Patent number: 9648113Abstract: Applications in a broadcast environment distribute events in real-time to a large number of receivers within specified geographic locations while efficiently sharing bandwidth resources with other applications using the same broadcast network. Applications need not be aware of the other applications sharing the resources, nor of the methods, protocols, and other mechanisms used to actually broadcast the data over the broadcast medium. Server-side applications that serve data, send notifications, or distribute events to specific locations within the network use a broadcast location manager. Client applications that receive such data, notifications, or events use a client location filter to obtain events that are relevant based on the location of the device. The broadcast location manager and client location filter work together to reliably and efficiently transmit data, notifications, and events to specific locations over the broadcast network for all applications involved.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2015Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: ROUNDBOX, INC.Inventors: Amit Khivesara, Xiaofeng Liu, Peter Andrew Mataga, Igor Slepchin, Cary Torkelson, Vinod Valloppillil, Edgar Villanueva

Patent number: 8711696Abstract: Data may be transmitted in a broadcast mode to multiple devices operating in a network. Efficient utilization of bandwidth while providing a desired level of quality of service is enabled for the applications executing on the devices that utilize the broadcasted data. A set of bandwidth constraints may be utilized in combination with a set of heuristics and rules for the allocation and re-allocation of bandwidth among multiple applications in a manner that minimizes the impact on the quality of service metrics of importance to the affected applications when contention exists for the network resources. Quality of service provided to each application may be degraded smoothly, with certain priorities and guarantees being maintained. Event segmentation and reassembly functions for applications may be provided, as well as reliability mechanisms to increase the ability to provide data to client devices that have not been actively receiving for significant periods of time.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2012Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Roundbox, Inc.Inventors: Amit Khivesara, Xiaofeng Liu, Peter Andrew Mataga, Cary Torkelson, Vinod Valloppillil, Edgar Villanueva

Publication number: 20080098420Abstract: A system and associated apparatus and methods for the distribution, selection and display of advertising content for devices operating in a network. The devices need not initiate a point-to-point communication with an ad server to provide the ability to filter received advertising content and enable the display of advertisements that are targeted to a device's user. The invention enables a service provider or network operator to control the policy used to specify the selection, timing, and display of an advertisement stored in a cache of a client device. A modification to the policy can be broadcast and implemented in real-time by the device. Advertisements stored in the cache may be filtered both by the service provider or network operator and by the device itself so as to provide the best selection of ads tailored to the user of the device. The device implements cache management processes to determine how best to maintain the advertisements of greatest relevance to the user of the device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2006Publication date: April 24, 2008Applicant: Roundbox, Inc.Inventors: Amit Khivesara, Howard Lee, Peter Andrew Mataga, Cary Torkelson, Vinod Valloppillil, Edgar Villanueva

Publication number: 20070168523Abstract: A method and system provides the capability for multicast data traffic to flow with a unicast mechanism; that is, for some network entity to send a copy of the MC data session to a specific network address associated with the client. A method of transmitting data traffic comprises transmitting data using a multicast session to a plurality of destinations, determining that the multicast session to at least one of the destinations of the plurality of destinations should be switched to a unicast session to the at least one destination, and switching the multicast session to the at least one destination to a unicast session to the at least one destination.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2005Publication date: July 19, 2007Inventors: Hong Jiang, Peter Mataga, Edgar Villanueva

Publication number: 20070140488Abstract: A method is provided for restricting or enhancing broadcast content access on a per-subscriber basis across a population of subscribers, all of whom have a valid content access key to such content, without necessitating changes to the current standard schemes and protocols for distributing content access keys and broadcasting the traffic keys associated with the broadcast data itself, and without trusting the application that processes the data. A method of handling a multimedia broadcast in a device comprises receiving broadcast content in a media stream encrypted using a traffic key, receiving the traffic key encrypted using a session key, and receiving broadcast attributes encrypted using the traffic key and the session key, wherein use of the media stream by the device is controlled using the broadcast attributes and using an access policy in the device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2006Publication date: June 21, 2007Inventors: Srinivas Dharmaji, Hong Jiang, Peter Mataga, Cary Torkelson, Edgar Villanueva
