  • Patent number: 8130678
    Abstract: Disclosed relates to an automatic fall behind warning method and system applied in a group activity environment. Each individual in the group corresponds to a node and all of such nodes form an independent network. The method initializes an outside node table for the group and gets a link quality index table (LQI table) among the nodes on the network. A table specifying outside and inside nodes for the network topology is generated via an algorithm. Then the method checks if there is a node being disappearing from the outside nodes of the generated table. If not, it updates the outside node table and continues to get a newest LQI table. If so, the node falls behind is confirmed and a warning notice is automatically generated once the disappearing node is not an inside node is verified. Otherwise, the method returns to the step of updating the outside node table.

  • Patent number: 7885273
    Abstract: A method and a system for converting the service types of the devices connected to a control gateway are provided. The system includes a server, an open platform, a control gateway and devices connected to the control gateway. Wherein, the device possesses device description information and is operated in a first device service type; the control gateway is electrically coupled between the open platform and the device, holds or obtains the device description information of the device and delivers the device description information to the open platform; the server provides a plurality of device service contents. The open platform further according to the device description information obtains the device service content corresponding to the device from the server and registers the device service content in the open platform.

  • Patent number: 7814215
    Abstract: A system for controlling the devices connected to a control gateway includes one or more devices, a control gateway, a server and an open platform. The control gateway is electrically coupled to the devices. The server provides a plurality of control gateway base drivers. The open platform is electrically connected to the control gateway. According to the device's description and type information provided by the control gateway, the system automatically downloads a corresponding control gateway base driver from the server, and converts a first device service type into a second device service type automatically by the control gateway base driver. Thereby, other internal bundles on the open platform or external control devices with the second device service type can use the devices connected to the control gateway.

  • Publication number: 20080229324
    Abstract: A system and a method for sharing the e-service resources of a digital home are provided. Two different Java e-service platforms are built in the same Java Virtual Machine. One Java e-service platform supplies a broadband service channel, for example the Open Service Gateway platform, and another Java e-service platform supplies a broadcast service channel, for example the Multimedia Home Platform. Furthermore, in a parent class loader having the inheritance between the two Java e-service platforms, a bridge class module is established. The two Java e-service platforms set their resource references to the bridge class module for sharing the resources.
