Abstract: The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture that can quantify a value of a consumer transaction to a market ecosystem. The value to the ecosystem of the transaction can be based upon features of the transaction as well as dynamics unique to the ecosystem. In addition, the value can be monetized as well as aggregated in order to produce a net economic value of a set of transactions involving a particular consumer. The architecture can further facilitate a repatriation of all or portions of the net economic value to the consumer, potentially based upon ranking and/or loyalty tiers.

Abstract translation: 所要求保护的主题涉及可以量化消费者交易对市场生态系统的价值的架构。 交易生态系统的价值可以基于交易的特征以及生态系统特有的动力。 此外，该价值可以通过货币化和汇总，以产生涉及特定消费者的一组交易的净经济价值。 该架构可进一步促进将全部或部分净经济价值汇回消费者，潜在地基于排名和/或忠诚度层级。

Abstract: The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture or extension to an operating system (or component thereof) that can facilitate extensible themes for or advertising integration with a desktop that is managed by the operating system. In particular, the architecture can acquire advertisement content such as ads or advertiser skins, select suitable content for display, and configure the operating system to display the selected content. The architecture also provides mechanisms for identifying suitable locations as well as appropriate time for displaying the content.

Abstract: A method for exchanging information between two communication devices includes communicating first identity information from a first communication device to a second communication device over a short-range communication link in response to an event. A second identity is received from the second communication device over the short-range communication link. The first identity information identifies a user of the first communication device and the second identity information identifies a user of the second communication device. Based on the first and second identity information, information is obtained specifying at least one attribute of the first and second users that they have in common.

Abstract: The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture that can characterize an item involved in a consumer transaction and/or a behavior of a consumer as a virtual financial instrument. The architecture can monitor the future performance of the virtual instrument in order to identify trendspotters as well as trend followers in a particular market domain.

Abstract translation: 所要求保护的主题涉及可以将涉及消费者交易的项目和/或消费者的行为表征为虚拟金融工具的架构。 该架构可以监控虚拟仪器的未来性能，以便识别趋势点和特定市场领域的趋势追踪者。
