Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and a device for determining access to multimedia content from an entry identifier, in a domain which comprises a number of entry identifiers, and where the multimedia content is assigned an access number n indicating the number of entry identifiers which may access the multimedia content. This is obtained by accessing a domain list indicating at least some of said entry identifiers in said network domain and by further determining that the entry identifier may access said multimedia content if said entry identifier is between the n entries in said domain list determined by an evaluation rule.
Claims14
A method for determining access to multimedia content from an entry identifier in a network domain comprising:
- a total number of entry identifiers, said method being performed by a system comprising a processor and a non-transitory computer medium coupled to the processor storing executable program instructions that, when executed by the processor, are configured to cause the system to perform said method, said method further comprising:
- retrieving an access number n indicating a number of entry identifiers selected from said total number which may access said multimedia content;
- obtaining an evaluation rule based on determining a category of said multimedia content;
- accessing a domain list linked to said category of said multimedia content, wherein said domain list indicates at least some of said entry identifiers in said network domain;
- and
- determining that said entry identifier may access said multimedia content if said entry identifier is an entry identifier within a range of n entries in said domain list as determined by the evaluation rule linked to said category of said multimedia content.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein instructions that when executed by a processor cause a processing unit to execute a method for determining access to multimedia content from an entry identifier in a network domain comprising a total number of entry identifiers, said method comprising:
- retrieving an access number n indicating a number of entry identifiers selected from said total number which may access said multimedia content;
- obtaining an evaluation rule based on determining a category of said multimedia content;
- accessing a domain list linked to said category of said multimedia content, wherein said domain list indicates at least some of said entry identifiers in said network domain;
- and
- determining that said entry identifier may access said multimedia content if said entry identifier is an entry identifier within a range of n entries in said domain list determined by the evaluation rule linked to said category of said multimedia content.
A device for determining access to multimedia content from an entry identifier in a network domain, said device comprising:
- a processing unit, and
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium coupled to the processing unit storing instructions that, when executed by the processing unit, cause the device to:
- retrieve an access number n indicating a number of entry identifiers selected from said total number which may access said multimedia content;
- obtain an evaluation rule based on determining a category of said multimedia content;
- access a domain list linked to said category of said multimedia content, wherein said domain list indicates at least some of said total number of entry identifiers in said network domain;
- and
- determine if said entry identifier may access said multimedia content by evaluating if said entry identifier is an entry identifier within a range n entries in said domain list determined by the evaluation rule linked to said category of said multimedia content.
