20110252107 | Systems and Methods for Sending an Electronic Mail Communication at a Selected Time Based on the Recipient's Time Zone - Methods and systems for sending an email so recipients receive it at a selected time in respective time zones. Information about recipients may determine times zones. Information may include zip code, IP address, or identification of a server or service provider serving a recipient. Information may be based on a recipient's activity such as determination of a time zone in which more emails are received than any other, or having a highest weighted average (based on frequency of email receipt and recent history). The email is sent so recipients receive it at the selected time in the respective time zone. Recipients may be grouped by time zones. After sending the email to the recipients, open/click rates of the email by the recipients by the determined time zones may be determined and displayed on a time zone map. | 10-13-2011 |
20140372363 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PREDICTING A PROPOSED ELECTRONIC MESSAGE AS SPAM BASED ON A PREDICTED HARD BOUNCE RATE FOR A LIST OF EMAIL ADDRESSES - Methods and systems for predicting a proposed electronic mail (email) for an email campaign to be sent to a list of email addresses received from a sender is spam. A hard bounce rate is predicted for the list of email addresses based on hard bounce rates calculated for respective email addresses on the list. If predicted hard bounce rate exceeds a threshold, the proposed email is deemed spam and sender may be informed. If predicted hard bounce rate falls within range of the threshold, proposed email may be sent to less than all the email addresses on list. If an acceptable number of the sent emails are received, the email may be sent to remaining email addresses on list. Prior to sending proposed email, the list of email addresses may be compared to purchased lists of email addresses. If there is a match, the proposed email may be deemed spam. | 12-18-2014 |
20140379420 | Methods and Systems for Finding Connections Among Subscribers to an Email Campaign - Methods and systems to find connections among subscribers to a particular electronic mail (email) newsletter.

A subscriber to a particular email newsletter may receive email newsletter from other sources. A determination is made as to what other email newsletters of each subscribers of the source receive from other sources. The other email newsletters of each subscriber on the list of email addresses of a source are compared to the other subscribers on the list of email addresses. Email newsletters common to subscribers on the list of email addresses are noted. The connections between/among subscribers on the list of email addresses is determined. The weight of a connection may be determined. The connection information may be provided as a service to the source. | 12-25-2014 |

20140379819 | Methods and Systems for Providing Information Relating to an Event - An organizer may send information relating to an event to participants via text messaging without having participants' texting numbers. Particularly, organizer may be associated with a texting number. Organizer sets event's start/end times, and provides email addresses for event invitees. Email requests invitees' texting numbers to participate in event. Texting numbers are stored, and encrypted respectively as identifiers. Organizer's message for participants is sent as text message to participants' texting numbers between event's start/end, and may be sent as if the message originated from organizer's texting number. When event ends, participants' texting numbers are deleted unless a participant participates in organizer's later ending event. In response to invitation to organizer's later event, a received participant's texting number may be encrypted as later identifier, and compared with identifier from earlier event. If a match, organizer's text message sent to participant during prior event is included in organizer's or participant's conversational history. | 12-25-2014 |

20100329177 | AP-LOCAL DYNAMIC SWITCHING - A technique for implementing AP-local dynamic switching involves Layer 2 switching. This may be accomplished by providing data associated with wireless stations to an AP sufficient to enable the AP to determine whether traffic from a particular wireless station should be locally switched. Alternatively, the wireless station may be able to determine whether to locally switch traffic based upon the traffic itself. For example, it may be desirable to AP-locally switch voice traffic to avoid latency, which is particularly detrimental to voice transmissions such as voice-over-IP. Traffic that is not to be switched locally is Layer 2 tunneled upstream. | 12-30-2010 |

20090254276 | Method and computer-readable storage medium with instructions for processing data in an internal navigation system - A method for processing data in an inertial navigation system having a Kalman filter and computer-readable storage medium containing instructions to configure a processor to perform the same. The method produces more accurate estimates of the position, velocity and attitude of the inertial measurement unit. The method is fully automatic and enables zero-velocity updates and fixed-azimuth updates to be performed simultaneously. The method may also include a multi-stage filtering process to filter digital compass data when used in an environment with extraterrestrial magnetic field sources. The method may also include a fixed-lag smoother to improve estimates of the position, velocity and attitude of the inertial measurement unit. The method also may include processes to constrain altitude errors. | 10-08-2009 |
