Problems solved by technology

[0014] However, due to the needs of IPTV service operation, IPTV service providers often need to dynamically control the bound and unbound applications running on the terminal. However, in the prior art, the application manager can only receive application description information and control the execution of the application, but cannot dynamically execute the control strategy of the main IPTV service provider for the application running on the terminal

Embodiment 1

[0069] figure 2 This is a system architecture diagram for implementing control of applications in the present invention, in which,

[0070] The policy description information transmission device is located at the IPTV server, and uses unicast or multicast to transmit the application control policy description information, which is hereinafter referred to as the policy description information for short. The policy description information includes at least the uniform resource locator (URL) from which the policy file can be obtained, and the version number of the policy file. The policy description information is included in the application description information, and its structure is shown in Table 2:

[0071] name

description

Application unique identifier

Unique identifier to identify the application

Application organization unique identifier

The unique identifier of the organization to which the application belongs

Application Name

The name of the app

App version...

Embodiment 2

[0117] The system architecture based on this embodiment is the same as the first embodiment. Set the policy file as follows:

[0118]

[0119] 1.0

[0120]

[0121] 0x2C:0x10

[0122] 0

[0123]

[0124]

[0125]

[0126] 0x01-0x1F:0x1E-0xFF

[0127] 0

[0128] 19:00-21:00

[0129]

[0130]

[0131] 0x21:0x3C

[0132] 0

[0133] 18:00-22:00

[0134]

[0135]

[0136] The format of the application identification is: organization ID: application ID, the organization ID is a globally unified 32-bit manufacturer ID, and the application ID is 16 bits; action 0 indicates that the application is prohibited from running.

[0137] Strategy 1 means that applications identified as 0x2C:0x10 are prohibited from running; Strategy 2 means that all applications whose organization ID ranges from 0x01-0x1F and application ID ranges from 0x1E-0xFF are prohibited from running between 19:00-21:00; Strategy 3 means Applications marked as 0x21:0x3C are prohibited from running between 18:00-22:...

Embodiment 3

[0150] Set the policy file as:

[0151]

[0152] 1.0

[0153]

[0154] 0x20, U

[0155] 0

[0156]

[0157]

[0158]

[0159] 0x20, B

[0160] 0

[0161] 19:00-21:00

[0162]

[0163]

[0164] Where U represents an unbound application, and B represents a bound application. Policy 1 indicates that the unbound application of the service provider whose ID is 0x20 is prohibited from running. Policy 2 means that the bound application of the service provider with ID 0x20 is prohibited from running from 19:00-21:00.

[0165] Then the steps to update the application strategy are:

[0166] 1. The policy file is downloaded to the terminal device;

[0167] 2. The strategy engine writes the strategy information in the strategy file into the strategy database;

[0168] 3. The application control module receives application description information or user input events;

[0169] 4. The policy engine filters the received information according to the policies in the policy database. For example,...

Abstract

This invention discloses a sytem controlling application including a service end and a terminal, in which, the service end includes a transmitting device for strategy description information and a stategy server, the terminal includes an application manager and a downloading module. This invention also discloses a server realizing application control including transmission device for strategy information and a server. This invention also discloses a terminal realizing control to application including a manager and a receiving module. This invention also discloses a method for controlling the application including: the terminal gets strategy information controlling the application and stores it locally to refresh the local strategy information based on the application control strategy describing information sent by the service end to control the application by the strategy information.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to network television technology, in particular to a system and method for controlling applications. Background technique [0002] At present, the mainstream IP TV (IPTV) operating model is that IPTV service providers provide IPTV users with terminal equipment for free, while IPTV service providers provide services from different content providers. [0003] Some programs provided by content providers include applications that are bound to the program, such as interactive and rewarded Q&A applications that are played simultaneously with a certain program; service providers also provide some applications that are not tied to the program, such as instant messaging, Email and other applications. The application management module on the IPTV terminal is responsible for the life cycle management of these applications. [0004] figure 1 It is the structure diagram of the server and the terminal in the IPTV system, where the application descript...
