Methods and systems to provide targeted advertising in a subscription television setting, wherein the households that receive the targeted advertisement may retain anonymity. This may be achieved by marrying an anonymization protocol and infrastructure with a mechanism for STB selection and reporting. This anonymizes the set of households that are selected to play an ad, by ensuring that when an STB meets defined criteria and sends a ‘criteria met’ message (during the selection process) or ‘ad shown’ message (during a validation or counting process) to a head end, an STB or household identifier is not revealed, thus anonymizing the household information from the head end. In addition, this allows the head end to control the ad campaign process by advertising only to those households that meet specified criteria, and to count the number of actual instances in which an ad was displayed. The head end is able to count the number of times an ad was displayed, without knowing which particular household(s) viewed the ad.

Controlling non-simultaneous voice and data connections between a mobile wireless device and a wireless network is described. Following a voice connection origination failure between the mobile wireless device and the wireless network, the mobile wireless device sends a voice connection redial request only after closing an existing data connection between the mobile wireless device and the wireless network. The mobile wireless device tunes a wireless transceiver to a second voice connection channel radio frequency that differs from a first data connection channel radio frequency and establishes a voice connection with the wireless network on the second voice connection channel radio frequency.

A short-term content buffer maintains segments of audio and/or video content and the content segments are identified with segment identifiers which enables management and playback of the content segments. In an embodiment, independent video content segments corresponding to a particular broadcast channel can be identified by associated content segment identifiers and the video content segments can be recorded together to generate a single recording of the content.

Various systems and methods for using a user's mood and context to advise a user are described herein. Data may be received at a mobile device, the mobile device associated with the user. A mood of the user is determined based on the data. An event involving the user is identified and advice is provided to the user regarding the event, the advice based on the received data, the mood, and the event.

A method and apparatus for transport format selection in a mobile wireless communication device. During a simultaneous voice and data call, the mobile wireless communication device selects a transport format for proper uplink data transmission. Simultaneous voice and data calls require higher uplink transmit power than voice only calls. The mobile wireless communication device selects a transport format based on the uplink transmit power level. At higher transmit power levels, minimum or zero data rates are chosen to maintain sufficient power for simultaneous voice. Transmit format is specified using a transmit format combination indicator.

Managing radio resources between a mobile device and a wireless network includes at least the following. An application processor in the mobile device classifies radio resources available into at least two distinct sets, a first set of active connections and a second set of potential connections. The application processor forms a measurement message that includes information about the measured radio resources and communicates the measurement message to a wireless network through a transceiver. Before receiving an acknowledgement of the measurement message from a radio network subsystem in the wireless network, the application processor determines at least one parameter included in the measurement message requires updating. The transceiver stops transmitting the measurement message in response to commands from the application processor.

Various systems and methods for organizing knowledge are described herein. A context of a browsing session of a plurality of online resources is identified. User browsing behavior during browsing of the plurality of online resources is tracked. Using a computing device, a relevance metric of the plurality of online resources is determined using the user browsing behavior, with the relevance metric measuring a relevance of the plurality of online resources in view of the context. The relevance metric, an indicia of the context, and the plurality of online resources are stored in a database on the computing device.
摘要:
A method to read selectively system information messages in a mobile wireless communication device. The mobile wireless device receives a first transmission of a multiple segment message through a radio frequency receiver. The mobile wireless device detects decoding errors in at least one of the received segments of the first transmission. In response to detecting decoding errors, the mobile wireless device selectively receives a first subset of segments in a second transmission of the multiple segment message. The mobile wireless device powers down at least a portion of the radio frequency receiver during receive time intervals for a second subset of segments in the second transmission. The first subset of segments in the second transmission corresponds to segments in the first transmission received with decoding errors. The second subset of segments in the second transmission corresponds to segments in the first transmission received without decoding errors.
摘要:
A mechanism is provided for embedding an object in a receiving or client document such that a client application may operate on the embedded object to include interrogation and modification of data contained in the embedded object. When a given document object is embedded into a receiving document, data representing the embedded object is saved to a data stream storage for the receiving document. When the embedded object in the receiving document is subsequently requested in response to an operation executed on the embedded object, the receiving application obtains the data representation of the embedded object from the data stream storage. Once the receiving application obtains the data representation of the embedded object, the receiving application may perform operations on the embedded object by accessing the embedded object via its data representation.
