Abstract
A system for managing a Remote User Interface (RUI) includes a Remote User Interface Server (RUIS) for sending an update message indicating that an RUI list including at least one RUI has been updated, and transmitting updated RUI list information upon receiving a request for updated RUI list information; and a Remote User Interface Client (RUIC) for sending a request for updated RUI list information to the RUIS upon recognizing from the update message received from the RUIS that an RUI list has been updated, receiving the updated RUI list information from the RUIS in response to the request, and updating existing RUI list information based on the updated RUI list information.
Claims16
An apparatus for managing a remote user interface (RUI) in a remote user interface server (RUIS), the apparatus comprising:
- a controller configured to determine whether an RUI list including at least one RUI has been updated and to generate an update message if the RUI list has been updated;
- a transceiver configured to send the update message to a remote user interface client (RUIC) if the RUI list has been updated, to receive a request message for updated RUI list information from the RUIC, and to transmit updated RUI list information to the RUIC upon receiving the request message for updated RUI list information in response to the update message;
- and
- a memory for storing instructions for the controller,
- wherein the request message for the updated RUI list information is transmitted from the RUIC based on at least one of location information included in the update message sent to the RUIC and predetermined location information.
A method for managing a remote user interface (RUI) in a remote user interlace server (RUIS), the method comprising:
- determining whether an RUI list including at least one RUI has been updated;
- generating an update message and sending the update message to a remote user interface client (RUIC) if the RUI list has been updated;
- receiving a request message for updated RUI list information from the RUIC;
- and
- transmitting updated RUI list information to the RUIC upon receiving the request message for updated RUI list information in response to the update message,
- wherein the request message for updated RUI list information is transmitted from the RUIC based on at least one of location information included in the update message sent from the RUIC and predetermined location information.
An apparatus for managing a remote user interface (RUI) in a remote user interface client (RUIC), the apparatus comprising:
- a transceiver configured to receive, from a remote user interface server (RUIS), an update message indicating that an RUI list including at least one updated RUI has been updated, to send a request message for updated RUI list information to the RUIS in response to the update message, and to receive the updated RUI list information from the RUIS in response to the request message;
- a controller configured to update RUI list information based on the updated RUI list information;
- and
- a memory for storing instructions for the controller,
- wherein the request message for the updated RUI list information is transmitted to the RUIS based on at least one of location information included in the update message received from the RUIS and predetermined location information.
A method for managing a remote user interface (RUI) in a remote user interface client (RUIC), the method comprising:
- receiving, from a remote user interface server (RUIS), an update message indicating that an RUI list including at least one RUI has been updated;
- sending a request message for updated RUI list information to the RUIS in response to the update message;
- receiving the updated RUI list information from the RUIS in response to the request message;
- and
- updating RUI list information based on the updated RUI list information,
- wherein the request message for the updated RUI list information is transmitted to the RUIS based on at least one of location information included in the update message received from the RUIS and predetermined location information.
