Abstract:
A method and apparatus for providing a stable streaming service in transmitting data in a streaming form is provided. The method includes establishing a mutual connection between at least two mobile terminals; providing, by a first mobile terminal from among least two mobile terminals, reception sharing information corresponding to streaming data to at least one other mobile terminal from among the at least two mobile terminals; receiving, by the at least two mobile terminals, streaming data from a streaming server based on the reception sharing information; obtaining, by the first mobile terminal, streaming data received by the at least one other mobile terminal; and integrating, by the first mobile terminal, the streaming data from the streaming server and the obtained streaming data.
Abstract:
A method for controlling functions of a Management Device (MD) included in a home network is provided. The method for controlling the functions of the MD by a Control Device (CD) in a home network system including the CD for controlling functions of an Electronic Device (ED) connected to a home network and the MD, the functions of which are managed by the CD, includes diagnosing at least one function performed by the MD; identifying information necessary to control the at least one function; and transmitting, to the MD, control information for controlling the at least one function, in consideration of the information necessary to control the at least one function.
Abstract:
A mobile broadcast system having a terminal is disclosed. The terminal transmits a message including a type-based identifier (ID) to a BCAST Subscription Management (BSM) in a corresponding network during network access. The BSM determines a type of an ID of the received message and then performs an authentication procedure according to the type of the ID.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for providing preferred contents to a user in an Internet broadcasting system that provides a broadcast service using an Internet data transport protocol. A user terminal sends a request for a broadcast service to a service provider. The user terminal receives an authentication key from the service provider, and delivers the authentication key to a third display terminal in which a user of the user terminal is not registered. The third display terminal delivers the authentication key and connection information of the third display terminal to the service provider. The service provider authenticates the third display terminal. The user terminal transmits information selected by the user to the service provider, which transmits broadcast service data related to the selected information to the third display terminal for being displayed.
Abstract:
An Internet broadcasting system for supporting broadcast services by using Internet Protocol (IP), and more particularly an apparatus and method for providing a user's preferred contents in an Internet broadcasting system are provided. The method of providing contents in an Internet broadcasting system includes searching for contents in an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) according to a user preference, constituting a user channel, based on the searched contents and providing a terminal with the searched contents according to the user channel.
Abstract:
A method for delivering/receiving content in a mobile communication system. A terminal sends a Content Delivery Repair Request message requiring repair of the content to a server, when reception of the content provided from the server is not normally carried out; and receives a Content Delivery Repair Response message from the server in response to the Content Delivery Repair Request message. The server receives a Content Delivery Repair Request message from the terminal, when reception of the content is not normally carried out at the terminal, and sends a Content Delivery Repair Response message in response to the Content Delivery Repair Request message.
Abstract:
A roaming service method in a mobile broadcasting system and a system thereof are provided. A terminal receives a service guide from a corresponding visited service provider (Visited SP) when the terminal moves to a roaming area. The terminal transmits a roaming request message for requesting a purchase item allowable for individual services to a home service provider (Home SP) based on the received service guide. Upon receipt of the roaming request message, the Home SP negotiates roaming availability and allowable scope for each individual service with the Visited SP where the terminal is located, based on the roaming request message. The Home SP transmits the roaming availability and allowable scope for the individual service, negotiated with the Visited SP, to the terminal.
Abstract:
Provided is a broadcasting system based on a network using an Internet protocol (IP). In the broadcasting system, a broadcast transmitter previously transmits first access information including a first network address for transmitting a general notification message and second access information associated with management of the broadcasting system, to a broadcast receiver. If a general notification event occurs, the general notification message is generated and the generated general notification message is transmitted to the broadcast receiver via one of a broadcast network and an interaction network using the first network address. The broadcast receiver receives a general notification message based on the first network address in data received from the broadcast transmitter.
Abstract:
A method for managing user schedules, which includes inputting data; determining if the input data corresponds to schedule data or request data; extracting a function necessary for executing an action which a user must perform at a specific time for the schedule data or the request data; determining a main element type according to the extracted function; and storing the input data when the input data correspond to the schedule data according to the main element type, and executing the extracted function and outputting results obtained by executing the extracted function when the input data correspond to the request data.
Abstract:
A method and system for managing capabilities of a control device in a Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) home network. The method includes advertising a list of capabilities of a control device to a control point in the UPnP home network, updating, by the control device, a capability in the list of capabilities, and advertising an updated list of capabilities to the control point.
