A system can receive a request for a transport service from a first device. The request can include a user identifier associated with a first user of the first device, contact information associated with a second user, and a pickup location information. The system can make a determination whether a user account associated with the second user is stored in a user database using the contact information in the request. Based on the determination, the system can select a messaging protocol to transmit data to a second device associated with the contact information. The system can transmit a message corresponding to the transport service to the second device using the selected messaging protocol.

A failover system can receive active data from user devices running an application specific to a service entity providing an application service. For each user device, the active data can indicate a current status. The failover system can transmit restoration data to the user devices for storage to restore the current status of the user devices in the case of a failover event. When a failover event occurs, the failover system can recover the restoration data from a first user device to restore the current status of the application service for the first user device.

Techniques are provided for selectively and dynamically determining one or more words of an electronic book to present with comprehension guides. For instance, an electronic device rendering an electronic book may determine whether to display some, all, or no words of the book with comprehension guides for words within the electronic book based on word difficulty, contextual importance or aspects of the user. Techniques are also provided for determining the content of comprehension guides to be presented with the words.

Selective display of comprehension guides

Machine-learned models are selectively distributed to a plurality of computer servers according to conditions associated with the computer servers. A server receives travel information from a travel coordination system. The travel information describes a plurality of conditions. The server identifies a hierarchy of one or more parent-child relationships based on the plurality of conditions. The server trains machine-learned models using the plurality of conditions described by the travel information. The server selects machine-learned models for the plurality of conditions responsive to the identified hierarchy. The server distributes machine-learned models to the plurality of computer servers responsive to the identified hierarchy.
