Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily generate media mixes for a program participant based at least in part on media library inventory information provided by a plurality of program participants. SOLUTION: Individuals that decide to be program participants are interested in organizing, maintaining and playing their music partially based on data derived from a population of other participants. A program participant is required to send data showing the program participant's media inventory, and a system is required to receive data of the list. The system or a program determines the relative similarity of each item from the collection of program participants as compared to each item and from the similarity information clusters of similar items are identified. The clusters can be used to identify clusters of similar items in an individual program participant's media library, and mixes of similar media items can be created therefrom.

Abstract translation: 要解决的问题：至少部分地基于由多个节目参与者提供的媒体库库存信息容易地为节目参与者生成媒体混合。

解决方案：决定参加计划的个人有兴趣组织，维护和播放他们的音乐，部分是基于从其他参与者群体获得的数据。 程序参与者需要发送显示节目参与者的媒体库存的数据，并且系统需要接收列表的数据。 该系统或程序确定与每个项目相比较的来自程序参与者的集合的每个项目的相对相似性，并且从类似项目的相似性信息集群中确定。 这些集群可用于识别单个节目参与者的媒体库中的类似项目的集群，并且可以从其中创建类似媒体项目的混合。 版权所有（C）2011，JPO＆INPIT

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: A media playing device and server system comprises a media playing device including a program participant's media library of items (e.g. music tracks) and a first server configured to recursively sub-divide a collection of server media items into server clusters of related media items. The system also has a second server which is 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. 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: 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.
