Systems and methods are disclosed for routing mobile users to safe, or secure, locations. In one embodiment, based on threat information obtained from one or more source, a threat level is determined for a location of a user of a mobile device. The threat level is indicative of physical safety and/or network safety at the location of the user of the mobile device. The threat level may be a function of a transaction type of a transaction being performed or desired to be performed by the user of the mobile device. If the location is unsafe, a safe location is identified, and the user of the mobile device is routed to the safe location.

The present invention provides a system and method for recommending operational information, such as play lists or settings, for one or more devices associated with a local wireless network based on content information describing content stored on a number of user devices within the local wireless network. More specifically, a recommendation engine obtains the content information for a number of user devices within the local wireless network from either a central node or the user devices and analyzes the content information to recommend operational information for one or more devices associated with the local wireless network.

A system and method for automatically configuring a content capture device according to a configuration profile for a desired service are provided. In general, the user of the content capture device registers for one or more services. Thereafter, in one embodiment, the user of the content capture device selects one of a desired service prior to content capture. In another embodiment, the desired service is selected based on contextual information obtained by the content capture device. Once the desired service is selected, the content capture device obtains a configuration profile for the desired service. The configuration profile includes required or suggested configurations for the content capture device when capturing content to be distributed to the desired service. The content capture device performs an auto-configuration process based on the configuration profile. Once the content capture device is configured, content captured by the content capture device is distributed to the desired service.

The present invention provides a system and method for modifying a profile of a user device prior to sending the profile to a destination server, wherein the destination server customizes content provided to the user device based on the modified profile. In general, the profile of the user device may include information identifying capabilities of the user device, user preferences, and demographic information regarding a user of the user device. At either the user device or a mediating server interconnecting the user device and the destination server, the profile of the user device is modified based upon one or more rules to provide the modified profile. The modified profile is then provided to the destination server, which customizes content provided to the user device based on the modified profile.

An apparatus and method directed to automated call screening, and specifically the utilization of location history of a call recipient to determine call authorization, are provided. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, a computer readable medium embodied in an article of manufacture is encoded with instructions for directing a processor to receive a request from a first device to communicate with a second device. The processor is further directed to determine at least one location associated with the first device, determine an authorization for the request based at least in part upon the at least one location associated with the first device and at least one prior location of the second device, and transmit the request to the second device in accordance with the authorization.

A system and method for representing content available from a hosting user are provided. In general, content representations that are descriptive of content made accessible by the hosting user are presented in association with a content representation host representing the hosting user according to a layering scheme. The content representation host may be, for example, an avatar in a virtual environment, a custom webpage of the hosting user, an identifier of the hosting user in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network, an identifier of the hosting user in a mobile network, or the like. Based on the content representations, other users are enabled to quickly and easily determine whether content of interest is accessible from the hosting user.

A caching proxy server for a hybrid peer-to-peer (P2P) photosharing system is provided. In general, the proxy server includes cache storing a number of previously requested digital images, a metadata database storing metadata including a number of keywords associated with each of the digital images stored in the cache, and a metadata usage table storing a number of “hits” for each of the keywords. When the used storage space in the cache reaches a predetermined limit, the proxy server examines the metadata usage table to determine a popularity of each of the keywords and removes digital images tagged with one or more of the least popular keywords until the used storage space in the cache decreases to a desirable level. As such, the proxy server ensures that digital images tagged with the most popular keywords remain in the proxy cache and are therefore available for subsequent requests.

Methods, systems, and products are disclosed for measuring trust. A device is encountered. A trust score for the device is calculated and compared to a threshold. The threshold may be a minimum trust score associated with the function. If the calculated trust score equals or exceeds the threshold, then the function is executed. If the calculated trust score is less than the threshold, then the function is denied.

A system and method are provided for managing reader and writer threads in a caching proxy server. In general, a caching proxy server operates as an intermediary between a web server and a number of client devices. The clients send requests for digital assets hosted by the web server to the caching proxy server. For each request, or more particularly for each group of concurrent requests, for a particular digital asset, the caching proxy server operates in either a decoupled writer mode of operation or a reader/writer mode operation. In addition, while serving the requests, the proxy server may switch between the decoupled writer and the reader/writer modes of operation depending on one or more criteria.

Exemplary embodiments provide for optimizing operation of a radio program, wherein the radio program is operated by a host using a host process. Aspects include collecting and storing contextual information from participants of the radio program, the participants including listeners and callers of the radio program; analyzing the contextual information; and enabling at least one feature on the host process based at least in part on the contextual information.
