Display data processing

A method of processing display data, the display data specifying one or more presentations for displaying on an end-user device to a user of that device, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a first receiving processor, profile information, the profile information comprising information relating to properties of the user or of the end-user device;
• receiving, by a second receiving processor operatively coupled to the first receiving processor, the display data;
• receiving, by a third receiving processor operatively coupled to the first and second receiving processors, one or more criteria, the one or more criteria having been set by a provider of the display data, the one or more criteria specifically related to the properties of the user or of the end-user device;
• selecting, by a selecting processor operatively coupled to the receiving processors, some or all of the received display data;
• and
• providing, by a providing processor operatively coupled to the receiving processors and to the selecting processor, for display by the end-user device, the selected display data;
• wherein condition (i) is that selecting is performed dependent upon the profile information and the one or more further criteria;
• wherein condition (ii) is that providing is performed dependent upon the profile information and the one or more further criteria;
• and
• wherein either or both of conditions (i) and (ii) are fulfilled.

Apparatus for processing display data, the display data specifying one or more presentations for display on an end-user device to a user of that device, the apparatus comprising:

• a first receiving processor configured to receive one or more criteria, the one or more criteria having been set by the user, the one or more criteria specifically related to the presentations;
• a second receiving processor operatively coupled to the first receiving processor, configured to receive the display data;
• a selecting processor operatively coupled to the first and second receiving processors, configured to select some or all of the received display data;
• and
• a providing processor operatively coupled to the first and second receiving processors and to the selecting processor, configured to provide, for display by the end-user device, the selected display data;
• wherein condition (i) is that selecting by the selecting processor is performed such that the selected display data are in accordance with the one or more criteria;
• wherein condition (ii) is that providing by the providing processor is performed such that the display of the selected display data by the end-user device is in accordance with the one or more criteria;
• and
• wherein either or both of conditions (i) and (ii) are fulfilled.

Apparatus for processing display data, the display data specifying one or more presentations for displaying on an end-user device to a user of that device, the apparatus comprising:

• a first receiving processor configured to receive profile information, the profile information being information relating to properties of the user or the end-user device;
• a second receiving processor operatively coupled to the first receiving processor, configured to the display data;
• a third receiving processor operatively coupled to the first and second receiving processors, configured to receive one or more criteria, the one or more criteria having been set by a provider of the display data, the one or more criteria specifically related to the properties of the user or the end-user device;
• a selecting processor operatively coupled to the receiving processors, configured to select some or all of the received display data;
• and
• a providing processor operatively coupled to the receiving processors and to the selecting processor, configured to provide for display by the end-user device the selected display data;
• wherein condition (i) is that selecting by the selecting processor is performed dependent upon the profile information and the one or more criteria;
• wherein condition (ii) is that providing by the providing processor is performed dependent upon the profile information and the one or more criteria;
• and
• wherein either or both of conditions (i) and (ii) are fulfilled.
