The present invention is an information processing apparatus which obtains identification information of an electronic device and makes communication with the electronic device via a network based on the identification information. When a portable telephone (11) is placed on an input display section (2) of a personal computer (1), a reader/writer built in the personal computer (1) reads a telephone number of the portable telephone (11) stored in an RF tag built in the portable telephone (11). Based on the telephone number, a telephone line is connected between the portable telephone (11) and the personal computer (1). Data is interchanged between the portable telephone (11) and the personal computer (1) via the telephone line.

A method for sharing content of a device is provided. The method includes receiving, by an inputter, an input of a share command of a selected content, recommending at least one service to share the content among a plurality of services that are available in the device and a share target, and sharing, by a controller, the content with the share target selected through the selected service based on a selection input with respect to the at least one recommended service and the share target.

A system and method are provided for transferring data from a first mobile device to another device by determining a set comprising one or more items, initiating a first transfer of at least some data associated with at least one of the one or more items to the other device, detecting an interaction with the set, and enabling a second transfer of additional data associated with the set.

A document signing platform implemented on one or more computers implements a process for capturing data evidencing valid execution of a document. The process comprises: receiving, from an originator computing device, a submission comprising a document to be signed by a signatory; providing the signatory electronic access to the document and to an indication of a set of one or more substantiation actions to be performed; and receiving and recording event data from a signatory device associated with the signatory. The event data includes data associated with affixation of an electronic signature to the document, and additionally includes substantiation event data representing performance of the set of one or more substantiation actions on the signatory device. The process further comprises validating completion of the set of substantiation actions based on the received event data; and generating a certificate of evidence that comprises at least some of the event data.

A system for communicating media is disclosed. Such a system may include, for example, a media broken into a plurality of independent segment files that may represent sequential portions of the media. One of the segment files can be encoded to have a format that is different than the encoded format of another one of the segment files. The formats may be chosen to allow outputting of information in the segments at different rates. A list may include network addresses for the segment files, and a content delivery system may be deployed to distribute media content to remotely located requesting devices by sending the segment files in response to requests for the segment files.

A mobile terminal, including a wireless communication processor; a touch screen; and a controller configured to: execute a first function specifying a counterpart, and execute a second function in combination with a display of a first menu for transmitting at least one or more contents selected by the second function to the specified counterpart through the wireless communication processor, in response to an execution command for executing the second function within a prescribed time from a timing of executing, suspending or ending the first function.

Methods and systems for vicarious downloading or uploading of information are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, such a system involves a mobile device that includes a memory device capable of storing information or content, and at least one wireless communication component. The mobile device further includes a processing device coupled at least indirectly to the memory device and to the at least one wireless communication component, and a power source. The processing device is configured to determine at least one characteristic/condition pertaining in at least some manner to the mobile device. Also, the mobile device is configured to send a command message to another device when the at least one characteristic/condition is determined, the command message being configured cause the other device to perform vicariously a downloading or uploading of the information or content on behalf of the mobile device.

This application provides an image classification method and an electronic device. The image classification method includes: detecting, by a first electronic device, a connection to a second electronic device; allowing, by the first electronic device, a data access request of the second electronic device; sending, by the second electronic device, request information to the first electronic device, where the request information is used to request information about an image in one or more image sets, and each of the one or more image sets is obtained by the first electronic device by classifying images shot by a camera of the first electronic device; sending, by the first electronic device, response information to the second electronic device; and displaying, by the second electronic device, information about each image set by using a display.

A mobile terminal is presented. The mobile terminal includes a display module, a short-range communication module configured to perform short-range communication, and a controller configured to search for at least one device available for short-range communication via the short-range communication module, acquire location information of the at least one searched other electronic device, and display the at least one searched electronic device reflecting the acquired location information on the display module.

Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for intelligent media sharing with visualized positioning layout in real time. A floor plan is retrieved corresponding to the physical location of a sender electronic device. A zone boundary corresponding to the physical location of the sender electronic device is determined. A list of potential recipient electronic devices within the zone boundary is generated. A floor plan view is rendered on the sender electronic device. A graphical representation of the potential recipient electronic devices on the floor plan view is rendered, overlaid in a semi-transparent manner with a media selection interface on the sender electronic device. A selection is received for one or more media items using the media selection interface. A send request is received for one or more potential recipients, resulting in sending the one or more media items to at least one potential recipient in response to receiving a user interface request action.
