Abstract:
A technique for controlling an electronic device thereof is provided. The technique includes, in response to an attachment device being selected by an external device from a list of attachment devices, receiving and storing mapping information in which data configured in a first communication format and data configured in a second communication format in relation to one function of the electronic device to which the attachment device is attached are mapped. In addition, in response to the data configured in the first communication format being received from an external device which is communicably connected with the attachment device, the data configured in the second communication format corresponding to the data configured in the first communication format based on the mapping information is acquired, and the data configured in the second communication format to the electronic device to control the one function of the electronic device to be performed is transmitted.
Abstract:
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes: a transceiver configured to communicate with at least one wearable device and receive, from the at least one wearable device, status information indicating whether the at least one wearable device is currently being worn; and a processor configured to determine whether to send a notification request to the at least one wearable device based on the status information received by the transceiver.
Abstract:
A method of providing an activity notification is provided. The method includes registering, by the device, information about the activity notification according to a request for registering the activity notification, and transmitting, by the device, the registered information about the activity notification to a management device, wherein the management device performs a process of providing the activity notification.

Abstract:
A method and device for executing an object on a display. The method of executing an object includes receiving a user input to an object displayed on a display; gradually enlarging and displaying the object; and executing the application corresponding to the object as the object is enlarged.
Abstract:
A display apparatus is disclosed. The display apparatus includes: a flexible display configured to include a main region which is concavely bent, a first sub-region extended from the main region and convexly bent to a first side surface of the display apparatus, and a second sub-region extended from the main region and convexly bent to a second side surface of the display apparatus; and a controller configured to control the flexible display so that a user interface (UI) element corresponding to a specific event is displayed on at least one of the first sub-region, and the second sub-region, when the specific event occurs.
Abstract:
A foldable device and a method of controlling the same are provided. The foldable device includes: a flexible display which includes a main display area and an edge display area; and a controller which is configured to determine, based on an angle at which the foldable device is unfolded, a range of a partial activation area of the main display area, wherein the range of the partial activation area is partially bounded by a boundary between the edge display area and the main display area.

Abstract:
Provided are a system and method for providing an object via which a service is used. A server for providing at least one device with an object via which a service provided by a service provider is used includes: a template providing unit configured to provide the service provider with a first template which is used in generating the object, wherein the object is not installed in the device but is displayed on a screen of the device via a host program of the device; a template receiving unit configured to receive, from the service provider, a second template that is generated by the service provider by editing the first template; a template storing unit configured to store the received second template; and an object generating unit configured to generate, using the stored second template, the object via which the service provided by the service provider is used.
