Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for defining a network specialization mechanism that enables a better alignment between end users' usage profiles and their access networks. Conteni specialization of networks may be implemented as a preference o a particular SCN or network in terms of content. Such a network may, for example, cache in priority preferred content, provide preferential quality of service (QoS), or limit access to non-preferred content. A network may advertise its preference or content specialization to end users (e.g., so that end users can decide to attach to SCNs or networks with compatible preferences) and to other content networks (e.g., to influence content routing decisions or to negotiate partitioning of the specialization space). Such content specialization may apply to physical or virtual networks.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described for synchronizing a media presentation on a plurality of wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs). A media session may be synchronized by a first wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) creating a networked bookmark for a media program at a bookmark-created time; the first WTRU presenting the media program at a bookmark-presentation time, wherein the first WTRU includes in the networked bookmark a suggested presentation offset that indicates an offset in time from the bookmark-created time to the bookmark-presentation time; and the first WTRU transmitting the networked bookmark, including the suggested presentation offset, to an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network for use by a second WTRU in replicating, at the second WTRU, the presentation of the media program at the first WTRU.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described for synchronizing a media presentation on a plurality of wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs). A media session may be replicated from a first WTRU onto a second WTRU. The first WTRU may initiate a bookmark procedure to create a bookmark to obtain synchronized playout with the second WTRU. A suggested presentation offset in the bookmark may specify an offset in time from a bookmark created time to a bookmark presentation time at the first WTRU. The first WTRU may establish an Internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) session with a packet switch stream (PSS) server. The media session may be replicated onto the second WTRU at a wall-clock time T, and the second WTRU may present an offset equal to T−bookmarkcreatedtime+bookmark offset−suggestedPresentationOffset from the beginning of a program in order to obtain synchronized media playout with the first WTRU.

Abstract: A multi-hypothesis rate adaptation technique may be performed for one or more wireless multimedia streaming scenarios. Managing a multimedia streaming session may involve sending, by a client, a request for a first portion of content to a server. A response may be received from a proxy. The response may comprise the first portion of content and information associated with a second portion of content available via the proxy. A request may be sent to the proxy for the proxy to deliver the second portion of content to the client. A change in a parameter associated with the multimedia streaming session may be determined based on data received from the proxy. It may be determined to change a rate adaptation. A Wireless Transmit/Receive Unit (WTRU) may be configured to perform the rate adaptation.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for integrating peer-to-peer (P2P) networks with content delivery networks (CDNs). In an embodiment, a method for use in a network storage control peer (NSCP) supporting P2P operation includes receiving swarm stats from a tracker; determining, based on the received swarm stats, a P2P rarity associated with a content piece; and responsive to the determined P2P rarity, transmitting an upload request message to an ingestion gateway, wherein the upload request message indicates that the content piece is to be uploaded to a CDN.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are described for sponsoring service and preferential traffic handling, (i.e., data connectivity) by wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs). A first WTRU may initiate user sponsoring of a second WTRU via an application server (AS). The first WTRU may receive a service trigger from the AS and forward the service trigger to the second WTRU. The second WTRU may then initiate a sponsored session with the AS using the service trigger in order to receive a service from the AS. The first WTRU may also request the AS to transfer a credit to the second WTRU. The AS may establish a direct communication link with a charging system including an online charging function (OCF) and a charging data function (CDF). The AS may send a request to a network to provide preferential traffic handling needed to deliver content to the second WTRU.

Abstract: Techniques for inter-user equipment (UE) transfer (IUT) are disclosed. An application server may receive an IUT request for transfer of a media session toward at least one initial UE such that the media session is to be played by at least two target UEs. The server may determine eligibility for IUT with group synchronization based on the request. The server may send a message to the initial UE that IUT with group synchronization is not allowed on a condition that IUT with group synchronization is not allowed. Further, the server may trigger inter-destination media synchronization (IDMS) for group synchronization of media sessions among the UEs on a condition that IUT with group synchronization is allowed. The media sessions may include a first media session and second media session. The media stream may be played by at least two UEs that are geographically separated after the transfer.

Abstract translation: 公开了用于用户间设备（UE）传送（IUT）的技术。 应用服务器可以接收针对至少一个初始UE传输媒体会话的IUT请求，使得媒体会话将被至少两个目标UE播放。 服务器可以根据请求确定具有组同步的IUT的资格。 服务器可以向初始UE发送消息，在不允许具有组同步的IUT的条件下，不允许具有组同步的IUT。 此外，在允许具有组同步的IUT的条件下，服务器可以触发用于UE之间的媒体会话的组同步的目的地间媒体同步（IDMS）。 媒体会话可以包括第一媒体会话和第二媒体会话。 媒体流可以由传输之后的地理上分离的至少两个UE播放。
