  • Patent number: 11979315
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for information centric network (ICN) interworking are described herein. For example, a request may be received at a convergence layer of a node. Here, the request originates from an application on the node. A network protocol, from several available to the node, may be determined to transmit the request. The node then transmits the request via the selected network protocol.

  • Patent number: 11900967
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are computer-implemented method, system, and computer-readable storage-medium embodiments for implementing template-based excerpting and rendering of multimedia performances technologies. An embodiment includes at least one computer processor configured to retrieve a first content instance and corresponding first metadata. The first content instance may include a first plurality of structural elements, with at least one structural element corresponding to at least part of the first metadata. The first content instance may be transformed by a rendering engine running on the at least one computer processor and/or transmitted to a content-playback device.

  • Publication number: 20230095431
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are computer-implemented method, system, and computer-readable storage-medium embodiments for implementing template-based excerpting and rendering of multimedia performances technologies. An embodiment includes at least one computer processor configured to retrieve a first content instance and applying a template that results in transforming the first content instance. The first content instance may include a plurality of structural elements. The first content instance may be transformed by a rendering engine running on the at least one computer processor and/or transmitted to a content-playback device. An embodiment of transforming the first content instance includes trimming the content instance based on requirements provided by social media platforms.
