IPTV STB remote management architecture according to user usage pattern

Recently, several research activities on services in IPTV have been reported, and the concern with user´s environment has been growing. In this paper, we propose the IPTV STB remote management system which recommends services according to the user´s usage pattern by resolving STB fault and configuration. It infers user intention by integrating user input from STB. Also, it recommends the proper service or configuration to the user by user pattern. Therefore. It will be helpful for user-oriented STB by reporting user usage, inferring intention, and resolving conflicts.
