The design, implementation, and evalua- tion of several unique components for geo-targeting led to an understanding of the strength and weakness of each strategy. Upon realization of the pros and cons of the location mapping designs, a new system was built that combines the best features of each technique. An overall evaluation of each component and the final system is then presented to demonstrate the accuracy gained with the use of a Domain-Based Corn- ponent Selection methodology.

  • OTT) Devices Frequently Asked Questions
    Identifier for Advertising (IFA) for Over-the-Top (OTT) Devices Frequently Asked Questions Why is there a need for a standardized Identifier for Advertising (IFA) across Over-the- Top (OTT) devices and platforms? The OTT ecosystem is very fragmented—consumers are accessing OTT content via streaming devices (Roku, Google Chromecast, Apple TV, and Amazon Firestick), Smart TVs (Samsung, Sony, Vizio, LG, etc.), video game consoles (Xbox and PlayStation) and Blu-ray devices. Additionally, advertisers cannot rely on cookies like they can in a traditional browser environment since they do not exist in the app-based OTT ecosystem. This leaves marketers reliant on device identifiers and IP addresses for targeting consumers and managing frequency. There has been a need for a standardized, software-based advertising identifier for OTT that can be disabled and/or reset by the consumer and that can be passed through the supply chain in a similar fashion to the mobile Ad IDs that have existed for years for Android and Apple OS devices (and which have helped grow and scale the mobile advertising industry). While there are some devices that provide industry-compliant identifiers for advertising, there are still many others that do not send any IFA, and still others that send a non-standardized form of the IFA (an IFA in ‘a different language’) which then requires manual work on the buy side to translate into a usable form. Additionally, some publishers in the OTT supply chain are withholding this identifier when communicating with the advertiser’s ad server. The industry needs all devices and publishers to be in compliance with one another so that ultimately consumers encounter the best possible ad experience, regardless of how they are navigating across apps and devices.

  • Understanding Ad Blockers
    Understanding Ad Blockers A Major Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science In Computer Science By _________________________________ Doruk Uzunoglu March 21, 2016 _______________________ Professor Craig E. Wills, Project Advisor Professor and Department Head Department of Computer Science ABSTRACT This project aims to provide useful information for users and researchers who would like to learn more about ad blocking. Three main research areas are explored in this project. The first research area provides general information about ad blocking tools and aims to explore ad blockers from a user’s perspective. The second research area provides analyses regarding third­party sites that appear on popular first­party sites in order to explore the behavior of third­parties. Finally, the third research area provides analyses regarding filter lists, which are sets of ad filtering rules used by ad blocking tools. The third research area aims to convey the differences and similarities between individual filter lists as well as sets of filter lists that form the defaults of ad blocking tools. 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Professor Craig Wills for advising my project, providing insight, and gathering the popular third­party domains data which I analyzed as part of this project. In addition, I would like to thank Jinyan Zang for sharing the third­party data regarding mobile apps, which they have gathered as part of their 2015 paper named “Who Knows What About Me? A Survey of Behind the Scenes Personal Data Sharing to Third Parties by Mobile Apps.” The data provided by Jinyan Zang was also analyzed as part of this project.
