Abstract: A system for accessing protected content within an intranet includes a remote UI server capable of providing the remote user interface (UI) service, and a user entity capable of initiating the UI service with the remote UI server. In addition, the system includes a DRM agent capable of being accessed from the user entity over the remote UI service, where the DRM agent is located across the intranet from the control point. To effectuate modification of a rights object associated with a selected content item, the user entity is capable of operating the accessed DRM agent over the remote UI service. In this regard, the rights object is capable of being modified such that the selected content item can thereafter be accessed based upon the modified rights object.

Abstract: A method and system for status communication within a cellular telecommunications network, and especially a 3rd Generation (3G) mobile network, such as the new UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System) are provided. In the method information is communicated to a user terminal about abnormal condition occurring during an ongoing call in a cellular telecommunications network in which an element (404, 602) controlling the connection is separate from a system part providing transport of user data (401, 401). In this method, existence of an abnormal condition in the status of the connection is detected in a system port of the network providing transport of user data and forwarded to the element controlling the connection. This element then determines the state of the connection to the user terminal based on the received message, and subsequently forwards information about the state of the connection to the user.

Abstract: A method and system of providing group management for IMS conferencing services involves creating side control channels for membership control services. The membership control channel can use Client Group Management Protocol (CGMP) or alternate group management protocols. The membership channel can use HTTP, SIP, or other transport protocols. Group management protocol primitives and procedure calls can be communicated using SOAP or other XML-based protocols.
