A method for providing content where one device from among a plurality of devices is determined as a device to transmit the content to, based on the attribute of the requested content. Accordingly, device utilization is optimized by providing the content to the device with the highest priority to play back the content based on the attribute of the content.

Method for determining a device to provide with content based on content attribute and electronic device using the same

An apparatus and a method share a comment related to contents in a mobile communication terminal. In the method, a comment regarding a contents file that is being reproduced is received. A comment Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is read from a metadata storage space of the contents file. The comment regarding the contents file is stored in a storage space of the comment URL.

Apparatus and method for sharing comment in mobile communication terminal

Provided is a content recommending method including receiving from second users meta data regarding content belonging to each of the second users having a content preference similar to a content preference of a first user, detecting based on the received meta data a plurality of pieces of recommended content similar to content that the first user is currently using, and outputting information regarding the respective pieces of detected recommended content.

Method and apparatus for recommending content

In one embodiment, a method for segmenting video data in a mobile communication terminal includes acquiring sensor data periodically together with video data during video shooting, and segmenting the video data based on the acquired sensor data.

Apparatus and method for segmenting video data in mobile communication terminal

A method and apparatus for searching for an image are provided. The method includes: determining whether a unique identifier exists in metadata of an input image to be searched for; when the unique identifier exists in the metadata, searching for an original image of the input image in a target device by using the unique identifier; when the unique identifier does not exist in the metadata, extracting a characteristic value of the input image; and when the unique identifier does not exist in the metadata, searching for the original image by comparing the extracted characteristic value with one or more characteristic values of one or more images stored in the target device.

Method and apparatus for searching for image

Methods and apparatuses for managing data. The method includes obtaining first data including a plurality of components, determining at least one component to be reproduced by an external device from among the plurality of components, based on metadata about the external device, and generating second data using the at least one component from the first data.

Method and apparatus for managing data

A method and an apparatus to handover a mobile node between heterogeneous networks using a mobile internet protocol (IP) is provided. The method includes: connecting a mobile node to a movement destination network; obtaining information regarding, or about, the movement destination network; generating a message including the information regarding the movement destination network; and transmitting the generated message to a correspondent node that transmits continuous data to the mobile node.

Method and apparatus for handover between heterogeneous networks using mobile IP

A data stream transmitting and receiving method and apparatus guaranteeing quality of service (QoS), in which the data stream transmitting method includes obtaining information regarding a link characteristic change of a mobile node, which occurs due to a handover of the mobile node between heterogeneous links, and transmitting the data stream to the mobile node based on the obtained information. Accordingly, even when the handover of the mobile node between heterogeneous links is performed, QoS of the data stream can be guaranteed.

Data stream transmitting and receiving method and apparatus for guaranteeing QoS

An apparatus and method relates to transmission of media independent (MIH) handover protocol information, the access point includes a wired interface module to receive, through a wired network, indication information indicating whether an access point that manages a neighboring heterogeneous subnet supports a protocol to conduct a media independent handover (MIH), a storage module to store the received indication information, a frame generating module to generate a frame including the stored indication information, and a wireless interface module to transmit the generated frame to a mobile node.

Method of conducting handover of mobile node, and network system using the same

A quality of service (QoS) securing apparatus and method using a communication protocol is provided. The QoS securing method is performed by a reception side that is receiving data from a transmission side. The method includes generating information about a changed communication environment according to a change in a communication environment of the reception side, and transmitting the information to the transmission side. An exchange of information about a communication environment using the communication protocol between the reception side and the transmission side can inform the transmission side about resources of the reception side, link characteristics, characteristics of a link on a transmission path, etc., thereby securing a QoS of data communication between the reception side and the transmission side.

Quality of service securing method and apparatus

A method of performing handover using subnet information includes: comparing subnet information for the current PoA with subnet information for the new PoA; and determining a layer in which handover is performed, according to whether the subnet information for the current PoA is equal to the subnet information for the new PoA, and performing handover in the determined layer. By comparing subnet information received before a mobile node moves with subnet information received after the mobile node moves, and thus quickly determining whether a change between subnets occurs, and by determining a layer in which handover is performed on the basis of the determination result, it is possible to efficiently perform handover.

Method and apparatus of performing handover using subnet information

Provided are a method and an apparatus for predicting a preference rating for content, and a method and an apparatus for selecting sample content in order to predict a preference rating for the content. In the method of predicting a preference rating for the content, a list of users having similar preferences to a target user is extracted from content usage information collected with respect to the same content, and the target user's preference rating for the content is predicted by applying preference rating information of the users with similar preferences to a machine learning algorithm.

Method and apparatus for predicting preference rating for content, and method and apparatus for selecting sample content

Provided are an efficient handover apparatus and method in a mobile node.
