether the user is online or offline. When the user is offline, the cache is utilized to facilitate many of the activities that historically would require server connectivity. The command activity list allows a developer to continue changing the source code while offline by automatically recording the executed commands. The offline commands are reconciled to the server, and used to update the server file(s) when the client returns online.

A computer system for automatic replacement of advertisements includes an advertising server for selecting an advertisement based on criteria related to the individual viewer. In particular, advertisements are selected for a given user, based on the past behavior of that specific given user. Advertiser web sites on the network are configured to anonymously report back user activity such as visit dates, purchases, specific product pages visited and the like. Alternative reporting embodiments include email, file transfer protocol and spotlight tags. User activity lists are processed to select candidates for re-targeting. Candidates for re-targeted advertisements are identified based on their own individual past activity, and stored in a list of candidate user ID's. When a candidate on the re-targeted list is identified at any network affiliate web site, a re-targeted advertisement is delivered to the candidate user.

One embodiment includes a future activity list (FAL) maintained within a peripheral bus host controller. The FAL includes information indicating for a number of peripheral bus frames whether those frames will have activity or are null. For frames that will have activity, the host controller performs a system memory read to gather information required to process the active frame. For frames that are null, the host controller does not perform the system memory read. A bus master status bit is pegged (continually set to “true”) by the host controller only when the host controller is processing an active frame. Because the bus master status bit is not pegged by the host controller during null frames, there is greater opportunity for an operating system to enter lower power states.

A system, method, and computer program product handle a power down signal received by a device. Other types of signals, such as suspend or save and sleep, may also be handled. A device, such as a parent device, sends a power down signal to another device, such as a child device. The power down signal is received by the child device and acted upon, based on the activities currently being executed by the child device. Each activity currently being executed by the child device is handled according to its corresponding setting in an activity list. For example, if the child device is currently executing a preferred activity, the power down signal is ignored. A user of the child device may also send an explanation (or explanations) to the parent device.
