摘要： Methods and systems to determine a change in a location of a device relative to an initial location of the device are provided. The method includes periodically receiving a parameter of the device and determining the change in the location of the device relative to an initial location of the device based on a change in the parameter over a period of time. In an example, the method includes determining a first trend in the parameter over a first period of time, determining a second trend in the parameter over a second period of time, and determining a change in the location of the device from a first location to a second location by comparing the first trend to the second trend.

摘要： Embodiments include a system and method for a real-time distributed Transport Stream (TS) analysis that utilizes many parts of an available network to concurrently monitor TSs across a geographic region. Embodiments include the selection of a profile for each combination of a TS and a collection point where the profile includes one or more sets of acceptable transmission values or ranges associated with the combination. The profile may include for example, program service information tables, service information, TS transmission parameters, and/or general TS quality index analysis rules. Embodiments include real-time concurrent monitoring and analysis of multiple TSs from collection points distributed throughout the geographic region. As services associated with the TSs at different collection points evolve, the respective profiles and rules adapt accordingly to maintain the quality of service and performance associated with respective TS and collection point combinations.

摘要： In a video delivery context, collection and analysis of viewing data can provide insight into viewer interaction with video and the Internet. The viewing data can be transmitted in a controlled manner to a data repository. The system can selectively target specific viewers/households to obtain viewing data, which can be combined with demographics, anonymized, and encrypted. Embodiments enable precision selection of media opportunities, by determining detailed characteristics associated with broadcasts including movement of audiences and specific viewer behavior, such as visits to websites on the Internet. The effective yield of broadcasts, including promotional spots and advertisements, can be determined and predicted based on concrete data at a level of detail down to individual viewers. Accordingly, embodiments enable improvement of the effectiveness and return on investment for programming, promotional spots, and advertisements.

摘要： A cable provider could offer a promotional feature, such as live pause of video, above and beyond a tier of service to which the customer subscribes, limiting the feature to being activated only upon occurrence of one or more events. In a network video delivery context, a set-top box plays live video, including an ability to pause live video upon the occurrence of an event. The system can detect an event, including an event unrelated to video, and prompt a user to pause. The system can include configuration settings enabling, for example, detection of various events, prompting the user to pause live video, and/or automatically pausing the live video. The system enables the user to play a time-shifted video corresponding to resuming the paused video playback. The system can include a Digital Video Recorder (DVR) local to the user, to facilitate the time-shifted video. The system is also compatible with a RS-DVR, where DVR functionality and time-shifted video is provided remotely from a head-end of a network video system. Additionally, the system is compatible with non-DVR network video delivery systems configured to provide live pause.

摘要： Embodiments utilize viewership data collected via a set top box (STB) at individual households (HHs) to enable a network operator to recommend ad spots to customers based on a percentage of HHs that are likely to view the ad spots (e.g., the % of HHs reached by the ad spots), and/or based on the average number of times (e.g., average frequency) that the reached HHs are likely to view the ad spot. Embodiments compile the available network/daypart ad spots per broadcast week, and determine a number of ad spots for each network/daypart that satisfy a reached threshold of HHs, and/or satisfies the minimum frequency threshold.

摘要： The present disclosure describes a targeted advertising system that harnesses an expansive device footprint to create targeted advertisements based on household demographics and characteristics about persons in the households. The targeted advertising system uses device identifiers and longitude/latitude data to map devices to households. After associating devices with a household, the targeted advertising system leverages a wide-array of data assets to create an enormous panel of households, devices, persons, locations, and demographic information for use creating high-precisions, targeted advertising campaigns. This greatly enhanced device footprint creates the opportunity for highly accurate ad targeting across a far greater amount of devices and a larger footprint at any time and place.

摘要： Embodiments include a system, method, and a computer program product for notifying a technician when a repair task the technician is addressing may be negatively impacted by a nearby fault and/or if the technician is qualified to repair a nearby fault. The technician is qualified if the technician has the necessary skills, parts (e.g., materials), and/or equipment (test equipment) required to repair the nearby fault. In addition, embodiments include receiving and responding to queries from a technician to: determine whether any of the repair tasks associated with the technician's assigned tickets are futile tasks based on newly received faults or pending tickets; and determine whether the querying technician is qualified to address (e.g., repair) any newly received faults or pending tickets.

摘要： Embodiments determine failures of a network element (NE) in an outside plant utilizing a connectivity trail that indicates NEs starting at the headend and ending at a distribution tap that serves one or more customer premise devices associated to a customer account. Embodiments determine a failed NE that serves the highest number of customers for which a trouble is reported to a ticketing system. Embodiments avoid reporting downstream child NEs that may be performing poorly due to the upstream failed parent NE. Embodiments associate the one or more customer premise devices, and a customer account with respective NEs of the connectivity trail, perform operational metric tests to determine whether a customer premise device associated with a customer account has failed, determine when an NE of the connectivity trail has failed. Embodiments also include rebooting the failed NE and/or notifying a ticketing system accordingly.
