Abstract: Described herein is a hoisting block for a crane. The hoisting block includes an engaging element such as a load hook, to which a lifting tool such as a sling or a hoisting frame can be coupled. The hoisting block is provided with winches, outgoing winch cables of which are configured to carry the lifting tool to the engaging element and couple it to the engaging element. Also described herein is a crane provided with the hoisting block. The hoisting block can be applied for carrying a lifting tool to an engaging element and coupling it to the load-bearing means, or for stabilizing an engaging element relative to a support structure.

Abstract: The method includes interacting between a first proximity transceiver which is associated to the customer device, and a second proximity transceiver; and generating thereby interaction information. The method further includes defining an TR069 Management protocol object called proximity-object and defining thereby at least one TR069 Management protocol parameter related to the interaction information, and furthermore interchanging between the server device and the customer device at least one name-value pair of the at least one parameter of the proximity-object by means of TR69 Management protocol messages.

Abstract: The method for installation of an application at a customer device by a server in a remote procedure call protocol environment includes applying a proximity based interaction at the device and providing thereby interaction information. The method further includes retrieving by a retriever, based upon the interaction information an application identification from a proximity server, forwarding by a first forwarder an initiation message towards the server that comprises the application identification for initiating the installation, and installing by the server, upon reception of the initiation message and according to the remote procedure call protocol, the application according to the application identification, on the customer device.

Abstract: A communications network that includes an originating Real Time Data over IP host and a terminating Real Time Data over IP host between which communication is to be effected. The network also includes communication controller for receiving information relating to the communication. The network also includes a communication forwarder that receives at least some data sent between the two Real Time Data over IP hosts and which sends to the communication controller information relating to the communication.

Abstract: The invention relates to a communications network that includes an originating Real Time Data over IP host and a terminating Real Time Data over IP host between which communication is to be effected. The network also includes communication control means for at least receiving information relating to the communication. Furthermore the network also includes communication forwarding means which receives at least some data sent between the two Real Time Data over IP hosts and which sends to the communication control means information relating to the communication.
