    Abstract: An electronic communications terminal records in a memory a sampled audio segment of sound sensed by a micro-phone. A time stamp associated with timing of the recording of the sampled audio segment is determined and stored in the memory associated with the sampled audio segment. The sampled audio segment and the time stamp are transmitted through a network interface toward a location service client of a network node that determines location of the electronic communications terminal based on correlating the sampled audio segment and other sampled audio segments of the sound received from other electronic communications terminals. A related network node and corresponding methods by terminals and network nodes are disclosed.

    Abstract: A streaming client (100) receives or sends information on a type of node of a node (110, 120, 130) for assisting streaming of data. Based on the information on the type of node, the streaming client selects the node to assist in streaming of data to the streaming client (100). The information on the type of node may be conveyed in a message transmitted from the streaming client (100) or in a message to the streaming client (100).
