  • Patent number: 7987463
    Abstract: Device management commands to be executed within a terminal and conditions included within a scheduling context for executing such commands are provided to the terminal ahead of time. A server generates a scheduling context (or other type of scheduling information) that includes device management scheduled by the server to allow more effective scheduling to be performed by the terminal. A terminal receives the scheduling context from the server and performs the scheduled device management procedures accordingly.

  • Patent number: 7917476
    Abstract: A device management (DM) system using a log management object and a method for effectively generating and controlling logging data in the system are disclosed. A DM server includes only information that a client can transfer processing of a corresponding command to a logging sub-tree manager in the logging data storage command and transmits it, and an accurate location at which the logging data is to be stored is determined by the logging sub-tree manager by itself by using control information of the logging sub-tree upon receiving the logging data storage command. Each node storing the logging data has a source attribute value and a reason attribute value. Accordingly, the DM server or a scheduling context does not involve in a complicate logging data storage procedure, and when logged node is checked, the particulars of the logged data can be easily recognized.

  • Patent number: 7790307
    Abstract: A battery pack for reducing a memory effect is disclosed. The battery pack includes at least one or more battery cells. A battery cell with the smallest residual voltage is selected from battery cells each having a residual voltage greater than a minimum threshold voltage, and first charged. Power is supplied to a terminal from a battery cell having the smallest residual voltage among battery cells having the residual voltage greater than the minimum threshold voltage, thereby lengthening a life span of the battery pack.

  • Publication number: 20090313326
    Abstract: In related art, the terminal can receive a particular task from a server, and perform the received particular task, only after the terminal reports to the server that a particular event has occurred. But, according to the present invention, the server provides the particular task in advance of the occurrence of the particular event. Therefore, the particular task can be performed by the terminal as soon as a particular event is occurred, so a waste of the network resources can be reduced. Meanwhile, according to the present invention, a routing service is provided between elements within the terminal, so that the elements within the terminal can be separated. In addition, according to the present invention, a source number and a registration number are used for the routing service, so that the routing service can be accurately operated.
