A method of setting a path between peers included in a hybrid P2P network is disclosed. The method comprises transmitting, by a first peer, a primary path setting message for setting a primary path between the first peer and a second peer to the second peer; transmitting, by the second peer, a response message to the primary path setting message including information about a third peer, which is a parent peer of the second peer having a primary path relationship with the second peer, to the first peer; and transmitting one or more messages for setting a vertical candidate path with the third peer between the first peer and the third peer using the information about the third peer.

Peer in hybrid peer-to-peer network and method of setting path between peers and method of communicating between peers

In a multi-source hybrid overlay network including a plurality of peers, an apparatus that recovers missing data occurring in a tree recovery process, acquires data that a peer does not have in a pull method through exchanging buffer maps with a first counterpart peer connected to a primary path recovered in the tree recovery process and at least one second counterpart peer connected to at least one candidate path, and provides data that the first counterpart peer does not have to the first counterpart peer in the push method, when a data recovery policy is a pull method, is provided.

Method and apparatus for recovering missing data in multi-source hybrid overlay network

A peer may receive a peer list from a hybrid overlay management server in response to an overlay network participation request of the peer, may select a first peer from the received peer list, may establish a connection with the selected first peer, and may establish a connection with at least one of second peers. Propagation of the overlay network participation request may be initiated by the selected first peer, and each of the second peers may correspond to a peer that receives the propagated overlay network participation request. One of the established connections may be determined as a primary path, and a communication may be performed through the primary path.

Peer and operating method thereof

Disclosed is a display device connection method for rapidly delivering data to a plurality of display devices. A peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay network including the plurality of display devices as member peers is configured to distribute content. In this case, an overlay management server (OMS) connects first member peers through a network as a tree topology using a source peer providing the content as a root node, and transmits fragments of the content to a child peer based on a number of peers to which each of the member peers is capable of transmitting the fragments of the content for a preset period of time, and the source peer directly transmits the fragments of the content to a second member peer that is not included in the tree topology among the member peers based on a predetermined limit on a hop count.

Display device connection method for rapidly delivering data to plurality of display devices

Provided a proof of play (PoP) method of a digital signage terminal and a digital signage server, the PoP method of the digital signage terminal including obtaining a digital signature and a PoP message generation policy provided by a content owner, generating log data comprising information on a play of at least one piece of content, based on the PoP message generation policy, generating a PoP message using information on the digital signature based on the generated log data, and providing the PoP message to at least one of the digital signage server and the content owner.

Method for proof of play (PoP) of digital signage content

Provided is a method in which a tracker configures a notification condition on the basis of an authorization policy predetermined by a trackee so that a location information server provides a customized location tracking service according to the notification condition. The method includes: (a) registering an authorization policy of a trackee in order to determine whether a location tracking service requested by a tracker will be accepted; (b) configuring a customized location information notification condition by a tracker; (c) requesting the customized location tracking service by the tracker; and (d) providing the customized location tracking service by a location information server on the basis of the configured authorization policy and the customized location information notification condition.

Customized location tracking service

Disclosed herein is a method for synchronizing user registration information in an inter-domain. In this synchronization method, the current position information of a random user is registered through a register message when the user moves from one user agent to another. An up-sync message is transmitted upstream of a tree structure and a down-sync message is transmitted downstream of the tree structure when user registration information is created or changed. The synchronization of the user registration information is carried out in upper and lower session initiation protocol servers/registrars having received the up-sync and down-sync messages, respectively.
