Methods and systems for generating a planned path for a vehicle are disclosed. Upon receiving a trip service request, a processor will access a data store containing multiple candidate motion planning systems, each of which is associated with at least one vehicle or fleet. The processor will identify a starting point and a destination for the trip service request, and it will use an identifier for the vehicle or its fleet to select, from the candidate systems, a motion planning system. The processor will use the functions of the selected motion planning system to generate candidate trajectories for the first vehicle from the starting point to the destination in a high definition map. The processor will select a planned route from the candidate trajectories, and it will output trip instructions to cause the vehicle to move along the planned route.

Methods and systems that use a phantom vehicle to help generate a planned path for a real-world vehicle are described. The system will identify a starting point and a destination for a trip of the real-world vehicle. The system will select, from the data store of vehicle profiles, a phantom vehicle having an associated motion planning system that corresponds to a system that is deployed on the real-world vehicle. The system will use a high definition map to generate a planned route for the real-world vehicle from the starting point to the destination in the map. The system will run a simulation in which the phantom vehicle moves along the planned route in the map. The system will then output a record of the simulation to a user of the real world-vehicle or to a system of the real-world vehicle.

Methods and systems for estimating a time of arrival for a vehicle at a destination are disclosed. The system will access an adjacency graph comprising nodes and edges. Each node is associated with a unique location in a geographic area in which the vehicle is traveling. Each edge connects two of the nodes and is associated with an estimated travel time between the two connected nodes. The system will select, from the locations in adjacency graph, a first location that is near the vehicle and a second location that is near the destination. The location and destination are each associated with nodes in adjacency graph. The system will calculate a shortest path along the edges in the adjacency graph from the location and destination nodes, and it will calculate an estimated time of arrival for the vehicle as a function of the estimated travel times along the shortest path.

Systems and methods for managing permissions and authorizing access to a service supported by a computing device. The methods comprise by a computing device: intercepting a request to access the service sent along with a certificate including a first tenant identifier (the first tenant identifier identifying a first business entity other than a second business entity providing the service); using the first tenant identifier to obtain permission information from a datastore (the permission information specifying which resources of a plurality of resources can be returned in response to requests from the first business entity); generating a web authentication token including the first tenant identifier and the permission information; and initiating operations of the service in response to a validation of the web authentication token.

Computer systems and computer-implemented methods for transcoding websites adapted for viewing on a personal computer to websites adapted for viewing on a mobile device are disclosed. A computer-implemented transcoding method is implemented on a website server. The computer-implemented transcoding method includes handling a request, selecting a controller, generating a response, and returning the response.
