    Abstract: A technique for dynamic generation of a derivative story includes obtaining content preferences from a content consumer. The content preferences indicate preferences for characteristics of the derivative story. A content data structure is identified based at least in part on the content preferences. The content data structure specifies story elements of a preexisting story. The story elements are defined at one or more different levels of story abstraction and associated with metadata constraints that constrain modification or use of the story elements within the derivative story. At least some of the metadata constraints indicate whether associated ones of the story elements are mutable story elements. One or more of the mutable story elements are adapted to the content preferences of the content consumer as constrained by the metadata constraints to generate the derivative story. The derivative story is then rendered via a user interface.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium that provides an enhanced synchronization framework. One of the methods includes a primary and a second device that receive configuration information which identifies one or more actions to be performed by the secondary device when it receives specified pulses of a sequence of pulses from the primary device. The primary device transmits a sequence of pulses. The primary and the secondary device receive a particular pulse from the sequence of pulses. The secondary device determines whether the particular pulse satisfies one or more predetermined criteria and generates an instruction based on the determination.
