Patent number: 8190753Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to systems and methods for protecting emergency response services in telecommunications systems from attack. In one example, a system may include a network, a token generator, and a token validator. The network may be configured to communicate with a client via a network interface. The token generator is coupled to the network and configured to generate at least one token based on information associated with the client. The token contains sufficient information for the network to independently validate the client when an emergency response service request is sent by the client to the network. The token validator is coupled to the network and configured to perform a validation process on the token when the token is sent by the client to the network over the network interface. The network is configured to connect the emergency response service request only if the token is validated.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2006Date of Patent: May 29, 2012Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventor: Nhut Nguyen

Publication number: 20120128334Abstract: An apparatus and method for combining multimedia data are provided. The method includes obtaining first multimedia content from a first source, obtaining second multimedia content from a second source, selectively combining the first multimedia content with the second multimedia content, and outputting the selectively combined multimedia content. According to implementations of the invention, selected portions and/or fragments of multimedia content may be mashed up rather than the entirety of the multimedia content from either or both sources. Also, the mashup of the multimedia content may be varied and adapted based on the characteristics of the device performing the mashup as well as the characteristics of the available transport mechanism. Finally, implementations of the invention provide for flexible transformation and precise synchronization among multimedia elements.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2011Publication date: May 24, 2012Applicant: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO.

Patent number: 7979734Abstract: A method for preventing service disruption for a device in a network is provided. The method includes populating a filter list with an IP address declared to be valid for a server in the network and populating a rainy day list with an IP address discovered to be valid for the server. The method also includes requesting a DNS server to resolve a server domain name to a server IP address. When no response to the request is received, an IP address on the rainy day list is used to attempt to contact the server. When a response is received, the received IP address is compared to an IP address on the filter list or the rainy day list. When the received IP address matches an IP addresses on the filter list or the rainy day list, the received IP address is used to contact the server.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2007Date of Patent: July 12, 2011Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Scott Fang, Nhut Nguyen
