Patent number: 9674698Abstract: An approach is provided for generating and/or sharing of at least one key upon registering communication identifiers associated with one or more devices for an anonymous communication session. The approach involves causing, at least in part, a generation of at least one key associated with at least one anonymous communication session. The approach also involves causing, at least in part, a transmission of the at least one key to one or more devices. The approach further involves causing, at least in part, a registration of one or more actual communication identifiers associated with the one or more devices to the at least one anonymous communication session based, at least in part, on receiving the at least one key from the one or more devices, wherein the registration does not expose the one or more actual communication identifiers to the one or more devices of the at least one anonymous communication session.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2014Date of Patent: June 6, 2017Assignee: Nokia Technologies OyInventor: Roope Aleksi Rainisto

Publication number: 20140310349Abstract: An example approach is provided for establishing relationships among devices and users. A token sharing platform causes, at least in part, a selection of at least one token at a first device associated with a first user based, at least in part, on initiating a request to establish and/or modify a record indicating a relationship between the first user and at least one second user. By way of example, the at least one token represents the at least one second user at the first device. The token sharing platform then causes, at least in part, a transmission of the at least one token to at least one second device, wherein the at least one second device is associated with the at least one second user and the at least one token represents the first user at the at least one second device.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2013Publication date: October 16, 2014Applicant: Nokia CorporationInventor: Roope Aleksi Rainisto

Publication number: 20140181709Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer program product are described that provide a way for a user's interaction history with an object to be considered such that the user's preferences for consuming the object may be anticipated. A record that includes an interaction history of an object may be accessed, and a manipulation operation may be determined based at least in part on the interaction history. The manipulation operation may then be automatically applied to the object, so as to prepare the object for consumption by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2012Publication date: June 26, 2014Applicant: NOKIA CORPORATIONInventor: Roope Aleksi Rainisto
