摘要:
An audience response web server may communicate polling data incorporating a polling question during an interactive polling session running on the audience response web server. During the interactive polling session running on the audience response web server, the audience response web server may also receive response data representing responses to the polling question. The audience response web server may also aggregate the responses to the polling question and communicate results data incorporating the aggregated responses to the polling question during the interactive polling session.
摘要:
A method of providing a software update to a plurality of transmission devices includes receiving, by a processor, a first information signal containing a first transmission device identifier, a first transmission device hardware version identifier, and a first software version identifier. The method further includes wirelessly transmitting a first plurality of data packets in series, wherein each of the first plurality of data packets includes one of a set of data packet identifiers and a portion of an update to software corresponding to the first software version identifier. The method also includes receiving, by the processor, at least one data packet acknowledgment and wirelessly transmitting a second plurality of data packets. The second plurality of data packets includes at least one previously transmitted data packet for which a data packet acknowledgment has not been received by the processor.
