Abstract: Content delivery to end user devices (EUD) is controlled by transmitting content portions at a controlled flow. The time for the EUD to process the data is used to control the flow. The first portion is transmitted to the EUD and the amount of time to process the first portion is noted. Threshold values to stop and start transmissions are examined prior to the transmission of each content portion. If the amount of data remaining to be processed by the EUD is below the stop transmission threshold, transmission continues with the next portion. If the amount of data remaining to be processed by the EUD is above the stop threshold, transmission is either stopped or retarded. When it is determined that the amount of data remaining to be processed by the EUD is above the start transmission threshold, transmission is started or continued.

Abstract: A technique and system that generates transcoded media files from requested original compressed media files, and then transmits the transcoded media files to a requester rather than the original compressed media files. Advantageously, the disclosed solutions provide a more bandwidth efficient downloading of media files to a requesting device. In addition, the disclosed solutions also fully support the seek function that is typically employed in media player devices. By correlating the requested original compressed media files time-wise with the generated transcoded media files, seek requests generated by a requesting device can be mapped to the appropriate or a close proximity to the transcoded media file.

Abstract: Web pages delivered to a mobile device having viewport functionality and modified to include toolbars that are automatically adjusted to conform to the characteristics of the mobile device and browser operating on the mobile device. As a ML file is transferred to the mobile device, the characteristics of the mobile device are identified and the toolbar is inserted into the ML file such that the toolbar will overlay a portion of the webpage and be visible to the user. The toolbar is inserted by using an US that can execute in the mobile device and detect changes or actions that result in modifying the display of the toolbar.
