“Sev is one of the best leaders I have had the privilege to work for and with. He has been my mentor for the past 2.5 years at Gojek who has literally made me push myself above and beyond to learn and deliver. Sev’s methodical way of composable engineering, bias for action and dealing with uncertain situations has led to some vital decisions being made at Gojek and Goto. He always communicates with a clear intent when it comes to tough decisions and keeps the standards' bar high. It was a privilege to have worked with him at Goto and would always be a pleasure to have a similar opportunity with him again.”

Augmenting search results
Filed US WO 2012116222 A3
Results of a search on one body of data may be enhanced by performing the same search, or a related search, on another body of data. In one example, the first body of data is pages (or other content) on a web site, and the second body of data is pages (or other content) on another web site. When a user enters a query to perform a site-specific search on the first web site, that web site may then perform a related search on the second web site. When results are obtained from the second web site,…

When a user enters a query to perform a site-specific search on the first web site, that web site may then perform a related search on the second web site. When results are obtained from the second web site, it may be determined whether the first web site has any pages that correspond to the received results. The first web site may then use its corresponding pages in the results that it provides to the user

Multi-part search result ranking
Filed US US 20120330948 A1
Search results responsive to a query are generated by a search engine. If the query is “location relevant”, the results are provided to a ranker component. If the query is an entity search, then entities matching the query are ranked by distance from the user. If the query is not, and if it is not semantically charged, the entities are ranked either according to distance from the user or by search relevance. If the query is semantically charged, a semantic score is calculated for each entity…
Search results responsive to a query are generated by a search engine. If the query is “location relevant”, the results are provided to a ranker component. If the query is an entity search, then entities matching the query are ranked by distance from the user. If the query is not, and if it is not semantically charged, the entities are ranked either according to distance from the user or by search relevance. If the query is semantically charged, a semantic score is calculated for each entity. One or more threshold semantic scores are determined that divide the search results into multiple parts. The results within each part can then be ranked independently. The results within a first part are ranked according to their distance from the user, while the results in a subsequent part are ranked according to their semantical relationship to the query. The re-ranked parts are concatenated together.

Dynamic Content Caching and Retrieval
Filed US US 2010/0318745 A1
This disclosure provides techniques for dynamic content caching and retrieval. For example, a computing device includes cache memory dedicated to temporarily caching data of one or more applications of the computing device. The computing device also includes storage memory to store data in response to requests by the applications. The storage memory may also temporarily cache data. Further, the computing device includes system software to represent to the applications of the computing device…

The computing device also includes storage memory to store data in response to requests by the applications. The storage memory may also temporarily cache data. Further, the computing device includes system software to represent to the applications of the computing device that the portions of the storage memory utilized to cache content are available to store data of the applications. In addition, the computing device includes application programming interfaces to provide content to a requesting application from a cache of the computing device and/or from a remote content source.

Local Loop For Mobile Peer To Peer Messaging
Filed US US 2010/0318617 A1
Techniques described herein describe a proxy used in an instant messaging system. The proxy, upon receiving an instant message (IM) from a first mobile device and addressed to a second mobile device, dynamically determines whether, and for how long to store the IM on a local proxy. Otherwise the IM is forwarded to a server.

Dynamic Content Caching and Retrieval for Mobile Applications
US US-2010-0318745-A1
In order to alleviate delays in retrieving content from remote sources caused by slow data transfer rates and dropped network connections, some requested content may be cached at a wireless device having limited cache memory space. Typically, the wireless device communicates with the content source before the cached content is provided to a requesting user or application. The invention provides requested content from cache memory of a computing device without first contacting the content…
In order to alleviate delays in retrieving content from remote sources caused by slow data transfer rates and dropped network connections, some requested content may be cached at a wireless device having limited cache memory space. Typically, the wireless device communicates with the content source before the cached content is provided to a requesting user or application. The invention provides requested content from cache memory of a computing device without first contacting the content source. The invention also is a file system filter that dynamically allocates storage memory of a computing device, such as a hard disk or flash memory, as cache memory. The claims are directed toward caching content outside of cache memory of a computing device and providing requested content from cache memory before communicating with a content source.

Amazon Prime Air
- Present
From our project website:
We're excited to share Prime Air — something the team has been working on in our next generation R&D lab.
The goal of this new delivery system is to get packages into customers' hands in 30 minutes or less using unmanned aerial vehicles.
Putting Prime Air into commercial use will take some number of years as we advance the technology and wait for the necessary FAA rules and regulations.
