A method of displaying content, and an electronic device adapted to the method are provided. The electronic device includes: a communication module comprising communication circuitry; a display; a memory for storing information regarding at least one piece of content; and a processor. The processor: registers a number of cloud servers; obtains at least one piece of content stored in the cloud servers; divides the obtained content into areas, based on the cloud servers; and displays the divided areas on a screen.

Implementations disclosed herein can be used to improve the distribution of digital content in a peer-to-peer network. In certain embodiments, computing devices are mapped into different groups based on location information, and inter-group information, including historical inter-group information associated with at least one of inter-group data transfer rate information and inter-group availability information, is accessed and used to identify a first group of computing devices to send download requests for digital content, wherein the first group includes a first number of idle and available computer devices greater than a number of idle and available computer devices of another group of the computing devices. The download request for the digital content is effected or recommended to be sent from a second computing device mapped to a second group of the computing devices to a first computing device mapped to the first group.

The disclosed embodiments include methods, apparatuses and systems for network based operation of an unmanned aerial vehicle. One apparatus includes a controller. The controller is operative to receive a request for change in a camera view of a camera of a drone from a tele-operator, generate positioning of a reticle of a display of the tele-operator based on the received request for change in the camera view, and generate a camera attitude control based on the received request for change in the camera view, wherein the camera attitude control provides orientation control of the camera of the drone, wherein the positioning control of the reticle is more responsive than the orientation control of the camera.

A method and system of managing downloads of a file from a server. A determination is made of whether or not a number of current connections between a client and the server is less than a preset threshold number, exceeding one, of allowable concurrent connections with the server. If the determination is that the number of current connections is less than the preset threshold number, responsive to a request by the client to download the file pursuant to another connection between the client and the server, the computer establishes the other connection between the client and the server and downloads the file to the client via the other connection. If the determination is that the number of current connections is at least the preset threshold number, the computer denies a request by the client to download the file from the server using another connection between the client and the server.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to transfer a data set via parallel communications are disclosed herein. Example methods include controlling the distribution of portions of a field data set to a network access point via a plurality of parallel communication sessions established by respective ones of a plurality of communication devices with the network access point. Example methods also include comparing a first value based on a respective data transfer rate of a first one of the communication sessions to a second value based on a respective data transfer rate of a second one of the communication sessions to determine whether to establish a new communication session with a third one of the plurality of communication devices. In response to determining to establish a new communication session, a processor instructs a third one of the communication devices to establish the new communication session to transmit a respective portion of the field data set to the network access point.

A method and system of managing downloads of a file from a server. A number of current connections between a client and the server is determined to be at least a preset threshold number of allowable concurrent connections between the server and the client and in response, a request by the client to download the file from the server using another connection between the client and the server is denied. After the request is denied, the number of current connections between the client and the server is determined to be less than the preset threshold number after which the other connection between the client and the server is established and the file is downloaded to the client via the other connection. The preset threshold number of allowable concurrent connections is automatically changed based on a total number of active current connections between server and both the client and other clients.

Client devices act as data sources for other clients, such as in a P2P or P2SP situation. The client devices receive upload configuration information based on information relating to their prior uploads and upload operation. Uploads are provided to other client devices according to the upload configuration information. The client devices adjust an upload configuration based on the received upload configuration information. For example, the client devices adjust an upload bandwidth, an upload speed limit, or blocking/non-blocking status for upload channels.

A system and method that enables editing capabilities of content accessed from a content management server using any type of locally-installed application is provided. In some embodiments, a content management server stores documents in a cache on the user's computer. Documents can thus be accessed and edited using the document in the local file system of the user. For example, users may open, reserve or lock, download, and edit documents with a single user action such as a click. Advantageously, the teachings of embodiments as described can be used in conjunction with content management systems for improving the user experiences involved in editing documents by providing an instant and seamless editing experience substantially equivalent to editing files on a local hard disk.

In one embodiment, there is provided a device implementing a leecher peer, the device including a processor to request a list of seeder peers from a tracker, receive the list, select a first seeder peer from the list from which to download at least part of a content item, start downloading the at least part of the content item from the first seeder peer, receive a message from the first seeder peer indicating a deterioration in an upload flow characteristic of the first seeder peer, in response to receiving the message, request an updated list of seeder peers, receive the updated list, select a second one of the seeder peers from the updated list from which to download another part of the content item, cease downloading the content item from the first seeder peer, and start downloading the other part of the content item from the second seeder peer.

The present invention relates to system and methods for segmented data transmission. One example comprises steps of: connecting a plurality of computerized devices to each other; designating at least one master device from the plurality of computerized devices; designating remainder of devices as slave devices; producing a content originated from said at least one master device; segmenting the content into a plurality of data-streams; transmitting at least one data-stream of said plurality of data-streams to slave devices; uploading said plurality of data-streams to a server-computer; assembling said plurality of data-streams into said content.
