Abstract: Disclosed are a system, a server, and a method for information provision. A method for information provision includes receiving, from a terminal device of a vehicle, sensing information and location information detected by the terminal device of the vehicle, generating present environment condition information by regions by using the received sensing information and location information, and based on a service request being received from the terminal device of the vehicle, transmitting the environment condition information to the terminal device of the vehicle. Accordingly, a server may provide, on a real-time basis, environment condition information related to weather using sensing information detected by a terminal device of a vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle terminal device is provided. The vehicle terminal device includes a first communicator configured to communicate with an apparatus included in the vehicle using a first wireless communication, a second communicator configured to communicate with an apparatus outside the vehicle using a second wireless communication, a detector configured to detect state information of the vehicle, and a controller configured to control the second communicator to broadcast an accident alert message for alerting of an accident involving the vehicle to at least one of an apparatus included in an adjacent vehicle or a traffic management device in response to a determination of the accident based on the state information of the vehicle detected through the detector, and control the second communicator to transmit at least one of information received from the apparatus included in the vehicle through the first communicator or the state information of the vehicle detected through the detector, to an external server.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for sharing media using a social network in a communication system are provided. A method of a transmit terminal for sharing media using a social network includes transmitting to a media server, identification information relating to at least one counterpart terminal, generating media comprising location information associated with the media, and registering the generated media to the media server. A method of a receive terminal for sharing media using a social network includes transmitting to a media server, identification information relating to at least one counterpart terminal, transmitting location information of the receive terminal to the media server, and receiving from the media server, media corresponding to the location information among media registered by the at least one counterpart terminal.

Abstract: A user terminal apparatus includes a storage to store use log information on the user terminal apparatus, a communicator, when an event to receive a service from an external apparatus occurs, to transmit use log information required to provide the service to the external apparatus selectively, and a controller to receive a service generated based on the transmitted use log information and customized to the user from the external apparatus.

Abstract: A system and a method of providing location-based information, through a location-based display, targeted content detected by using information about a user who checks in or checks out a zone based on the location-based display are provided. A server may be configured to receive, in real time, information about a first user and identification (ID) information of the zone from a computing device through a first communication unit as check-in or check-out of the computing device with respect to the zone is detected, obtain content database (DB) information from an external device through a second communication unit by using the ID information of the zone, detect targeted content by using the information about the first user and the content DB information, and transmit the targeted content to a display provided in the zone through the first communication unit.

Abstract: Provided is a multimedia data generation method which includes allocating one or more pieces of image object information to each of a plurality of nodes, generating a scene tree by linking nodes according to correlation between the object information allocated to each node, and adding an event execution level attribute to each node, wherein the event execution level attribute determines whether to execute an event by using the image object information allocated to each node, thereby generating multimedia data in which the added event execution level attribute is represented with a scene description language and recorded on an area of a scene descriptor.
