Abstract:
This invention relates to methods and apparatuses for implementing remote provisioning of a downloadable identity module into one of several Trusted Environments (7) available at a mobile device (1). A server (2) performs a selection of one of the Trusted Environments (7) available at the mobile device (1) for which at least one of one or more home operators (3) can provide downloadable identity modules, selects one of the one or more home operators (3) which can provide downloadable identity modules for the selected Trusted Environment, and manages the provisioning of a downloadable identity module to the mobile device (1).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to auto-provisioning of authentication data for client devices. A registration server includes a gateway determination unit, which is configured to determine a gateway apparatus transferring a request signal from a device, and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured to transmit a first signal including a token and first access information of the gateway apparatus to the device if an identifier of the gateway apparatus is stored on the server, and to transmit a second signal indicating a positive response to the gateway apparatus when it obtains the token and the identifier based on a third signal received in response to the first signal. The gateway apparatus sends the secret value to the device when it receives the second signal.
Abstract:
There is provided a method in a node of a communication network. The method comprises establishing communication with a device, selecting a message according to a node profile, sending the selected message to the device; and updating the node profile according to the behavior of the device.
Abstract:
A mediation server which is able to communicate with a plurality of account managing servers (104) and mediates requests for issuing subscription information transmitted from a plurality of communication devices between each communication device and any one of the plurality of account managing servers (104), the mediation server comprising, a selection unit configured to select the account managing server to which the request is to be transmitted based on information regarding a current operational status of each account managing server stored in a database, when the request is received from the communication device, and a transmission unit configured to transmit the request for issuing the subscription information to the selected account managing server.
Abstract:
Process for operating a high temperature fuel cell stack, the process comprising the following steps: b) connecting the fuel cell stack in parallel to a power supply unit at a predefined temperature and/or voltage of the fuel cell stack, h) applying a voltage from the power supply unit of between 700 to 1500 mV per fuel cell across the fuel cell stack irrespective of the electro-motive force of the fuel cell stack, i) heating up the fuel cell stack from the predefined temperature to operation temperature while maintaining the voltage per fuel cell the power supply unit, j) maintaining the fuel cell stack at or above a predetermined operation temperature and/or above a predetermined voltage until the fuel cell stack is to be put into operation, k) supplying fuel to the fuel cell stack, l) disconnecting the power supply unit followed by m) connecting a power-requiring load to the fuel cell stack.
Abstract:
A method and arrangement for supporting network searches for information or content using one or more web-based search engines. When a search query is received (1:2) from a terminal user (A), a refined search query is created (1:4) from the received query based on a user profile (104) of the user. A network search is then made (1:5) in at least one search engine (106) using the refined search query. An aggregated search result from said network search is finally delivered (1:6) in response to the received search query.
Abstract:
A method is provided which enables ratings data registered by a number of users for a first service and at least one corresponding service to be collected, wherein each user have been federated for a Single-Sign-On (SSO) on the first service as well as on the corresponding service/s. In response to a request for a set of ratings data received from a user requesting for the first service, a group of users is identified and the SSO identity of each SSO federated user of the identified group of users is mapped to one or more service identities of the respective SSO federated user. The mapping enables ratings data associated with the SSO users of the identified group of SSO users to be collected and normalized, such that the requested ratings data can then be provided to the requesting user in a unified format.
Abstract:
A method for intermediating a plurality of network operators and one or more developers is provided. The method includes the steps of: obtaining, by an obtaining unit, a requirement about a computer program required by each network operator; integrating, by an integration unit, mutually-related requirements among the obtained requirements into one requirement; generating, by a generation unit, information about the necessity for development of a computer program implementing the integrated requirement; and presenting, by a presentation unit, the one or more developers with the integrated requirement and the information about the necessity.
Abstract:
A distribution method and apparatus for distributing multimedia files from service providers (20) to subscribers (30) is described herein. A multimedia communication system (10) includes multiple service providers (20). Each service provider (20) includes a media server (22) and promotion server (26), where the promotion servers (26) of different service providers (20) inter-connect via a resale gateway(40). A promotion server (26) in a first service provider (20) monitors the inventory of multimedia files stored in the corresponding media server (22), identifies the multimedia files having at least one use requirement that satisfies a predetermined criteria, and promotes the identified multimedia files. The promotion server (26) may promote the identified multimedia files to subscribers (30A) of the first service provider(20A) using a weight-based approach. Alternatively or additionally, the promotion server (26) may promote the identified multimedia files to other service providers (20B) by offering the identified multimedia files to other service providers (20B) in the communication system (10) via the resale gateway (40).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the field of location databases containing position related information, and specifically to a method of providing quick and accurate response to users requesting location dependant data from such database. This speed-up in response is done by storing information that is related to most probable path for travelling users on top of database stack and therefore is easy to find and sent to requesting users.
