    摘要: An interactive digital television system (iDTV) with a personalization module (PM) for injecting signals towards a small user-groups. The iDTV system comprises a broadcast operator (BO) for sending to subscriber units (SB: SB1-SB3) a downstream digital broadcast stream (BS) received from an interactive digital television provider (ITVP), and also comprising an interaction return channel operator (RCO) for providing interactivity between the subscriber units and the interactive digital television provider by means of a bi-directional interaction return channel (IC). The personalization module (PM) is coupled to the bi-directional interaction return channel (IC) and allows intercommunication between the subscriber units. As a result, a user can escape the limitations of the current linear TV programs and is transformed from a pure spectator into a producer and director of a collective or individual iDTV experience. In this way, when implicit or explicit groups of users are created, a user of the group may send control or data signals to the other users of the group. Data signals may be multimedia data to display and control signals may be recommendations of switching all together to another broadcasted channel. Preferably, each subscriber unit comprises a set-top box (STB) coupled to a server-side logic (L1) of the interactive digital television provider (ITVP) via the personalization module (PM) and this personalization module comprises an application logic proxy (L1′) able to interpret signals sent over the interaction return channel (IC) between the set-top box and the server-side logic in order to forward selected ones of these signals to other parts of the iDTV system. The personalization module (PM) comprises some or all the following modules: the application logic proxy (L1′), a content-reflector and forking module (L2), a community support module (L3), a presence module (L4), a terminal capability module (L5) and a broadcast data collector module (L6), interconnected through a routing/forwarding layer or link (RFL).

A scheduler is modulating the QoS based on service usage and user-behavior just-in-time. It relates to a method for efficient use of network resources by just-in-time modulation of quality of service based on real-time service-usage and user-behavior comprising steps recording events, generating a synthesis of user-behavior for a QoS user profile according to QoS user preferences, predicting required QoS demand based on current user behavior and user QoS profile, according to QoS user preferences, deriving and propagating QoS demands and allocations, and co-ordination of QoS request of a manifold of users, based on requests, QoS user profiles, QoS user preferences and resources. Further it relates to computer software product, client terminals, a scheduler server, a network element, and a network.

    摘要: The present invention relates to an object perception method, for use by a perceiving device that is adapted to perceive at least one object in an environment comprising a plurality of objects. Each object of the plurality of objects is adapted to provision meta-information characterising the corresponding object. The perceiving device includes at least one object of the plurality of objects in a selection by varying a perspective of the object perceiving device. The perceiving device perceives this at least one object of the plurality of objects included in the selection and captures a representation of the at least one object included in said selection in a snapshot. The perceiving device further perceives meta-information corresponding to the at least one object in the selection and additionally the meta-information corresponding to the objects of said plurality of objects not included in the selection. The perceiving device then captures in the snapshot additionally to the representation of the at least one object included in the selection, the meta-information corresponding to the at least one object in the selection, said meta-information corresponding to said objects not included in said selection.
