Abstract: A system comprising: a media playing device including a program participant's media library of items; a first server configured to recursively sub-divide a collection of server media items into server clusters of related media items; a second server configured to create one or more media item clusters for a particular program participant from items present in that program participant's media library based on the server clusters by performing a method comprising: determining a collection of media items that co-exist in both the program participant's media library and one or more lowest-level server cluster, and recursively agglomerating, into larger participant clusters by adding media items to the participant clusters that co-exist in both the program participant's media library and parent server clusters until each larger participant clusters comprises at least a determined minimum number of media items; and wherein the media playing device is configured to generate a mix of similar media items for playback based on a selection of media items represented in one of the participant clusters.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for assisting in establishing an online communication session between client computing devices. An online communication session invite request message is received from an initiating client computing device, the message includes connection data of the initiating computing device and an online communication session endpoint identifier for an intended recipient. A set of one or more push tokens that are associated with the identifier is determined, where each of the push tokens identifies a client computing device. An online communication session invite message that includes the connection data of the initiating client computing device is transmitted to a set of intended recipient client computing devices that correspond with the set of push tokens. An invite accepted message is received from at least one of the set of intended recipient client computing devices that includes connection data of that computing device. An invite accepted message is transmitted to the initiating computing device that includes the connection data of each accepting computing device to allow the initiating computing device and each accepting computing device to establish a direct peer-to-peer online communication session.

Abstract: Se describen un aparato, un método y un medio legible por máquina para establecer canales de comunicación punto a punto ("P2P"). En particular, en una modalidad, un servicio intermediario realiza una serie de operaciones para servir solicitudes de correspondencia recibidas de un grupo de dispositivos móviles. En una modalidad, el servicio intermediario agrupa las solicitudes de correspondencia en juegos correspondientes con base en la aplicación para la cual las solicitudes se recibieron y una o más variables asociadas con la aplicación. Las solicitudes de correspondencia dentro de cada grupo de correspondencia entonces pueden corresponderse con base en variables tales como el tipo NAT, el tipo de conexión y el lenguaje asociado con cada uno de los dispositivos móviles. Otras variables tales como ubicación geográfica, nivel de experiencia y edad de las solicitudes de correspondencia también pueden usarse para generar las decisiones de correspondencia.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and machine-readable medium are described for establishing peer-to-peer ("P2P") communication channels. In particular, in one embodiment, a matchmaker service performs a series of operations to service match requests received from a group of mobile devices. In one embodiment, the matchmaker service groups the match requests into matchable sets based on the application for which the requests are received and one or more variables associated with the application. Match requests within each match set can then be matched based on variables such as the NAT type, connection type and language associated with each of the mobile devices. Other variables such as geographical location, experience level, and age of the match requests may also be used to render match decisions.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and machine-readable medium are described for establishing peer-to-peer ("P2P") communication channels. In particular, in one embodiment, an invitation service performs a series of transactions to enable P2P communication between two or more mobile data processing devices. Prior to attempting to establish a P2P network communication channel, the invitation service may first collect network information for each of the mobile devices and use the network information to determine if a direct P2P network communication channel is feasible. If a direct connection is feasible, then the invitation service provides for direct P2P communication, pushing the necessary network information to each of the mobile devices. If, however, a direct connection is infeasible or if a direct connection is attempted and fails, then the invitation service may identify network information associated with a relay service. The network information may then be used by any pair of mobile devices to establish a connection through the relay service. In addition, in one embodiment, the invitation service can perform its functions without maintaining any per- connection state information for any of the mobile devices.

Abstract: Registering a client computing device (110) for online communication sessions. A registration server (140) receives a message (3) that has a push token that is unique to the client computing device and a phone number of the client computing device from an SMS (Short Message Service) transit device (130), which received an SMS message (1) having the push token from the client computing device (110) and determined the phone number of the client computing device from that SMS message. The registration server (140) associates the push token and the phone number and stores it in a registration data store (150), which is used for inviting users for online communication sessions.

Abstract: aparelho e método para convidar usuários para sessões online. trata-se de um aparelho, método e meio legível de máquina para estabelecer canais de comunicação não-hierárquica (p2p). em particular, em uma modalidade, um serviço de convite realiza uma série de transações para permitir a comunicação p2p entre dois ou mais dispositivos de processamento de dados móveis. antes de tentar estabelecer um canal de comunicação de rede p2p, o serviço de convite pode primeiramente coletar informações de rede de cada dispositivo móvel e utilizar as informações de rede para determinar se um canal de comunicação de rede p2p direta é viável. se uma conexão direta for viável, então o serviço de convite proporciona comunicação p2p direta, enviando por mpush as informações de rede necessárias para cada um dos dispositivos móveis. se, entretanto, uma conexão direta for inviável ou se uma conexão direta for tentada e falhar, então o serviço de convite pode identificar as informações de rede associadas a um serviço de relé. as informações de rede podem ser então usadas por qualquer par de dispositivos móveis para estabelecer uma conexão através do serviço de relé. ademais, em uma modalidade, o serviço de convite pode realizar suas funções sem manter qualquer informação de estado por conexão para qualquer um dos dispositivos móveis.
