摘要:
For streaming data in a mobile communication network, a descriptive file (100) of a stream (200) is provided. The descriptive file (100) comprises a list (110) of delivery source identifiers, e.g. URIs, for unicast delivery of data segments (210) of the stream. A broadcast indicator (120) is selectively added to the descriptive file (100) so as to indicate whether broadcast delivery of the data segments (210) is available. Adding the broadcast indicator (120) and initiating the broadcast delivery may be accomplished on the basis of a popularity of the stream.

A technique for controlling a play-out of a media data stream at a receiving device is provided. The media data stream comprises one or more programs, and each program comprises one or more program components. In a method implementation of the technique, a zone description is defined. The zone description is defined for a media zone for at least one program or at least one program component in the media stream and identifies the media zone for the at least one program or the at least one program component. In a next step, the zone description is associated to a program specific information data segment. The program specific information data segment is part of the media stream and comprises data specifying information at least regarding to the at least one program or at least one program component. The method also comprises transmitting the media data stream towards the receiving device.

Techniques for compressing and decompressing license information for Digital Rights Management are described. A method implementation of a technique of creating for a plurality of client devices or client device groups compressed license information comprises the steps of creating a template and a table. The table comprises at least one first license part common to licenses for the plurality of client devices or client device groups and one or more placeholders for one or more second license parts specific for a dedicated client device or client device group. The table comprises, for each client device or client device group and for a given placeholder, replacement information specific for that client device or client device group. The method further comprises sending the template and table for delivery as compressed license information to the client devices or client device groups.
摘要:
A technique for creating a resource in a cloud computing system is described. A method implementation of this technique comprises providing a plurality of predefined base resource descriptions, each base resource description defining a base resource in the cloud computing system and specifying one or more properties of the base resource, providing a plurality of predefined modifiers, each modifier being applicable to a resource in the cloud computing system to add, remove or change a property of the resource, wherein each modifier is associated with metrics information, and receiving a resource request indicating one or more desired properties for a target resource in the cloud computing system. In response to receipt of the resource request, a selection operation is performed to select a base resource description and one or more modifiers that are to be applied to the base resource corresponding to the selected base resource description to create the target resource in the cloud computing system, wherein the selection operation is based on the metrics information. In a next step, the selected base resource description is deployed to create the corresponding base resource in the cloud computing system, and application of the selected modifiers to the base resource in the cloud computing system is triggered to create the target resource.

A method for a client node (D100) to access an information object (102) located at a node (D500) of a secured network (120) via a network of information (100) wherein information objects (102) are identified by information object identities (IDObj, ID′Obj) and wherein nodes are identified by locators (LGW, LObj), wherein the following is performed at a routing node (D102): —receiving from the client node (D100) an information object identity related to the information object (102), —sending the information object identity to a resolving node (D400) of the network of information (100), the resolving node (D400) being capable of initiating a procedure for sending to the routing node (D102) a locator of a gateway node (D200) interfacing the network of information (100) and the secured network (120), —receiving the locator of the gateway node (D200), —sending a request for the information object (102) to the gateway node (D200) according to the locator, —receiving the requested information object (102) from the gateway node (D200), and —sending the information object (102) to the client node (D100).
摘要:
A method and control of using a content data object associated to a content controlling terminal of a communications network, and receiving a request from a content receiving terminal to get a digital rights data object associated to the content data object, that is required to use the content data object, and initiating a transmission of the digital rights data object from the content controlling terminal to the content receiving terminal, and a control supporting server thereto. Also generating the digital rights data object, receiving a notification to send the digital rights data object to the content receiving terminal, and sending the digital rights data object to the content receiving terminal, and a content, controlling terminal thereto.

Techniques for allocation of a VLAN for a deployment by at least one VM provided on a host in a network. A VLAN manager is adapted to allocate a free physical VLAN identifier to the requested virtual VLAN identifier. The VLAN manager queries a VLAN mapping table for determining a free physical VLAN identifier. In case the physical VLAN identifier for the requested virtual VLAN identifier is in use, a procedure for determining the at least one free physical VLAN is performed. The determination procedure may be based on pre-defined zoning or it may apply a retagging after a free physical VLAN identifier has been calculated, The determined physical VLAN identifier is assigned to the requested VLAN. The VLAN switch devices are instructed about the assignment between the virtual and the physical VLAN identifier in order to apply the assignment of the data packets transported over the requested VLAN.
