Abstract:
Disclosed is a method and an apparatus for managing a consumption right for each stage for a service including a plurality of stages or episodes. The right issuer includes the access condition, which allows an access to the Right Object (RO) for each stage, in the right object representing the consumption right for the stepped multimedia service and then transfers the right object to the device. When the stepped multimedia service is executed, the device obtains the access information satisfying the access condition corresponding to a corresponding stage from the right issuer or a service provider and then transfers the access information to the RO, allowing a user to access the RO and execute a service of the corresponding stage by using the RO.
Abstract:
A method is provided for controlling content playback by a terminal in a content delivery system. The method includes receiving streaming content from a service provider, the streaming content including zone information of each zone and an associated identifier of each zone for identifying a terminal's operation mode, determining the terminal's operation mode depending on the identifier, and controlling playback of the streaming content in a zone corresponding to the zone information according to the determined operation mode.
Abstract:
A method of playing back content based on digital rights management (DRM) between a portable storage and a device and a portable storage for the same are provided. The method of playing back content using a portable storage includes requesting the portable storage to transmit a right to play back content protected through digital rights management (DRM), receiving the right to play back the content protected through DRM from the portable storage, and informing the portable storage of completion of the playback when a playback of the content protected through DRM using the right is completed.
Abstract:
A system in which a source device can withdraw a Rights Object (RO) that a source device requested a target device to move through a Rights Issuer (RI) and operation method thereof are provided. The method includes transmitting a rights object withdrawal request message to a rights issuing server by a device, transmitting a rights object withdrawal response message to the device by the rights issuing server in response to the rights object withdrawal request message, and withdrawing and installing a corresponding rights object when receiving the rights object withdrawal response message by the device.
Abstract:
A rights objects acquisition method of a mobile terminal in a digital right management system is provided for acquiring multiple rights objects in a composite manner. An objects right acquisition method of a mobile terminal may include generating, in response to a group rights object (RO) acquisition command, a group rights object acquisition request with content identifiers assigned to individual contents corresponding to the rights objects indicated by the group rights object acquisition command, sending the group rights object acquisition request to a rights issuer; and receiving an group rights object acquisition response containing rights object identifiers assigned to the rights objects from the rights issuer. The present invention streamlines the RO acquisition process, especially when acquiring multiple ROs.
Abstract:
A mobile broadcast system for delivering a notification event for generation of a notification message for information provisioning to a subscriber receiving a broadcast service is provided. The mobile broadcast system includes a first apparatus for managing subscriber information of the broadcast service, handling generation of at least one notification message according to at least one notification event, and generating a response message indicating generation end of the notification message; and a second apparatus for sending a notification event message for requesting generation of the notification message to the first apparatus according to the at least one notification event, receiving the response message in response thereto, and then handling delivery of the notification message over a broadcast channel or an interaction channel.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus is provided for transmitting information necessary for generation of a notification event for a mobile broadcast (BCAST) service in a wireless communication system. A request message is generated including notification event information and appropriate attributes indicating a change in the BCAST service, and is transmitted to a Notification Event Function (NTE) in a BCAST Service Application block, which generates a notification event, and transmits a response message indicating the generation result to the CC. The NTE transmits the notification event to a function in a BCAST Subscription Management block to generate a notification message indicating the notification event, to be transmitted to a terminal receiving the BCAST service.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus is provided for transmitting information necessary for the generation of a service guide for a mobile broadcast service in a broadcast system supporting the mobile broadcast service. A Content Creation (CC) block transmits a service guide request message including various sources necessary for the generation of a service guide to a Service Guide Application Source (SGAS). The SGAS transmits the service guide request message to a Service Guide Generation (SG-G) unit over a backend interface. The SG-G generates a service guide using various sources included in the service guide request message, and transmits a service guide generation completion message indicating completion of the generation of the service guide to the SGAS.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and a system for mutual inclusive authentication between a service provider, a terminal and a user identity module. The authentication system is configured in a structure that can interact with a public key infrastructure of the current network security environment and can be independently used in a specific network system. The inclusive authentication method is divided into public key authentication and symmetric key authentication. Mutual authentication can be made between a service provider, a terminal and a user identity module using any of the two authentication schemes. Then a user can access content on any terminal device using the content license based on the user's identity.
Abstract:
A method of playing back content based on digital rights management (DRM) between a portable storage and a device and a portable storage for the same are provided. The method includes requesting the portable storage to set a playback right for content protected through DRM, receiving an encrypted playback right for the content protected through DRM from the portable storage, and decrypting the encrypted playback right and playing back the content protected through DRM using the decrypted playback right.
