Abstract: A method is presented for determining bandwidth allocations in a content distribution network that comprises multiple trees, where the root of each tree has a server that broadcasts multiple programs throughout the tree. Each network link has limited capacity and may be used by one or more of these trees. The allocation problem is formulated as an equitable resource allocation problem with a lexicographic maximin objective function that attempts to provide equitable service performance for all requested programs at the various nodes. The constraints include link capacity constraints and tree-like ordering constraints imposed on each of the programs. The algorithm provides an equitable solution in polynomial time for wide classes of performance functions. At each iteration, the algorithm solves single-link maximin optimization problems while relaxing the ordering constraints, selects a bottleneck link and fixes various variables at their optimal value.

Abstract: Methods and devices to modify an electronic document written in a markup language on a mobile communications device with assistance from a server. Objects referenced by the electronic document are evaluated by the server based on predefined object identifying criteria, identifying removable objects which, when rendered on a mobile communications device, may cause readability problems for a mobile user. The server creates a modified electronic document by inserting markup tags around at least one segment of the markup language corresponding to the removable object, and then transmits the modified electronic document to the mobile communications device. The mobile communications device initially displays the document with all objects included. In response to a user input instructing removal of one or more of the removable objects, the mobile device re-displays the document without displaying the one or more removable objects.

Abstract: An adaptive streaming system is described herein that provides a stateless connection between the client and server for streaming media playback in which the data is formatted in a manner that allows the client to make decisions and react more quickly to changing network conditions.   The client requests uniform chunks of media from the server that include a portion of the media. The adaptive streaming system requests portions of a media file or of a live streaming event in small-sized chunks each having a distinguished URL. This allows streaming media data to be cached by existing Internet cache infrastructure. Each chunk contains metadata information that describes the encoding of the chunk and media content for playback by the client. The server may provide chunks in multiple encodings so that the client can switch quickly to chunks of a different bit rate or playback speed.
