A method and system for quickly selecting a device desired by a user from among a plurality of devices on a home network and playing content included in a portable device using the selected device are provided. The method includes displaying a device list of the plurality of content player devices based on the received descriptions, receiving selection of an item on the device list from a user, sending a device notification request message to a content player device corresponding to the selected item, and executing device notification using the content player device that has received the device notification request message.

A method of synchronizing a plurality of content-directory service (CDS) devices is provided. The method includes retrieving and discovering N CDS devices in a home network by a control point (CP), transmitting a StartSync message that requests the start of synchronization to a certain CDS device of the N CDS devices by the CP, forwarding a StartPeerSync message that informs remaining N-1 CDS devices of the fact that synchronization will be started by the CDS device that has received the StartSync message, and synchronizing each of the N CDS devices with the remaining N-1 CDS devices, in a home network that includes N CDS devices that provide metadata of multimedia content existing in the home network, and the CP that receives metadata from the N CDS devices and requests the media renderer to replay the multimedia data.
摘要:
Provided is a method of efficiently managing a software lifecycle of a controlled device, wherein the method is performed by a controller device in a home network. According to the method, the controller device requests the controlled device to change the software lifecycle only when a predetermined condition is satisfied. Accordingly, the controller device efficiently uses software according to characteristics thereof in the home network.

Provided are a method and apparatus for managing resources of a Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) device based on a connection status of a control point. The method of managing resources of a controlled device includes: monitoring an invocation of an action representing a connection of a control point for a predetermined time; determining whether the control point is connected to the controlled device or not by considering whether the monitored action is invoked or not; and increasing available resources by selectively deactivating an application which is controlled by the control point according to the determination result. Accordingly, the resources of the UPnP device can be effectively managed.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for synchronizing a content directory service (CDSs) of a Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) device. In the method, a CDS, whose content is modified, generates an event message containing information of the modification of the content, and multicasts the event message to a UPnP network. Other CDSs that receive the event message update their content based on the event message. Accordingly, a control point is not required to initiate and does not intervene in a process of synchronizing a plurality of CDSs, thereby reducing load on a memory or a central processing unit (CPU) of the control point, compared to conventional UPnP synchronization of devices. Further, an action of a CDS need not be repeatedly called, thereby reducing network traffic.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for controlling a dispersion recording and playback of a moving picture are provided. The apparatus which controls a dispersion record of a moving picture includes, a recording unit that generates a record schedule when a predetermined moving picture is reserved-recorded, generates a reserved-recording-object when it is a reserved-recording time, and dispersedly records the moving picture in another storage device if an error occurs due to insufficient storage space when the moving picture is recorded; a recording-device-selecting unit that selects a recording device based on the preferences of storage devices before the moving picture is reserved-recorded, and a CDS-managing unit that manages recording information of the recorded moving picture, information of moving picture that has been recorded and the recording device.
摘要:
An apparatus for providing a security service includes a key generation unit which generates a pair of keys including a first temporary public key and a first temporary private key for a network device that will be connected with a network form the outside, a temporary access control list generation unit which generates a first temporary access control list including the first temporary public key for an internal network device, an authentication unit which performs authentication when the network device joins in the network, and a first transmission/reception unit which transmits the pair of keys including the first temporary public key and the first temporary private key to the network device according to the authentication result.

摘要:
A method of effectively managing information shared by synchronizing between a plurality of Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) devices is provided. According to the method, all devices exchange version information of the devices at initial synchronization, and when shared information stored in some of the devices is changed, a device changing shared information transmits new version information to the other devices via an event message, so that all of the devices can maintain the latest shared information. Also, by having a counter indicating an update state of respective parts of shared information, when shared information is changed by a plurality of the UPnP devices, it is easy to recognize which part from among the respective parts of the shared information is the latest.
