Abstract: A Persona Based Interface associates a user's persona with a simple instant message request to a remote service. When the Persona Based Interface receives a simple instant message request from a user, the Persona Based Interface transforms the user's request based on the persona, and forwards the request to the remote service. After receiving a response to the request, the Persona Based Interface transforms the response into a simple instant message based on the persona.

Further, the method includes estimating a user's biological activity based on the determined user's location and the user's bio-signal; transmitting the content corresponding to the user's biological activity; receiving the content corresponding to the user's biological activity from the content providing server; and providing the received content.

Abstract: Provisioning remote access points for use in a telecommunication network. A remote access point contains identity information established during manufacturing; this identity information may be in the nature of a digital certificate. The identity information is stored in the remote access point, and may be stored in a Trusted Platform Module if present. When the remote access node is powered up in unprovisioned state, outside the manufacturing environment, it attempts to establish an internet connection via a first wired interface, and queries a user for information representing the TCP/IP address of its controller via a second wired interface. Once an internet connection is present, and a TCP/IP address has been provided, the remote access point attempts to connect to the controller at that address. Once a connection is established, controller and access point exchange and verify each other's identities.
