Abstract: A client computing device (115) determines a desired adjustment to a transmission rate of a media stream (245) received from the content server device (110), and encodes the desired adjustment to the transmission rate in an object ordering priority (255) field of a request (250) for a media portion (215). The client computing device (115) sends the request (250) to the content server device (110) to adjust the transmission rate of the media stream (245) with respect to the media portion (215). The content server device (110) receives the request (25) for the media portion (215) from the client computing device (115), and adjusts the transmission rate of the media stream (245) based on the object ordering priority (255). The content server device (110) transmits the media portion (215) to the client computing device (115) via the media stream (245) at the adjusted transmission rate.

Abstract: Computer controlled method, network server (42, 43, 44, 46, 48) and system (40) for detecting data patterns in a data stream (36) received by a computer (30). The data stream (36) comprising a plurality of data symbols. The computer (30) executes a finite automata (10) comprising a plurality of states (11, 12, 13, 14, 15) including a start state (11) and at least one accepting state (15). State transitions (16) are triggered by a data symbol (17a) according to a state transition register (17) and the method comprises the steps of determining (21), by the computer (30), from a data symbol register (18) whether a data symbol of the data stream (36) is comprised in a group of data symbols not resulting in an accepting state (15), and triggering (22), by the computer (30), a transition (16) to the start state (11) for data symbols comprised in the group and a transition (23) to a state (12, 13, 14, 15) according to the state transition register (17) for detecting the data pattern otherwise.
