  • Patent number: 9547843
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for locating a mobile terminal by use of messages received to the mobile terminal are provided. The mobile terminal locating method may include creating at least one location related candidate for the mobile terminal by use of a message that is received to the mobile terminal, and determining a location of the mobile terminal by matching the created location related candidate to stored place information. The current location of the mobile terminal may be recognized by simply analyzing the received messages without the need for installation of additional device on the mobile terminal.

  • Patent number: 8661041
    Abstract: A semantic-based searching apparatus and method which can search for desired information from various types of media using associative properties of search target objects are provided. The semantic-based searching apparatus stores an associative search structure that previously stores a semantic index. The associative search structure is to obtain a final search object corresponding to an input search query. The semantic index configuration includes feature metadata used to identify a specific object, semantic entity metadata to indicate semantic entities corresponding to the feature metadata, and semantic relation metadata to indicate a relation between the semantic entities. The semantic-based searching apparatus uses semantic metadata stored in conformity with the semantic index configuration, the semantic index, and the associative search structure to generate a search result corresponding to the input search query.

  • Patent number: 8352985
    Abstract: Provided are method of storing broadcast contents, a method of displaying stored broadcast contents and an apparatus therefor. In method of storing the broadcast contents by analyzing the received broadcast contents, grouping the contents that are similar to each other, and arranging the contents sequentially in time, the method includes classifying a broadcasting signal received from an external broadcast contents provider into an unit segment of a first item, determining at least one keyword representing the first item that is classified into the unit segment, storing the first item as a sub-ordinate item of a first sub contents group according to the determined keywords, and arranging the first sub contents group including the stored first item sequentially in time, so that the progress of specific broadcast contents can be easily identified by each time slot.

  • Publication number: 20110185038
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing a terminal web service capable of being associated with data and/or native operations of a terminal while using a rich internet application are provided. The terminal apparatus includes a web application providing unit and a terminal web service providing unit. The web application providing unit discovers a terminal web service control script, which performs control to achieve association with respect to a terminal web service provided by the terminal apparatus, by executing a client script received from an external web server and to generate a hypertext transport protocol (HTTP) request message for requesting the terminal web service by use of the terminal web service control script. The terminal web service providing unit is configured to, upon reception of the HTTP request message, provide the terminal web service by sending the web application providing unit a HTTP reply message for providing reply information by the terminal web service.
