Abstract: A computer-implemented method for conducting an interactive survey in a cable network comprising a head-end infrastructure (110) configured to deliver television programming and applications data via the cable network to a plurality of terminals (120), characterized by: storing, in a users database (131) at a survey manager module (130), profiles of network users; providing at the survey manager module (130) a questions database (133) comprising a plurality of questions, answers and user profile characteristics for which the questions are directed; detecting (201) in the terminal (120) that a new user has been assigned to a terminal; requesting (203) by the terminal (120) a question from the survey manager module (130) via the cable network; presenting (205) the question to the user at the terminal (120) and collecting the answer via the terminal (120); and sending (206) the answer from the terminal (120) to the answers database (134) at the survey manager module (130) via the cable network.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for controlling data network access parameters via a cable television network terminal (120) in a cable television system comprising a headend infrastructure (110) providing data network access to a plurality of terminals (120), wherein the data network access parameters are controlled by a network parameters controller (112), characterized in that it comprises the steps of: providing a data network access controller (130) with a questions database (131), selecting (201) a question from the questions database (131), presenting (202) the question to a user of the terminal (120) and collecting the answer via the terminal (120); and sending instructions from the data network access controller (130) to the network parameters controller (112) to adapting (204, 205) the data network access parameters depending on the received answer.

Abstract: An electronic module for a digital television receiver comprises a multimedia CPU (211), a non-volatile memory block (212) connected with the multimedia CPU (211) via a memory interface (220) and storing a booter application for initializing the start-up of the digital television receiver, and a buffer (213) connected to the memory interface (220), configurable to enable or block access to the memory interface (220) for components (206, 209) external to the module. The invention provides a solution for securing the set-top box elements, including CA system elements and proprietary set-top box software, to prevent unauthorized access to them, their monitoring or replacement.
