Abstract

A wireless end-user device has a wireless modem, a network stack configurable to receive and transmit data via the modem and a wireless network, and two Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) available to device applications. The first API allows applications to open and use data flows via the network stack. The second API allows applications to make data transfer requests for media objects associated with network resource identifiers. The second API prompts a media service manager to manage network data transfers for the media object via the network stack. A service classification agent associates wireless network data usage for the media object network data transfers with the device application making the request.
