Abstract:
A display apparatus and a method of controlling the same are provided. The display apparatus includes: a signal processing unit which processes an image signal; a display unit which displays an image thereon corresponding to the processed image signal; a communication unit which communicates with a server which stores a plurality of application programs; and a controller which requests information about the plurality of application programs from the server, determines whether the application programs can be properly performed in the display apparatus based on the information received corresponding to the request, and controls the communication unit to receive only at least one application program that can be performed properly among the application programs. Accordingly, a display apparatus is capable of receiving only at least one application program that can be performed in the display apparatus from a server.
Abstract:
A method for providing widgets according to broadcast service information and a broadcast receiving apparatus using the same, are provided. The widget-providing method receives and outputs a broadcast, which is selected by a user, and displays one of a plurality of widget groups based on the acquired information of the selected broadcast.

Abstract:
A method for verifying authority information to determine whether content are created according to the authority assigned to each content provider (CP), and a display apparatus and an authority information verifying system using the same are provided. The method includes transmitting an application created using a program and displaying the application or authority information based on the authority information included with the application. Accordingly, it may be possible to easily check whether received content is created by an authorized CP, and to ensure that only an authorized application programming interface (API) is operated based on the authority information so that unauthorized content can be prevented from being created using an unauthorized API.
Abstract:
A method for providing a content download service and a terminal apparatus applying the method are provided in which the terminal apparatus transmits terminal apparatus information to a first server, the first server transmits the received terminal apparatus information to a second server, and the second server receives a download request for predetermined content based on the received terminal apparatus information. Therefore, it is possible for a user to access the second server and check the terminal apparatus information, even though the terminal apparatus is powered off.
Abstract:
A mobile communication apparatus that utilizes multiple base station/mobile station antennas and a mobile communication method performed therein are provided. The mobile communication apparatus includes a base station having at least two antennas and at least two mobile stations having at least one antenna, respectively. The base station restores weight information and channel status information from feedback signals received from the mobile stations, determines downlink investigation information that results in maximum transmission channel capacity based on the restored weight information and channel status information, selects mobile stations for simultaneous transmission based on the downlink investigation information, and processes data to be transmitted to the selected mobile stations based on the downlink investigation information.
Abstract:
A broadcasting receiving apparatus and a method for providing broadcasting signal relation information are provided. The broadcasting receiving apparatus, which accesses a server through a network, includes a broadcasting signal receiver which receives a broadcasting signal; a channel identifier which identifies a change of a channel of the broadcasting signal, generates a fingerprint corresponding to the broadcasting signal of the changed channel, and receives identification information of the changed channel from a matching server based on the generated fingerprint; and a relevant information provider which receives conditional information that indicates a condition for receiving relevant information of the broadcasting signal if the channel is changed, receives the relevant information based on the conditional information and displays the received relevant information.
Abstract:
A GUI providing method and a GUI providing apparatus are provided. According to the GUI providing method, a GUI from among GUIs for an external apparatus connected to a video apparatus is determined and displayed. Accordingly, if there are many GUIs for an apparatus, a GUI most suitable for the current circumstance is automatically determined and provided to a user.
