  • Patent number: 8966032
    Abstract: A system and method for propagating identification information among a communication device and a server, through an agent installed on the device. Such process optionally and preferably comprises synchronization between the server and the device, through the agent, such that one or both of the agent and the server may optionally “push” or “pull” information.

  • Patent number: 8849242
    Abstract: A system and a method for charging for directed provisioning and using of dynamic content to limited resource devices, through an integrated platform which handles all aspects of aggregation and management of such dynamic content. The integrated platform features a billing system for performing billing actions. The billing system of the present invention interacts with other components of the integrated platform in order to be able to determine the charge for particular triggering events, such as downloading dynamic content, and/or events which are actually triggered by the application itself. The charge is preferably determined according to one of a plurality of rules, as applied by a rules engine of the billing system. These rules are part of a charging policy, which may optionally be determined by the content provider.

  • Patent number: 8818338
    Abstract: A single platform for the provision of multiple services over a cellular telephone network, comprises a generic definition of a cellular service, which is designed to take specific service-defining parameters, and a parameter setting mechanism for inputting respective service defining parameters to the generic definition, thereby to implement a desired service through the generic definition. The platform thus provides an infrastructure to support numerous services, and reduces the development time for individual services since they can be added as plug-ins to the platform using the generic definition which is shared.

  • Patent number: 8274935
    Abstract: The present invention provides for a system and method for communication between a mobile communication device and an auxiliary processing interface. Remote interfacing with an auxiliary processor enables the provision of services available to a mobile communication device through a more user friendly interface, for example, a larger display for visual ease, a full keyboard for quick and easy typing, or mouse for quick maneuvering. Furthermore, such a service affords the opportunity to remotely use the technology and services available on a mobile communication device remotely, for example in the event that it is misplaced, when traveling or at work.

  • Patent number: 8031694
    Abstract: A system and method for flexible data provision to mobile communication devices, which enables the user to selectively download data to the mobile communication device from a remote computer. The selective data download may optionally apply to one or more of a single item of data, to multiple items of data, one or more categories of data and the like. Preferably, the user interface provided through the remote computer comprises a mark-up language document, such as a Web page for example.

  • Patent number: 7283811
    Abstract: A system and a method for directed provisioning and management of user applications on limited resource devices by a content provider, through an integrated platform which handles all aspects of aggregation and management of such applications. By “content aggregation”, it is meant the procedure by which applications are introduced by a content provider, and are then aggregated into a service for provision by that content provider and/or service provider. Preferably, the collected applications may then be examined by the user according to a content directory, which is a hierarchical organization of different applications according to one or more categories and/or attributes. The service provider preferably controls access to the content or user applications by the user, for example according to a subscription of the user and/or capabilities of the limited resource device of the user.
