Patent number: 8190773Abstract: A system and method for providing access to a web server on an electronic device positioned within a firewall. A gateway device including a gateway server is provided outside of the firewall. The gateway device includes an IP address that corresponds to the same DNS extension that is used in the DNS name of the web server. When a client device attempts to contact the web server through the DNS name, the request is transmitted to the gateway server, which in turn communicates with the web server.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2005Date of Patent: May 29, 2012Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Johan Wikman, Ferenc Dosa, Sakari Palko

Patent number: 8069219Abstract: A method and apparatus for facilitating access to mobile Web servers by any requesting entity from within a network. The mobile Web servers are allocated Uniform Resource Locators (URL), which are discoverable by the requesting entities through conventional use of search engines, service discovery mechanisms, registries, etc. A direct communication link exists between the mobile Web servers and the gateway to allow specific information to be obtained from the mobile Web servers and subsequently advertised by the gateway in the form of an indexed list. The indexed list allows the requesting entities to browse the mobile Web servers sponsored by the gateway for any location specific content/data that may be of interest to the requesting entities. The mobile Web servers facilitate the ability for the requesting entities to influence the content/data that is offered by the mobile Web servers.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2005Date of Patent: November 29, 2011Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Johan Wikman, Ferenc Dosa, Katja Nykänen, Mikko Tarkiainen

Publication number: 20100312760Abstract: This invention relates mobile servers and client devices (150) and the data that is transferred between them and that is browsable in the client device (100). In particular, this invention relates to a method for creating browsable document with personalized and/or context dependent look for the client device (100). In the method for creating a browsable document to be presented on a display, wherein a content for said document is retrieved upon request, context data relating to a personal device is determined. An information on a style relating to said context data is defined and the browsable document is parsed by means of the content and the information on the style.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 12, 2009Publication date: December 9, 2010Inventors: Katja Nykänen, Ferenc Dosa-Racz

Patent number: 7523491Abstract: A mobile terminal operating within a firewall protected mobile domain provides mobile server functionality to requesting entities outside of the protected domain. Links to content contained within, or proximately coupled to, the mobile server are located via registry entries. Internet Protocol (IP) address queries associated with the firewall protected mobile server result in the return of the IP address of a socket gateway. The socket gateway acts as a trusted interface to both the mobile server's domain as well as the requesting entities' domain. The socket gateway intercedes as a relay to setup, maintain, and tear down the communication session between the mobile server and the requesting entity.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2005Date of Patent: April 21, 2009Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Ferenc Dosa Racz, Johan Wikman, Teemu Jalava

Publication number: 20070202884Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for transmitting event information from a remote terminal to subscribers over a network. Remote terminal events, such as a missed call or and SMS messages etc. are routed to a secondary terminal when the subscriber is logged into his or her remote terminal account via a secondary terminal. A subscriber can configure the mobile events for which he or she wants to be notified on a remote terminal. When such an event occurs, and if the subscriber is logged on to his or her remote terminal account, a notifying message is transmitted with some details of the event. The notifying message could be in any one of various unobtrusive forms which minimizes any distraction caused by the message. A subscriber does not have to be in physical possession of his or her remote terminal to be notified of mobile events.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2006Publication date: August 30, 2007Inventors: Katja Nykanen, Ferenc Dosa, Johan Wikman

Publication number: 20070142036Abstract: A method for providing content to a remotely located electronic device, which may be connectable to the Internet, by accessing content on a device (e.g. an Internet server) located near a mobile intermediate device by using the mobile intermediate device (another Internet server) as a “through conduit.” The intermediate device detects other devices in its proximity, lists the detected devices, detects a request to access at least one of the listed Internet servers, and forwards the access request to the listed Internet servers to be accessed. The remote device does not need to know the original content address.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2005Publication date: June 21, 2007Inventors: Johan Wikman, Ferenc Dosa

Publication number: 20060200503Abstract: Network services are provided by a network coupled back-end server that is accessed by an intermediary server such as a reverse proxy server. A service request is received at the back-end server via the intermediary server. The back-end server forms a first document in response to the service request. The first document contains a data generation directive targeted for the intermediary server. The first document is sent to the intermediary server. Additional data is generated at the intermediary server using the data generation directive and a second document is formed using the first document and the additional data. The second document is then sent from the intermediary server to an originator of the service request.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 3, 2005Publication date: September 7, 2006Inventors: Ferenc Dosa, Johan Wikman

Publication number: 20040254957Abstract: A method and a system for modeling user preferences in a high-dimensional data space (106) wherein data entities are presented as vectors the elements of which are characteristic features thereof, the data entities being clustered into a number of categories, and a set of latent vectors (110, 114) specifying directions in the data space (106). The model is updated on the basis of user feedback; if the feedback (120, 122) concerning a data entity in the data space is positive, the model adapts towards the entity, otherwise away from it. Latent vectors (110, 114) that constitute a set of global mood components are weighted with user-specific weighting factors in order to locate a user-specific mood center in the data space (106) in relation to the current category center (108, 112). The model may be exploited in a web radio computer application transmitting personalized program to the users.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2003Publication date: December 16, 2004Applicant: Nokia CorporationInventors: Heikki Hyotyniemi, Ferenc Dosa Racz
