Abstract:
An apparatus and method for establishing a network connection in a portable terminal. The apparatus includes a controller, an image acquisition unit, and a code image analyzer. The controller establishes a network connection with a peripheral terminal using network information acquired through a code image. The image acquisition unit captures the code image generated by the peripheral terminal. The code image analyzer analyzes the code image acquired by the image acquisition unit and acquires the network information of the peripheral terminal. The code image includes at least any one of network information of the peripheral terminal, code image generation information, and information on an automatic execution program to be automatically executed after code image recognition.

Abstract:
An apparatus and method control a controllable device in a portable terminal. The apparatus includes a device register unit, an input unit, a memory unit, a gesture detector, a controller, and a contents transmitter. The device register unit registers controllable devices to partial regions of an output screen. The input unit generates input data for controllable device registration or user's input data for controllable device selection. The memory unit stores information of the controllable devices registered by the device register unit. The gesture detector senses a user's input capable of determining direction. The controller detects a controllable device corresponding to the user's input. The contents transmitter transmits contents to the controllable device detected by the controller.

Abstract:
A phone number recommending system and method. A user terminal for generating a phone number recommendation list includes a time information acquisition unit for acquiring information regarding a time taken to perform a call through the user terminal. The user terminal also includes a location information acquisition unit for acquiring information regarding a location where the call is performed. The user terminal further includes a call history generator for generating a call history of the user terminal based on the acquired time information and the acquired location information. The user terminal still further includes a phone number recommendation unit for generating a phone number recommendation list based on the generated call history, a current location of the user terminal, and a current time. The user terminal also includes a display unit for displaying the generated phone number recommendation list.
Abstract:
A device management method and apparatus is provided for managing electronic devices through wireless communication. A device management method of a first device having a list of wireless communication-enabled devices according to the present disclosure includes transmitting a first message requesting second device information, when it is necessary to check connection status of a second device performing wireless communication with the devices contained in the list, comparing the second device previously stored information and the second device information contained in the second message, when a second message including the second device information is received in response to the first message, and transmitting a recovery command message with the first device information, when the second device information included in the second message differs from the previously stored second device information.
