Abstract: Techniques for generating three dimensional image data with brushstroke effects from a two dimensional image is disclosed. One or more three dimensional brushstroke patterns from at least one brushstroke are generated. A two dimensional image is partitioned into one or more color regions. For each color region, each three dimensional brushstroke pattern is transformed to obtain a brushstroke effect. Each transformed three dimensional brushstroke pattern is then applied to each color region to generate a three dimensional image data having the brushstroke effect.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing an N-screen service based on cloud computing. The existing SONF incurs load and costs when discovering, generating and maintaining services. Meanwhile, the apparatus and method provided herein enable to reduce the costs by using cloud computing capabilities, and also to provide more various services, thereby enhancing a user's service satisfaction. By using the apparatus and method, it is possible to serve an alternative to an N-screen service platform architecture, and by further adopting service capabilities of ITU-T and future network features, it is possible to improve service performances and satisfaction.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described for usage recommendation for mobile device.
