Patent number: 11005903Abstract: A method and system for streaming multimedia data over a communication network. Each segment of multiple segments is associated with at least two data blocks of multiple data blocks. The segments are sequenced according to a unique stream index for one stream associated with multimedia content. The unique stream index for the one stream is assigned a main index that describes multiple streams for the multimedia content. The multiple streams include the one stream. A request for content of the multimedia content is received. The request specifies a data chunk, of the multiple data chunks, that denotes the requested content. The main index is analyzed with respect to the specified data chunk to determine the stream and segments and/or data blocks therein that encompass the requested content. The determined stream and segments and/or data blocks therein are transmitted over the communication network in response to the request.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2019Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Zoltán Ponekker, Ákos Gyimesi, Balázs Vida, József Tamás Ecsédi, Dávid Simon, Sándor Lovász

Patent number: 10958703Abstract: A method and system for streaming multimedia data over a communication network. Live multimedia content is divided into multiple data chunks. Each generated data chunk: has a first chunk size, is associated with a respective portion of the live multimedia content, and is indexed according to a time associated with the live multimedia content such that each data chunk is associated with a unique time at which each data chunk begins. The data chunks having the first chunk size are stored as the data chunks having the first chunk size are being generated. The stored data chunks having the first chunk size, starting at the one stored data chunk, are converted to data chunks having a second chunk size that differs from the first chunk size. The data chunks having the second chunk size are directly transmitted to a Content Delivery Network (CDN) for subsequent transmission a client device.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2019Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Akos Gyimesi, Gábor Nyerges, Gergely Hodicska, József Péter Kapusi, Balázs Vida, József Tamás Escédi, Gyula Fehér, Zoltán Attila Németh, Sándor Lovász, Dávid Simon

Patent number: 10356146Abstract: A method and device for streaming multimedia data over a communication network. Data associated with multimedia content is received over the communication network. Portions of the data are processed into multiple data blocks. The multiple data blocks are associated with multiple segments by associating each segment with at least two data blocks of the multiple data blocks. The segments of the multiple segments are sequenced according to a stream index. The stream index is assigned to a main index that describes a set of streams for the multimedia content.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2016Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Zoltán Ponekker, Ákos Gyimesi, Balázs Vida, József Tamás Ecsédi, Dávid Simon, Sándor Lovász

Patent number: 9088804Abstract: An on-demand multimedia stream processing system receives multimedia streams from broadcasters and processes the streams for viewing on a wide range of client devices. To decrease the use of computing resources, processing jobs are started and stopped based on user demand. When a multimedia stream is received from a broadcaster, the processing system does not start processing the multimedia broadcast stream until a request for a processed stream is received. The processing system automatically terminates processing jobs when the audience of a processed stream drops to zero or some other stop condition is met.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2012Date of Patent: July 21, 2015Assignee: Ustream, Inc.Inventors: Gyula Feher, Akos Gyimesi, Zoltan Ponekker, Daniel Palffy, Gergely Hodicska, Zoltan Nemeth
