Abstract: According to an exemplary embodiment, a method for brokering between devices and network services provides a platform for brokering between at least one device and at least one service group, and uses a brokering service module on the service platform to execute: using a computing device to compute a correlation between a thing and another thing, thereby computing a correlation between a thing and a service group of the at least one service group; for a service group of the at least one service group, using the computing device to compute the correlation between each of at least one thing and a service group of the at least one service group; for a device corresponding to the thing, brokering one or more service groups; and for a service group of the at least one service group, brokering one or more devices corresponding to one or more things.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a method comprises installing at least one application in a gateway, wherein the gateway is an anchor gateway and the at least one application corresponds to a profile; generating, by the anchor gateway, a gain value of the at least one application according to the profile; and determining, according to the gain value, whether to open or close the at least one application, or whether the at least one application is executed in the gateway or in another gateway. An application managing device and a system thereof are also provided.

Abstract: A server for management and sharing of personal digital resources. The server includes a communication unit, a storage unit and a computing unit. Via the communication unit, the computing unit communicates with users on internet for the digital resources of the users. The users and the digital resources of the users are archived in the storage unit. The behavioral preferences of each user regarding his own digital resources and the access rights to the digital resources that each user sets for other users are also recorded in the storage unit. The digital resources include terminal devices and internet services. Based on data contained in the storage unit and via the communication unit, the computing unit manages the digital resources of each user and the digital resources are shared between the users.

Abstract: An electronic device, a positioning method, a positioning system, a computer program product, and a computer-readable recording medium are provided. The electronic device includes at least one wireless transceiver, at least one measurement unit (MU), and a processor. The processor is coupled with the wireless transceiver and the MU. The processor obtains distances between a plurality of participant devices through the wireless transceiver, wherein the participant devices include the electronic device. The processor obtains a displacement of each of the participant devices through the wireless transceiver and the MU and determines the spatial location of each of the participant devices according to the distances and the displacements.
