| 20090110693 | MULTIMERIC COMPLEXES OF ANTIGENS AND AN ADJUVANT - The invention relates to a product which comprises a C4bp domain of a non-mammalian origin, particularly SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:23 or SEQ ID NO:37, or a variant thereof, and an antigen. The product is desirably in the form of a fusion protein. The chicken C4bp domain of SEQ ID NO:1 and SEQ ID NO:23 is also described. Antigens include monomeric antigens such as malarial and influenza antigens. The C4bp domain provides for assembly of multimeric complexes of the antigen, or mixtures thereof. The complexes are useful as vaccines. | 04-30-2009 |

| 20090013649 | SHRINKING PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SOLID, TRANSPORTABLE AND PRINTABLE CONTAINERS AND A DEVICE FOR CARRYING OUT A SHRINKING PROCESS OF THIS TYPE - The invention relates to a shrinking process for producing solid, transportable and printable containers by wrapping the articles to be packaged with a film in such a manner as to produce an overlapping section of the film ends on the base area, heating by heat exchange or convection in order to seal the free ends in the area of overlap, and finally heating in a shrinking oven, the container so produced being stabilized by the shrinking process. The method comprises first locally limiting the incoming hot air to the base area of the container to form a peripheral shell in the area of the bottle bottoms, the shape of the container being stabilized thereby, while the container is continuously transported during stabilization and the hot air directed onto the base area of the container in a bundle of discretely distributed gas jets is thereby discharged and guided back after a locally limited heat transfer with the film, and more hot gas is directed laterally against the continuously transported container at an increased lateral blow speed in order to complete the shrinking process. The invention further relates to a device for carrying out the shrinking process. | 01-15-2009 |

| 20100262596 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DERIVING DEMAND METRICS USED IN ORDERING ITEM LISTINGS PRESENTED IN A SEARCH RESULTS PAGE - Methods and systems for using a half-life formula for deriving demand metrics used in ordering item listings, when presenting those item listings in a search results page, are described. In some embodiments, a demand metric for an item listing is derived by monitoring events associated with item listings, such as, keeping a count of the number of search impressions an item listing receives. A half-life formula is used to ensure that events occurring earlier in time contribute less to the demand metric than more recently occurring events. The demand metric are used to order the item listings, when the item listings are being presented in a search results page. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100262600 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DERIVING DEMAND METRICS USED IN ORDERING ITEM LISTINGS PRESENTED IN A SEARCH RESULTS PAGE - Methods and systems for using a half-life formula for deriving demand metrics used in ordering item listings, when presenting those item listings in a search results page, are described. In some embodiments, a demand metric for an item listing is derived by monitoring events associated with item listings, such as, keeping a count of the number of search impressions an item listing receives. A half-life formula is used to ensure that events occurring earlier in time contribute less to the demand metric than more recently occurring events. The demand metric are used to order the item listings, when the item listings are being presented in a search results page. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100262601 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ASSESSING THE QUALITY OF AN ITEM LISTING - Methods and systems for assessing the quality of an item listing are described. In an example embodiment, a listing quality score for an item listing is derived as a weighted sum of first and second parts. The first part represents a predicted score based on a comparison of item attributes for the item listing that are known at listing time, with item attributes of similar item listings that have historical data available for assessing their actual performance. The second part is based on one or more observed demand metrics representing actual historical performance of the item listing. The weighting factor is derived, such that over time, the emphasis shifts from the predicted to the observed score. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100262602 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DERIVING A SCORE WITH WHICH ITEM LISTINGS ARE ORDERED WHEN PRESENTED IN SEARCH RESULTS - Methods and systems for analyzing, ordering and presenting item listings are described. In one example embodiment, a search query is processed to identify item listings satisfying the search query. Then, for each item listing that satisfies the search query, a ranking score is derived and assigned to the item listing. The ranking score is based in part on a relevance score, a listing quality score and a business rules score (or, adjustment factor). Finally, the item listings are ordered, based on their corresponding ranking score, and presented in order in a search results page. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100306205 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING AN ORDER OF PRESENTATION OF SEARCH RESULTS - A method and system for determining an order of presentation of the search results is provided. An example system comprises a search request detector, a search engine, and an intermingler. The search request detector may be configured to receive a search request, and the search engine may be configured to determine search results based on the search request. The search results may comprise a first set of items in a first format and a second set of items in a second format. The number of items in the first set and the number of items in the second may reflect a predetermined target ratio and respective exposure percentages for items in the first format and items in the second format. The intermingler may be configured to determine an order of presentation of the search results in a list of search results based on the target ratio. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20110078049 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EXPOSING DATA USED IN RANKING SEARCH RESULTS - Methods and systems for enabling access to listing performance data, used in conjunction with a search engine to order search results, are described. Consistent with some embodiments, a listing performance data engine module processes API commands received from client computing systems. The data engine module processes the API commands to identify and communicate relevant listing performance data that is used by a listing performance algorithm to assign a listing performance score to item listings satisfying a search request. The listing performance data provides sellers who have items listed for sale an insight as to how their item listings are performing in comparison to other item listings. | 03-31-2011 |

| 20100262495 | BUSINESS RULES FOR AFFECTING THE ORDER IN WHICH ITEM LISTINGS ARE PRESENTED - Methods and systems for evaluating business rules for the purpose of promoting or demoting an item listing are presented. Consistent with an example embodiment, a conditional statement of a business rule that includes one or more expressions involving an item attribute and/or a seller attribute for an item listing is evaluated. If the conditional statement evaluates true, an adjustment factor set forth in the business rule is applied to a ranking score assigned to the item listing. The item listing is then presented in a search results page in a position relative to other item listings based upon the adjusted ranking score. | 10-14-2010 |
