Abstract: Systems and methods for distributed energy services management are disclosed. A particular embodiment includes: receiving an input command via a network interface at a site gateway, the input command including information for controlling one or more physical devices at a site; converting, by use of a data processor, the input command to a virtualized command in a common command format; executing, by use of the data processor, one or more executor modules to cause execution of one or more corresponding virtual devices associated with the virtualized command; and using the executed one or more virtual devices to control the corresponding one or more physical devices at the site.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and client electronic device for rendering a radio media data file on a client electronic device. An indication of the user's desire to add the radio media data file to a media library file is received from the user of the client electronic device. In response to receiving the indication, the media library file is amended to define the radio media data file.

Abstract: A media distribution system, method, and computer program product for storing a plurality of media data files within a media repository. One or more of the plurality of media data files are identified within a file catalog. A data request is received, using a standardized protocol, from a client electronic device. Data is provided, in response to the received data request, to the client electronic device in a third party usable format. A user of the client electronic device is enabled to browse/search the file catalog and identify one or more media data files chosen from the plurality of media data files.

Abstract: A media distribution system and method for storing a plurality of media data files within a media repository. A user of a client electronic device is enabled to access one or more media data files chosen from the plurality of media data files. The user of the client electronic device is enabled to manage one or more subscription accounts associated with the media distribution system.

Abstract: A computer-based method and system for distributing information from a source to a service that is to process the information. The distribution system provides a node hierarchy of distribution nodes and service nodes. The node hierarchy has a root node, which is a distribution node, that receives information that is to be distributed to a service node. The root node passes the received information to its child nodes, which may be either distribution nodes or service nodes. Each child node may determine whether or not to accept the information for further distribution or for servicing. If a distribution node accepts the passed information, then it passes the information to each of its child nodes. The information is thus passed down the node hierarchy through distribution nodes to service nodes that will accept and process the information.
